Recycling units contamination

Location Top left hand side of Playa Bastian.

Early this last week 3 bags of household rubbish were removed from the blue paper and cardboard unit, and later in the week, 6 bags were removed. Today, Sunday a further 4 bags were removed. They were mainly in supermarket bags with one lilac bin bag on each occasion. It would appear that they are all from the same person and whoever is doing this does not know where the Basura bins are located.

There is also a recurring problem of household rubbish being dumped in the waste bins around the site.

For clarification the units are:

Green – Glass.

Blue – Paper and cardboard

Yellow- Cans and metal food containers, Tetra packs and similar drinks containers, Plastic cleaning product bottles, Supermarket bags and soft plastic from food containers, Plastic water and drinks bottles, Plastic yoghurt pots and similar containers.

Please squash water and drinks bottles to maximise capacity.

The Basura bins are located in the walled area against the fence.

The committee ask for your support in this matter by you ensuring your guests and family members disposing of the waste are aware of the correct place to put it.

Thank you for your cooperation

Dear Owners,

We have received several reports of suspicious individuals wandering around Playa Bastian, possibly intending to occupy or rob a property.

It seems they have been leaving marks to indicate some properties which are vacant. (Eg tape over doorbells)

Some owners have seen them and have chased them away and notified the police, which, we believe has been crucial in preventing break-in.

Please, if you see anything suspicious, act immediately and help us all. (Photos, videos, descriptions all potentially useful)

Our staff are alert, but the individuals rarely appear during working hours.

The police do not provide security in a private complex, however, they will come if someone notifies them of seeing someone suspicious on the premises.

As before we recommend that all owners arrange their own security/alarm service for their properties, especially those that are regularly unoccupied.

Thank you

Your Playa Bastian Committee
