Called into the Town Hall due to a couple of meetings and it is getting even more hectic, people dashing about all over the place, doors opening and closing. Discovered that Candido, Manolo , Isa and Luiz were all discussing an inform received this morning giving advice on how we should go about presenting our PGOU. Apparently we have to have a pleno, to agree to publish the outline plan. Then we await the 4 weeks publics viewing of it and take any objections etc onboard before approving it or otherwise. Which makes sense anyway. As soon as we get together for the 1st Pleno I will post on here.
Secondly I was made aware that one of the competing parties in the upcoming elections are holding meetings to present their list and so, I thought, I would ask what we were doing in that respect. Candido told me that there are such very strong restrictions, on such meetings, by law, they are not allowed to mention anything which could be construed as electioneering and so we will not be doing anything like that, until the law allows us to. We are in the process of deciding the best way to present our candidates.
Thirdly, the Town Hall, with the assistance of the Dipalme, have organised a country walk on Sunday May the 1st. Meet at the Renfe building where a breakfast will be served, depart for the walk with a Guide at 10.0am return at 2.0pm for a lunch. All this is included for 10 euros. It is hoped to be one of many future walks organised around the countryside of the Almanzora valley. I have a supply of the forms if anyone wishes to take part I could email a copy r deliver one. Copies are also available at the Town Hall in Zurgena. All that you need to do is take the form to the bank pay the 10euros and return it to the Town Hall.
Lastly the new bowling green being built in La Alfoquia is coming on and from the feedback I have had, from some people in the know, it looks like it will be an excellent facility (I am led to believe that someone in the South of Spain is looking to get the European Championships) Which would be a real feather in the cap for Zurgena area.
We are meeting daily at 5.0pm at the moment in relation to election strategy and matters. Other matters and questions still outstanding will try again later this week.
PS Does anyone know a David Gary CARTER from Llanos del Peral. I have a letter for him which was the wrong postbox.
Jim,
ReplyDeleteThis was lifted from your blog of March the 2nd:
4. Bowling Green and Palaces tarmac and lights. Whilst I was there Candido rang the man in charge of the contracts for these works and was promised that the work on these projects would be starting in the next week or two.
A week or two, does not equate to six weeks as in the non appearance of any contractors to install the road or street lights in Palaces!
But then, I suppose the road and street lights we have been waiting a number of years for, aren't seen as quite as important as a bowling green!
Almost to the day, the mayor four years ago, promised one of my neighbours he would get the road done!
Maybe we can look forward to another four years of broken promises.

Ted, Received your comment whilst we were working in the office this evening. I immediately posed the question to Candido who contacted the contractor by telephone. The contractor has 3 pieces of work to do for the Town Hall. The bowling green, the barriers on the road between Cucador and Llanos del Peral. He has started on the bowling green but will be sending his men to Palaces either during the last week in April or first week in May.
ReplyDeleteThe main reason for the delay was the fact that it took the Diputacion over 18 months to assign the contract.
Jim,
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for your speedy reply.
It's also helpful to have some notion of when the work will start, as access to and from all our properties, will no doubt be somewhat restricted.
Ted
I will hopefully get to know in advance and if I do I will certainly let you all know
