The Almuñécar branch of the far-left party, Podemos Unidas, will bring up the question of the strong smell of sewage coming from EBAR near Las Góndolas.
Under Construction in 2009
The difference between an EDAR and an EBAR is that the former is a treatment plant and the other a collection and pumping station, linking the town with the sewage treatment plant – that’s to say, the EDAR.
The EBAR next to the Las Góndolas apartment complex was completed at the end of the first decade of this century but has continually had problems with the smell coming from it, especially in the summer when it is ‘busiest.’
As this infrastructure, by necessity, is on the beach road linking Almuñécar to Velilla, the affect on nearby apartments and chiringuitos, for example, is unpleasant and prejudicial to business.
Podemos is surprised, they say, that this situation has become so ‘normalised’ without the relevant administration taking steps to remedy the situation.
Podemos insists that the Town Hall puts pressure on the Mancomunidad (under whose responsibility the installations fall) to rectify the situation, thus ending the Town Hall’s “habitual passivity” before the problem.
Update: the Plenary Meeting was held yesterday and the motion was approved unanimously.
