Spills in the El Partidor urbanization of Playa Blanca

Ciudadanos has once again requested this Wednesday "a definitive solution to the discharge of sewage in the El Partidor urbanization of Playa Blanca." The party claims that although the government group acted in the area after their multiple complaints about the "incessant leaks," the problem "has worsened."

"The government group carried out an action, replacing one of the bilge pumps and improving part of the sewage system," says the municipal spokesperson for Cs, Bruno Medina, who however points out that "this action has been insufficient and a correct maintenance of the pumping station has not been carried out."

This, according to Medina, has caused the situation to be worse now, as "not only has it flooded, but other points of the sewage system very close to the houses have overflowed." "The residents cannot open the windows of their houses, as the strong odors do not allow them to breathe, to which must be added the plagues of flies, mosquitoes, and other insects that proliferate in the sewage," he denounces.

For all this and because "it is a public health problem," Ciudadanos has asked the municipal government to "definitively solve this situation," because "a tourist center like Playa Blanca cannot afford sewage problems."
