Present: Bo, Paco, Francisco, Tony, Cherry, Paul, Mick
Rest of Committee: In England, Madrid or pre-arranged visits.
This meeting was arranged because of extra-ordinary situation with cuts to services and demands by Administrators for immediate payment for water and electricity.
Meetings were arranged during the week with Lawyers for the Administrators and San Jose’s Department for licence applications and with the Head of Elche’s Urbanismo Department. The results of these meetings were as follows:
Agreement has been reached by San José and Elche Council for all licences for the start of work. We are only talking about work required for Habitation Certificates only.
All funds which San José requires will be in place hopefully by 4th June 2009 and work is expected to start by approximately 15th June 2009.
The first work to be completed is the sewerage; all pipes will be cleaned thoroughly then connected to the main sewerage plant. Once the work starts it will be completed i.e. roads and lights, without interruption (with the exception of August holidays) until completion which is estimated at 5 months.
The swimming pools have not been maintained recently and we have asked for this to be resumed as soon as possible. San José agreed they will maintain the pools for the summer months. We have a meeting with San José again this week regarding the pools. We think this is very important during the summer months for residents, visiting owners and people renting.
WATER AND ELECTRCITY
• The Administrators have demanded that we pay, from now until work is completed, for all water and electricity. The reason for this is that the money they have is to be spent on the works needed for us to get our habitation certificates. An outstanding bill for electricity will be paid, from the Community Account on Monday 1st June 2009 of €9.500
We have no choice but to pay this, otherwise the service will be cut to the whole site.
CAN WE ASK EVERYONE TO CONSERVE WATER AND ELECTRICITY DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS – IT IS IN OUR OWN INTEREST AS WE WILL BE PAYING THE BILLS!!
All Swimming Pool owners please arrange for their own supply of water to top up their pools through the summer months.
MONTHLY PAYMENTS
The monthly bill for electricity is approximately €11,000 and water is €1,500.
To ensure we have enough money to cover these bills the following payments will be required:
Full time residents and rented properties will pay €70 per month.
For all others to pay €40 per month.
The €40 has been agreed because this is the minimum standing charge for water and electricity in Spain.
If people visit, or, properties rented for one month or more, then the full €70 should be paid. This requires honesty and integrity for all owners.
The €20 Community Charge should still continue to be paid until the General Meeting in July.
NO MONEY – NO SERVICES – NO EL PINET
This demand for money will hopefully only be until December, and is in the interest of everyone who has property at El Pinet to pay for water and electricity used in order for us to receive our Certificates of Habitation as soon as possible.
The money should be paid monthly, starting from 1st June 2009, preferably by Direct Debit. Please ensure payment is made before the end of the month. The €70/€40 should be paid into San Jose’s Administrators Account:

The money paid into San Jose’s Administrators Account can be accessed by the Committee through a user name and password, in order to verify what payments have been made. It will be transparent and no secrets.
The Administrators have informed us that non-payers will be identified and all money owing will be demanded before connection of services will be allowed.
The Community have asked for a list of non-payers to be displayed on all notice boards and the Blog.
This difficult situation we have been in for some years is hopefully now coming to an end. With everyone’s co-operation we can see this project through to completion soon. Isn’t this what we all want!

REUNIÓN JUNTA DIRECTIVA. 30 DE MAYO DE 2009 (SÀBADO)
Día: Sábado, 30 de Mayo de 2009
Hora: 10 horas
Lugar: Casa de Bo
Asistentes: Bo. Francisco, Paul, Cherry, Paco, Garry.
Asuntos tratados:
1º Servicio de Agua y Luz.
En la reunión con San José del pasado miércoles, 27 de Mayo –asistieron Francisco y Paco- los Administradores insistieron en la imposibilidad de atender por su parte el pago de las facturas, por lo que hay que suponer que los cortes de los servicios se seguirán produciendo. De hecho hay dos facturas pendientes de agua y de luz que vencen la semana próxima.
La Junta acuerda hacer frente al pago de esas facturas para evitar que se vuelvan a producir situaciones pasadas de falta de luz y agua. Se utilizarán los sobrantes de los 60 euros que hay en la cuenta de la Comunidad y lo que pudiera faltar se aportará por ésta y le será resarcido posteriormente.
2º) Fosa séptica y piscinas
Francisco y Paco informan a la Junta de que en la reunión del día 27 de mayo San José admitió que va a continuar haciéndose cargo de las facturas de la fosa séptica y del mantenimiento de las piscinas. Para esto último solicitó a los propietarios que se les facilite la entrada a las mismas.
La Junta acuerda ponerse en contacto con los servicios de jardinería de San José para que de la forma mas rápida vuelvan a realizar los trabajos de mantenimiento.
3º) Solicitud a los Propietarios del pago de una cantidad para colaborar con el pago de las facturas de Agua y Luz.
A la vista de que los Administradores no aceptan, bajo ningún concepto, seguir abonando estas facturas, y entendiendo como prioritario el mantenimiento de estos servicios, la Junta estudia la posibilidad de volver a solicitar a los propietarios una cantidad en concepto de agua y luz diferenciando, en esta ocasión, entre residentes y los que no lo son.
Se acuerda solicitar para los meses de Junio y Julio: 70 euros mensuales para los residentes, y 40 euros mensuales para los no residentes, bien entendido que se considerarán también residentes aquellos que ocupen sus viviendas durante la época de vacaciones.
