Met with Candido this morning for a lengthy chat about outstanding issues.
1. Budget, still at a delicate stage and we need all the councillors to meet with the Secretary to see what we can and cannot do legally regarding the apportionment of the budget to cover various issues which are a source of discussion between PP and PA.
2. WiFi The engineer has agreed to take on the maintenance of the system but has to locate an flaw in the system which is open to hacking before he can take it over. If he cannot locate the flaw we will have to reboot the entire system. I asked for a timescale and Candido said he did not know.
3. Candido has not had time this week due to meetings to obtain further quotes re the street plans. We will hopefully go and get these on Monday after the budget meeting.
4. The piece of land between Cuesta de los Pinos and Los Llanos which has been cleared and services installed is for the cultivation of Aloe Vera plants.
5. The Ballabona to palaces road is the responsibility of the Diputacion but we do know that contracts were tendered for and it is anticipated that work should start on repairing that road soon! The contract was worth over 2 million euros.
6. I had been asked if there was scope for the TH to establish a legal rubbish dump and recycling plant. Candido informed me that we have applied on a number of occasions for this but the Dept Medio Ambiente has refused and in fact the nearest legal rubbish tip is in Huercal Overa!
7. The Court Case which is to be held, after adjournment from March, is in relation to 9 properties in Los Llanos Del Peral which were built by Tisan Sureste. Candido believes the occupants know.
8. I referred to him the state of the weeds and over growth along the road to Los Llanos and the access to it. He said that the workers have their hands full at the moment but he will bear that area in mind when allocating work.
9. People had asked me why more IBI bills had been issued for Arboleas than Zurgena. Candido showed me on Goolzoom the areas which the Diputacion have marked as accepted for billing (it is shown in pink on the Catastro map on goolzoom) and it is obvious that they have just not got around to doing some areas.
10. I asked again about the track from Palaces to Solas which we asked to be levelled at least by a tractor ages ago and which had not yet been done. He immediately rang the builder who was going to do it and he has agreed to do it in the next 3 working days.
That was all we had time for today but at least some progress on some issues. I will update further next week when we have, hopefully sorted the budget, one way or another.
As an aside I understand that today Sampo Pentilla has resigned his post as PP councillor for finance. I am not sure who is next in their line yet.
