Jimmy’s disco in calle Antonio Millón, Nerja, has been ordered to close for the second time this year for exceeding permitted noise levels, the problem apparently connected with the cooling system within the facility.
Owners hopeful that ‘Jimmy’s’ can reopen shortly
In 2008, Vélez-Málaga Council was ordered to pay over five million euros compensation to 18 local residents in the El Copo area of Torre del Mar after ignoring complaints of excessive noise from bars and clubs for more than a decade. This has become known as the ‘Ipanema case’, and it has made other municipalities wary of ignoring complaints relating to noise.
