Western Pool Closure due to Dog Fouling

Posted on by Admin

Dear owners,

Further to my previous message regarding dog fouling of our community walkways. We also have selfish and inconsiderate residents who think that it is ok to let their dog defecate on the Western Pool grass area. 

This behaviour is not only selfish and disgusting but is also thoughtless and unhygienic for other residents wanting to use the pool. 

Therefore the gates of the pooI, outside of the official opening hours, will be closed with a chain and lock.

Could I also ask that all owners that witness their neighbours walking their dogs in community areas such as walkways or the pool area who do not pick up their dogs faeces, please advise the Administrators. Then an official complaint can be made with the Guardia Civil.

If this problem continues, then the Guardia will be notified and they will take action against the offending resident.

Eastern Pool has now reopened

Posted on by Admin

Good Morning All

I am pleased to advise you that the Eastern Pool has now reopened as of today.

The pool pump has been repaired under guarantee.  Unfortunately it has taken over a week to clean and get the chemical balances correct in the pool for use.

That is should anyone wish to swim in the much cooler water temperatures !

News Update : Eastern Pool problems

Posted on by Admin

Hello Everyone,

I write to advise that we have been having problems with the water quality in the eastern pool.

This is due to a fault within the pool pump. The bearings in the pump will need replacing.  However the pump is still within the guarantee and the provider of the pump has been contacted to deal with the fault.

This may take several weeks to resolve. 

The Eastern pool therefore will remain closed until the pump has been repaired and reinstalled.

The Western pool is fully functional and can be used if anyone is brave enough to swim in the cooler water temperatures this time of year.

We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause and we will notify you again once the eastern pool reopens.

Regards,

Jos Whitehouse

Problems with the Eastern Pool

Posted on by Admin

Yesterday, you should have received an email from the Administrator with news about the Eastern pool but just in case you didn’t here is a reminder of what they said

There were problems over the weekend with the Eastern pool making it very dirty. This is because the pool pump has failed and, therefore, the water has not been cleaned properly.

Yesterday, the maintenance company came to carry out treatment, clean the water and restore the levels. It was expected to take effect throughout the day. However, until the motor is fixed and reinstalled, the pool will be closed, as the values necessary to make it safe for bathers cannot be ensured.

It is therefore completely prohibited to access or bathe in the pool until further notice. If anyone wants to swim, please, use the west pool.

If you didn’t receive this email from the Administrator then please contact them to check whether you are on their mailing list otherwise you may miss out on important updates to Community News.

Closure of the Western Pool

Posted on by Admin

Hello Everyone
We have to carry out some essential repair works to the Western Pool in the next few days.  Therefore it will be necessary to close the pool from Thursday 24 September.
The pool will be drained in order to repair loose tiles on the floor of the pool and the rest of the Pool will be examined whilst empty.
The Eastern Pool will remain open.  Please continue to adhere to the cleaning procedures in and around the pool in line with the required Covid procedures.
Keep well and safe
Regards
Jos

Western pool closure

I regret to inform you that with immediate effect the Western Pool will be closed for cleaning as unfortunately faeces has been found in the bottom of the pool.
The pool will be closed for several days and I will notify you when the pool can be reopened.
The Eastern pool remains open with a maximum number of 6 people allowed at one time.  Can I ask that you all be respectful of each other and only book one hour sessions.
It has also come to my attention that children were in the Western pool unaccompanied by an adult. This is strictly against pool rules and any unaccompanied children will be asked to leave the pool area.
Can I ask that I be be notified immediately if this is seen again.
Regards
Jos

A reminder of pool rules

Posted on by Admin
Hello Everyone
I would like to send a reminder of a few of the rules of the pools that are not always being complied with. The pool opening times are 0900 to 2100.  If anyone is in the pool after 2100 they will be asked to leave. Can everyone please use the sanitizer provided and clean areas they use before leaving the pool. Such as shower areas, rails and pool edges where they may have sat or lay on.
Footwear to be worn at all times when not in the pools.
No toys in the pools this includes balls and water pistols and inflatables (inflatables for small children for the aid of swimming/ floating only allowed).
Please only book one hour sessions.  If there is no one booked in for a session then a further session can be booked.
Once a session is booked and you cannot attend your must cancel that session so that someone else can use it.
Finally if you do not attend within the first 10 minutes of your booked session then it can be cancelled and used by other pool users.
We need to be fair to everyone that wishes to use the pools.

Pool opening times

Posted on by Admin

Hello everyone

Hope you are all keeping safe and well.
The pools have been open almost a week now and community members have been offering their opinions on the sessions and opening hours.
I am very willing to listen to your opinions and act accordingly.
It has therefore been decided to change the opening hours of the pools from 0900 to 1800 to 0900 to 2100 from Thursday 23 July. Each session will now be one hour duration and will offer more flexibility to pool users.
The rota of the pool sessions will be every three days. This is to prevent some pool users from booking weeks in advance.
The new rota will be put out on the third day of the old rota.
Can I please remind all pool users that they must wipe down every area they have touched. That is the shower area and hand rails. A mop and bucket hand sanitizer and paper towels are provided.
Regards
Jos
