November 2024 update
Presidents comments,
Still waiting for list of VV license holders, this is frustrating, but other complexes have been waiting longer.
You will have seen the Christmas lights and tree are up on the complex, a slightly different configuration this year. We have some Poinsettia plants arriving soon for the Solarium, the committee agreed to reduce the number of plants and limit them to the solarium area, as the ones that are placed up on other floors do not get watered and die off very quickly.
A thank you to John Fisher for taking the time to produce the new style night security reporting forms, that are now being used to report issues on our complex at night.
On behalf of The Heights Committee, we wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, and all the best for 2025 !!.
Complex issues/work updates.
We have a problem with the front gardens by the main entrance/garage to the complex, the automatic watering system is working ok, but the water is immediately draining away out of the gardens and down in to the street. To locate the leak would mean having to remove all of the soil, so we have reverted to manual watering this area.
To speed up the process of contacting owners who have problem tenants or holiday guests, I am contacting owners direct and telling them to deal with the issues, its often the case that by the time they get to know about problems ” their guests” have already gone home.
If you use a mobility scooter it can’t be left in a walkway, these have to be kept clear at all times. If you use the charging points in B block garage, please remove as soon as it’s charged so the charging points are available to other users.
A lady who parked her mobility scooter by the Basuras, had 2 batteries stolen last week, it was captured by the CCTV camera, so we have the video, so far the police have yet to respond!
I had a call from an owner who found a dog had pee’d up her store room door, it had gone under the door and into the room, please do not let your dogs foul on the complex, it’s disgusting, once again I ask all owners to add a no pet clause to your rental contracts.
We have seen 2 instances of people covering the sensor to keep the garage door open, shortly after this the door failed and we had to get the company in to make the repair. if you see this happening please remove the item that’s covering the sensor, normally sticky tape.
The committee did a walk about the complex, and made a note of areas that need repairs, also several apartments had bags of rubbish outside their front doors which encourages cats and insects, if your not going to take it to the Basuras straight away, then leave it inside your apartment not outside.
“A block” lift glass panel has been reported to OTIS for repair and renewal of the Emergency details/numbers.
The swimming pool.
At some point , we are going to have to close the pools for 4-5 days to complete the pool surround, it’s dependent on the weather, but we will give a weeks notice before its closed.
Again we have people in the pool after dark, which is against the rules, also if you see someone wedge the pool gate open, please point out it’s against Spanish law.
Last Sunday I had a call from an owner, people had a large inflatable in the pool, I was in town so I asked the owner to speak to these people herself, she did and it was removed. As I can’t resond to every issue, if you see people breaking the complex rules, please point it out to them, they probably are not aware, as most owners who rent them out do not keep a set of rules in their apartment for obvious reasons !!.
You can contact me during the day if you have an issue on 683 165 416.
Library open every Wednesday from 10am to 11am, located by the post boxes.
Security.
Emergency Night/disturbance, starts at 11pm till 7am, you can call them on 671 14 66 16, please use them.
Thank you for taking the time to read this update.
Thanks Steve
