Council to urge Junta de Andalucia to implement sanitation projects

The Council has approved a motion asking the Junta de Andalucia to carry out works they announced would be carried out from proceeds of the water canon introduced under the 2010 Water Law. To date, the canon has raised €63 million, of which €400,000 has been contributed by nerjeños, yet not one single project has thus far been implemented.

Slight delay to sewage plant project

The consortium contracted to build the sewage plant in Nerja, Corsan-Corvia-Isolux, has asked for a further two months in which to prepare their final draft project. The company was originally due to submit the project on April 12th 2013 but this has now been extended to May 12th 2013.

Never a dull moment with the sewage plant saga

There are apparently conflicting, and obviously disturbing, reports as to whether or not the State Budget for Málaga for 2013 includes provision for the proposed sewage plant in Nerja.

Keeping a straight face…

Over the years, many of them, the anticipated cost of building a sewage plant in Nerja has risen, and risen. The latest estimate/budget/call it what you will is €40.6 million, with some ‘experts’ recently stating that, due in the main to the elevated terrain, a more realistic figure would be €60 million, or even more.

Financial bids opened

The Mayor of Nerja, José Alberto Armijo, has announced that the Central Government remains committed to the construction of the sewage plant in Nerja and that the financial bids have been opened at the Ministry of Environment.
