Tangible progress for Planes del Rei

During the Municipal Council meeting on July 2, 2021, several important topics concerning the residents of Planes del Rei were discussed.

Start of maintenance work in the urbanisation

Starting Monday, municipal workers will begin cleaning Pratdip and Planes del Rei. They will also assess the condition of green spaces and the automatic irrigation system. If any faults are found, they will be repaired.

This gesture reflects a willingness for harmony and dialogue from the Municipal Council (Junts per Catalunya), who are reaching out to the residents of our urbanisation. While some differences remain, we are continuing our efforts to bridge the gap and find sustainable solutions for Planes del Rei.

Update on the renovation project

Technical services have been commissioned to update the renovation project for the urbanisation. This includes revising the budget and planning the works, which may be carried out in phases. We will request a meeting as soon as the technical review begins.

Removal of a dangerous tree

In response to a request from Avança Pratdip, supported by several residents, the Town Hall has removed a hazardous pine tree located on private property on Calle Lirio.

School transport: a potential solution?

Councillor Jordi Pagán expressed his commitment to finding a solution to the school transport issue for students from Planes del Rei and Pratdip who wish to study in L’Hospitalet rather than Montroig. A meeting will be organised shortly with the families concerned.

Street lighting and electricity

Discussions with the Town Hall are ongoing regarding public lighting in the streets of Planas. This dialogue includes SOS Planes, Unidos 2020, and the former EUCC currently in liquidation.

Increase in household waste collection fees

The increase in waste collection charges was approved along with the 2019 budget. It was imposed on all Baix Camp municipalities by the company Secomsa to offset the lack of recycling by residents.

Upcoming meeting with Planas groups

We have requested that the Municipal Council organise another meeting with all representative groups from Planes del Rei. It is expected to take place next week. A summary will be shared with you.
