Strange you should ask that?

Just found this on Facebook Possibly explains the work on the pumping building near the Golf Club


Costa Esuri Golf Club
El Ayuntamiento de Ayamonte, Martinsa Fadesa y la Empresa constructora H2O Integral Service, actual gestora del Campo de Golf, han ultimado un acuerdo para llevar a cabo la ejecución de las obras de mejora de la Urbanización de Costa Esuri.

The city council ayamonte martinsa fadesa, and the company comprehensive h2o service, current managerial from the field of golf, have completed an agreement to carry out the execution of the works of the improvement of the urbanisation of costa esuri.

Who/ what body of people....CERA ? ......keep an eye on this. It would be good to know that the €5K bond (was that the sum ?) IS going to be spent on Esuri and spent wisely.

ji The Mayor in his many promises to ESURIANS said that the number one priority for the spend of the €5m was the water works. Who knows if anything has happened on that front I don't think so. The no. 2 was the sewage problems this has always been going to start on "Monday" well two weeks ago confiserve no doubt at the behest of H2O severely trimmed the trees around the practise green and pumping station. Then a portacabin arrived and was offloaded alongside the pumping station entrance. There the works stand, for how long?

CERA have no rights in this matter but the former President did ask to see evidence that the €4.1 ish millions had been paid and was in a separate account. Eventually after Phil had gone it was shown to a couple of committee members at the town hall. A programme of works was to be drawn up by officers at the town hall. This is where the Mayor and his deputy quote the no. 1 & 2 items from however I am not aware that anyone has seen a list or any definitive timings but any progress has to be good just that it should happen faster and all the money spent on Esuri.

Another concern is that the money does not appear to be accruing interest to the benefit of Esuri whilst it languishes in the town hall coffers.

Thank you for your replies John I would vote for you to represent us !! Yes, certainly the money should be in an interest earning account for CE. We do need to keep an eye on that fund and we have no other body that can do this other than CERA

I think you may have cart and horse the wrong way round. We need to get majority representation on the EUC so that the wishes of the owners are followed.

CERA do have a very important role in continuing to act as a monitor and pressure group on the EUC and the Town Hall but CERA is a voluntary group run for and on behalf of it's members - both owners and residents.

The EUC is a statutory body and does have tax raising powers and has to represent all owners - either directly or by quotient. It has a budget or around 1 million euros and so will need professional administrators as well as non-executive members.

Some voices say that the EUC should be disbanded but no-one has said what will be in its place. Some say that the functions currently performed by the EUC should be done by the council and covered by the IBI. Some have seen the pigs flying. Some say that the EUC should be reformed, properly constituted and continue to maintain the fabric of Costa Esuri.

It's all a very interesting debate but should be carried out in more formal arenas than the BE - although this site has been invaluable for some of the Brit residents it is not really representative of the CE demographic.

The President of CERA has been in discussion with the Deputy Mayor/President of the EUC CONCERNING THE FUTURE OF THE EUC suggestions have come from both sides but the Deputy Mayor blows hot and cold so no solution has been found. I am coming to the conclusion that a deeper involvement of the CERA body could be a poisoned chalis at this time when Fadesa are moving to Liquidation and the legal action to disband the EUC is coming to court. CERA's finances are now on a firmer footing but nothing like firm enough to defend the committee if with a more active role in the EUC went wrong!

If the EUC IS TO CONTINUE then it should be properly democratically representative of the owners on Esuri there must be a clean break and proper audit of past and present finances, there should be representation by an officer from the town hall. At the earliest possible moment the contracts for the Administrator and Works should be retendered in accordance with EU LAW and a plan agreed going forward to either wind up in the face of the legal action or if it is to continue proper value for money activities.

My desire to speak about the EUC, is that I go enough time in solitarily fighting to obtain clarity on the actions of the EUC. I have all the information, accounts, etc from the EUC origin, and I am in total disagreement with the EUC actions. I have asked for the protection of the Ayamonte Mayor, and before his lack of answer I have present my complaints to the Andalusian Ombudsman that they are being attended.
One of them has been the question of the representation, having indicated always that all those that we pay we had right to vote, independently of whom it was representing us. This it has been one of the aims that were fulfilled in the Extraordinary AGM of October.

One of the principal questions for this AGM is to know about if the Call was made in term ó not. All the owners we have the right to be warned and to receive the documentation for the AGM, fifteen days previous to the AGM. It is to say in this case, before March 11th, and I have received it later, to my request of information, and the accounts and budget (basic and obliged topics) have not been made loaded in the web up to 16th March 2015.

Art. 22nd. Call.
1- The Assembly shall be called by the Secretary on behalf of the Chairman, by telegram, fax or registered letter delivered at least fifteen days in advance to the dated fixed for the meeting, and addressed to the domicile of each of the members as it appears in the EUC’s Registry book, or its database. Will be notified by mail to all those who irrefutably choose this method.
Can someone inform me when it has been reported officially by EUC?

