Tony Dennis

It is with great sadness that I have to report the passing of Tony Dennis.  Tony has been an Owner on Playa Bastian since 1982.  Tony has been a great support for myself as President with his great Knowledge of Playa Bastian and he will be sadly missed by his Wife Joan and Family, and many friends on the Community and the Island.

We have started a programme to infill some of the rather bare looking garden areas with more colourful shrubs which will also require work with the pipes so the water goes more precisely where it needs to be and are taking advice from a local garden centre. The plan is to start early this year with a few small areas to ensure that they get well established and then to progress over the year.

There are limited places for new larger trees as most properties have been extended since the 1980s and we have to be aware of the potential for root damage. At the moment we are unable to take further action with any potentially infected trees as we need council inspection before consent will be granted and this is taking some months. However we are still planning to start introducing new trees in addition to shrubs later in the year. The objective is to create a more attractive long lasting garden environment for all.

The heat pumps for the Pool at the Ts and Vs area need to be replaced. Owing to significant price increases from January 2022 we have ordered new Heat Pumps, and installation should take place in the next 2 months. According to our information from the Technician the Pumps should be quieter than the existing pumps.

A very Happy and Healthy New Year 2022 to everyone.
