The municipal councillor of Planas del Rey, Òscar Serrano, informs residents about the progress of two important projects for the urbanisation.
A 200,000-litre water tank to fight fires
Construction work on a new 200,000-litre water tank is progressing. This tank will be supplied with water by the municipality of Pratdip and made available to firefighters in case of fire, thus strengthening the safety of the area.
This project is the result of an initiative led by Òscar Serrano himself, during his time as president of the Consorci de Llaberia. The grant was obtained from the Generalitat of Catalonia, which is funding 95% of the €26,500 needed. It is worth noting that the municipality of Pratdip neither initiated the project nor applied for the subsidy, and even opposed the idea that this infrastructure would benefit Planas del Rei.
The commercial centre under renovation
At the same time, renovation work on the old commercial centre has begun. The works are expected to be completed within approximately 7 months. The building will eventually house a tourist office, a local products shop, a meeting room, and a municipal branch office.
Improvements without municipal recognition
Despite this progress, the Pratdip town hall continues to refuse to provide basic public services to Planas del Rei. Maintenance of the sewage treatment plant, pumps and other essential infrastructure remains neglected by the authorities, who persist in refusing to fully integrate the urbanisation into the rest of the municipality.