My second claim, it is that me it seemed inadequately, that the President was a representative of the Town hall, when this Town hall and his Mayor had the function of TUTELARY the EUC, that is to say, was illogical that to it was simultaneously Judge and Part. Since the Mayor can tutelary my complaints on the EUC, if his Mayor Lieutenant is the President?.

Why they have not incorporated to the topics of the CALL in this AGM:
- what does go to happen and/or going to change with the situation of MartinsaFadesa's liquidation?
- what can suppose for the EUC the claim realized by a group of owners against the EUC?




There are diverse things on that to comment on the accounts of the EUC.
1 º.-Every year they have presented the accounts in a different way. I am preparing a pfile trying to present the items of a comparative form.
2 º.-never present a comparison of the Budget foreseen for the year, with the results, for what there is no clear way of knowing his degree of fulfillment.
3 º.-Every year appear different items, and some of them so little clear for his text and amount as " UNEXPECTED EXPENSES ", in the budget of 2015, with an amount of 19.186,71 Euros.
4 º.-Continue being unknown the quantity of backward quotas is recovered year by year.
5 º.-Is unknown that relation has the payment to the " TAX MANAGEMENT SERVICES " as the work of recovering backward quotas and the amount that is paid to them for for it. In really is a work made by the Servicio de Gestion Tributaria.
6 º.-From 2010, are in the budget and logically we have paid in our quotas for IINFORMATICA, the quantity of 22.832,42 Euros. (THEY ARE EQUIVALENT TO 57 COMPUTERS)
7 º.-From 2010, are in the budget and logically we have paid in our quotas for FURNITURE, the quantity of 34.686,19 Euros. (THEY ARE EQUIVALENT TO 50 SOFAS)
8 º.-In 2013, foresaw 6.000 Euros for PUBLICITY, and for this year 4.000 Euros are presupuestados. Publicity why and with that end?
9 º.-If we notice reading the Minutes of every year, not different the text, and always they foresee the same thing, "lightning ó sparks falling" (Spanish expression), no variation, no surprise, except TO RAISE, THIS YEAR 2 % IN ALMOST ALL THE CONCEPTS.
10 º.-How is possible that in last three years, the wastebaskets, the playparks, the banks in sidewalks and parks, the lampposts, the electrical lighting, the sidewalks, the material of drain, the water fountain, and the trees and plants, have to repair, break or should be replaced in the same amount?
11º.- what for me is out of any economic and procedural logic, which I will explain in the next one.


One of the most surprising things of the economic accounts and budget of the EUC, is that against his own regulations that they say:
Article 39 º.-Budget. 1. In the last quarter of every exercise, the Governing Advice will formulate the provisional budgets for the economic following exercise, choosing for it the most suitable formulae of presentation in every moment. The budget will be able to indicate ordinary and different concepts of extraordinary character or of multiannual projection, determining the origin of the funds and the applications of same conducive to the balance of both, being applied by general character from the first day of every year.

That is to say, clarifying " determining the origin of the funds and the applications conducive to the balance of both ".
By it there is not understood a budget, in which INCOME AND EXPENSES are not equivalent.

Article 39 º.-Budget 2. The General Assembly in extraordinary meetings will be able to approve equally special and complementary budgets, with character of necessary and, consequently, they will be added to the annual budget both to be liquidated by the closing of the exercise to which they are applied.

That is to say, in an extraordinary Meeting, depending on since the Income and Expenses go, to summon it to approve one special and complementary budget, which covers the expenses that to a certain moment, could not preveer his payment, for lack of income of quotas.

For it, it is not possible to understand that EUC presents a budget, in which the income is superior to the expenses, TO COVER the quotas of those who are not going to pay and to continue without paying, and the due thing will not recover.
As it is said in Spain, " wide is Castile " = “ancha es Castilla”, that is to say, that while budgets not subject to the reality continue being approved, and the expenses are not controlled adequately, we will continue paying those who pay, not only it of one but it of not payers.
There is kept year after year, a budget on the basis of 950.000 Euros, creating a so called item " DOUBTFUL FEES DURING THE EXERCISE ", that without any established criterion, presupposes that quantity is not going to be received, that simply consists of the fact that is the difference between the INCOME and the EXPENSES.

It is devastating, that are included in the expenses of the year, a so called item " PAY DEBTS ", to pay these, when those that already have paid his quotas anually, they have contributed this quantity.
That is to say, we must continue paying what already we pay in our previous quotas.
To 31.12.2014, the quotas of the "normal" debtors are 1.389.000,21 Euros and the " quotas belong to the debtors " to doubtful collection " they are 1.710.755,72 Euros, that it means: the quotas os the debtors are FIVE YEARS OF EXPENSES.

Till when?
I have some files in pdf with the comparative one of expenses, income, debit from 2010. If someone wants to receive, to contact with [email protected]

NO its not been repaired yet,But the E U C have been quite thoughtful and erected a sign nearby giving you something to read whilst waiting for the break down truck.

This is quite clearly where the item 8* of 2013 €6000 + €4000 this year for publicity has been spent. It may have taken a while but we now have a very large potentially illuminated sign with the deepest foundations you could imagine welcoming us all to the wonders of the EUC SERVICED BY CONFISERVE.
