We should never start work on the main roads in my opinion because the council is responsible for fixing that problem. But Sector A & B (for example) could actually activate the COO's and start collecting funds for regular maintenance on their poligonos (not maintenance on infrastructure of the public roads!! That is and remains the council's responsibility). Streetlights which went dark during the previous 20 years can be fixed and whatever improvements people would want can be achieved.
People point fingers at the council constantly but that did not release anybody from their responsibility to contribute to the COO's of the different poligonos. Alot of people use the argument that they were not aware or that they can't do anything until the council finishes everything. I don't buy that argument. I believe people were very comfortable paying nothing. It's even being used as an argument for buying on Camposol: "no community fees". Meanwhile, volunteers have been working their butts of for years to make some positive changes for Camposol while other residents sit on their hands, complain, do nothing and turn parts of Camposol into a ghetto because they simply don't care anymore. The other side of the coin is that longtime residents have saved 1000's of euros, money that should have been invested in Camposol. I understand alot of people are still heavily invested in the past because they are disappointed about what they didn't get. I get it and feel for them. At the same time their property value has gone up in those 20 years while not investing what they should have to maintain Camposol. I understand people are disappointed and angry for all that has happened (or didn't happen) in the past. But should that block all the positive development that Camposol can have? How about the people who have been here for 5 years or less? It's not exactly fair to them that a percentage of Camposol residents don't want to move an inch over an issue they were never part of. Some people actually want to invest in Camposol and its future. Within 10 years Camposol can be so much better than it already is with all the positive effects connected to it.......if only we would take some matters into our own hands and start taking our responsibility as well.
Don't get me wrong, I am not attacking you in any way. This is just my general opinion about the entire matter.
