28th September

On Thursday when we had heavy rain the main sewer that runs from Casa Verdes down towards the beach became blocked. This sewer is on our land between the bungalows and the hotel, the blockage flooded the adjacent area. This pipe takes all the sewerage from Casa Verdes. It must also take a lot of the rainwater although it shouldn’t, but according to Luis it was like a river. 

Miguel came in during his holiday again and helped free the blockage. As a consequence we are installing extra manholes to help make the next blockage easier to deal with. This is the third time Miguel has interrupted his holiday to help out. 

The TV’s also went off on the same day. Some owners are suggesting that this incident is connected to the Internet. There is no connection between the two. The TV’s were down owing to an electrical failure, a completely different problem. The cable has been replaced and the TV’s are now working. The cost to the community is approx. €400.00 plus labour. Part of the reason for this cost is an extension was built over a community cable crushing the ducts.

This is yet another example of sub standard building work being carried out on Zone D and the community picking up all of the bill.
