Burglaries - Page 4

It's a proven fact that when we hit economic bad times, the poorest are affected first and most. We have just come out of a 2 year Covid pandemic which has affected the entire world and Spain is no exception. Since Spain is not exactly one of the richest countries in Europe it was affected more than other European countries. We rolled right into the next crisis with the war in Ukraine and high inflation. Who is affected first? The poorest people......and some of the poorest people of Spain live in the Mazarrón area. Camposol needs younger residents (people in their 40's and 50's) who are still able and willing to work. And Camposol residents need to understand that maintenance costs money and you cannot expect volunteers to do everything for free. We are used to different standards than the Spanish people as well so you can't expect the council to do as we please. So it's pretty simple: people have to pay up. The best example in our area that shows how things can be improved is the Mazarrón Country Club. Why? Paying a montly fee is one of the reasons. Also there is more diversity in ownership over there.

We didn’t buy on Camposol as sadly heard so many bad reports about the place . Years ago it was a great place to be times change people come and go and crime is higher because people are desperate 

" A HANDFUL OF BURGLARIES" really, please do not comment on something you know nothing about.

For your information, from the end of November 2021 to May 2022 there were 142 Burglaries, on D Sector alone, Yes 142 !!

That is a statistic the security group had and there ire probably a few they do know of.

A handful of burglaries, I Dont Think So.

I have no doubt that the security company gave you this number, its not right, they are after the business, big numbers will scare people, and drive up business.

I doubt 142 break ins.

If I am wrong, I stand corrected.

But I doubt it

I agree with the reguirement needed for the security on Camposol, and I would gladly contribute to the suggestion of a police station, but on the flip side most of the residents on Camposol cannot condone the method of having to pay for a police station,  all residents living in mazarron   pay their taxes, mazarron town have a police station, as a urbanization in mazarron the community should expect and get what ever it takes to be safe, it would be interesting to know how much of the taxes paid by the residents on Camposol are spent on Camposol, there are no lighting hence the high crime rate, the roads are a joke, I think the town hall is quite happy to sit back and let the volunteers maintain Camposol at their own expense, these are questions that should be asked at the coming meeting 

Agree,

Problems are world wide.

But we must protect ourselves by all means.

Agree.

No IBI as I was informed is spent on Camposol, it goes to regional government, many say that the upgrading of P/Mazarron, as you will see what is being done is our IBI money, others say no, its money from IBI payed by residents of P/Mazarron.

The only way of knowing, and I have asked the question, is the council, to show us a detailed account of expenditure for Camposol, and P/Mazzarron, and where the funds came from.

The chance of them giving out that, is as much chance of the UK sorting out its problems.  

After reading all posted messages concerning Camposol, and adding my own comments, I think Peter C has made a bold and interesting suggestion...Denouncing the council, ballsy,,, but it's the best way forward

Just for reference, in the UK black tarmac costs roughly £45-50 per sq. That's just the tarmac, no kerbstones or subsidence dug up and sorted. And that's for a driveway, I would guess I highway requires a thicker amount, what I'm getting at is it's gonna cost millions to sort camposol, and we need the council's help.
