Further Information on Post Boxes
In response to queries about the post boxes, here's some further info that you may find useful:
We had post boxes. A number of years ago, the boxes were removed at request of the owners (and at a cost to the community). This was because they were stuffed with junk mail. On other urbanisations, junk mail has been set on fire. Also, it is more obvious when properties are vacant when the post boxes haven't been emptied regularly.
We have checked the cost of getting boxes reinstalled. The cost is €8,000 - €10,000. The boxes would need to be outside the urbanisation gates for the mail service to deliver. If residents wish, we can discuss again at this year's AGM, and vote on whether this something we want to progress.
Just to note that anyone with an entrance directly onto Calle Malvinas or Calle Azores can register their address and put up their own post box outside their own gate. Contact the committee e-mail address for further information if you are interested in doing this.
Finally, a number of other businesses in the area offer a private post box service (for example The Post Room at Villamartin). The cost is approx. €75 per year. Jay has organised a community postbox for €150 per year.
Installation of Security Camera, Street 1
Hi everyone.
At last year's AGM the committee took an action to review the need for security cameras, and install if necessary.
Over the lasy year, there have been a number of instances where commercial vehicles using the underground garages have damaged the date and community walls in Street 1. We have taken the decision to install a security camera for Street 1 (Gate 3). This camera will be managed by our Easygates contractor. If there are any incidences reported, Easygate will be able to chek/download the recording if necessary.

Jay has set up a post box at the Mini Market, La Fuente, for the use of all Bosque III residents.

Update on urbanisation maintenance activities
Hi everyone.
We hope everyone has had a great summer. Hard to believe the summer season is over and we are heading into autumn!
Over the summer, Jay and the Committee have continued the upkeep the urbanisation. Here are a few updates on what has been happening:
- The pool umbrellas need to be repaired. They are scheduled to be repaired this week.
- The missing tiles in the kids pool (top pool) have been replaced.
- We've noted some issues with cloudiness of water in the top pool. The filters were badly clogged with red sand. They have been cleaned out and crystal glass has been put into the filters to prevent them from becoming clogged up again.
- We had some issues with electricity supply in Road 1which was causing intermittent issues the street lights and gate. The trip switch has been replaced and the street lights have been checked. All are working properly now. Please note that the street lights are on a sensor and come on at dusk.
- The electrical upgrades (as passed at the AGM) are being scheduled - we'll update you when the works have been completed.
As always, if you have any issues, please contact Jay and the committee at: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
