Builder’s skip not yet removed

Posted on 26/04/201927/04/2019 by Admin

For several weeks a builder’s skip has been on our urbanisation while work has taken place on two properties. The work was completed before Easter but the skip has not been removed. Sadly these skips, if left for any length of time, attract fly tipping and this skip is no exception. It’s attracted sheets of polystyrene, cardboard and assorted rubbish to be dumped despite the skip being full to the brim. As a result this has been blowing up and down the road leaving a dreadful mess, leading to several complaints.

Fibre optics conduit work is complete

Posted on 08/03/201908/03/2019 by Admin

I am pleased to report that the fibre optic conduit work to enable fibre optic internet to the houses above the garages has now been completed and there are two access points inside the garage to serve each row of houses above the garages. I am requested by the president of the garages to ask that house owners who want fibre optic internet to get together to work with Teleast so we don’t have installations going on one after another. It probably will reduce costs too. It must be clearly understood that while the community has paid for the conduit work and access into the garage, any future costs must be borne by the owners who want fibre optics in accordance with the AGM decision.

Pool repairs and fibre optics

Posted on 05/03/201905/03/2019 by Admin

I am pleased to report that work has now finished on repairs to our eastern pool which has been filled and is ready for use – for those hardy enough to brave 12C water ! Our maintenance company has pressure washed the concrete surround and tiles and the whole area is better than I have ever seen it. Well done maintenance company A:L: Limpiezas y Servicos. Work on the repairs to the western pool will start next week and will be complete before Easter. Today that pool is being drained. Meanwhile work has started today on the conduit laying under the roadway on the western side of the garages, so that people in the houses above can have fibre optic internet if they wish.

Brexit : Spain’s Decree on Brexit

I am pleased to tell owners that the re-grouting of the eastern pool is almost complete. Our maintenance company A.L. Limpiezas y Servicios have done an excellent job and the tiling and steps looks good. There is a small area of steps to retile and the pool will then be refilled. The company has given a five-year guarantee on this work. Once filled work will start on the regrouting of the western pool. It is important that all pool users obey the rules and shower before getting in the pool and every time they re-enter to wash off any sun oils, etc. These can seriously affect the chemical levels in the water and leads to damage to the grouting if not rectified quickly. Work will start soon on the repair work along the western road to fill the gap between the roadway and garage wall. This will include the laying of a conduit from the communications box to entry points within the garage to allow owners to have fibre optics to homes above garages. Finally I have to report disgusting occurrences within our urbanisation over recent weeks. On several Saturdays human excrement has been found complete with soiled toilet paper, close to parked cars and the likely culprit is a market trader – because it always happens on Saturdays. I shall be discussing with our administrator what action can be taken – by making the town hall and any market trader organisation aware of what is happening. It goes without saying we would like to catch the culprit, so those owners who are up and about early on Saturday mornings let us know if you see anything untoward.
