This note is a way of passing on information, that the Residents and Businesses of Vale Da Telha, Vales, Arrifana, Espartel and Monte Clerigo hopefully will find useful.
Amovate, have for some considerable time, had the opportunity to speak on a regular basis to the Aljezur Camára and through our meetings have tried to influence certain decisions, especially on Waste Management and Wild Camping as well as badgering for road repairs amongst many other items.
Abandoned cars spoil the street scene and several already have been removed. There is a procedure for this which includes several other authorities and it can be a lengthy process before they can be legally towed away.
Amovate pushed for a waste site that dealt with all forms of waste and the Camára have responded by extending their plans to include this although it might be a while before it deals with builders debris as certain licences are required. Early in March Algar, the contractors, will be planting trees on International Tree Day to some of the boundary to the site for visual protection, and work will start to form this much needed facility.
The Wild Camper situation is a more complex situation and recently the Minister for Tourism has visited Aljezur to witness the problems caused by many of these tourists. To have any real control on the situation National Laws have to be changed that will allow the Authorities to fine people who break the law. They will also need to alter the tax situation of these vehicles, this will take a while but hopefully should be in place for next year.
Concerning the Proposals and new Plan for VDT these have now been completed and are with certain bodies as the consultation procedure commences.
The Camára use Amovate as the source to inform its membership and others of any improvements that might be taking place. Through our website www.amovate.com we pass this information on. However with the finalisation of the new plan for VDT some of the plan will have some affect on the residents and businesses. Having seen the most up to date version it is easy to see that this area will have the ability to have up to another 5,000 people and in the summer the numbers could be 2 fold.
The Camára have informed Amovate that they will meet with them to talk through the proposals in the very near future so watch this space.
Amovate asks residents that they support the organisation and join as members as the more members we have the louder we can talk through the problems that might affect you when it comes to Public Participation of the plan.
Secondly, we also urge residents of whatever nationality, to register with the Aljezur Junta da Freguesia, so you will then have the ability to vote in the elections, thus having a real say on what happens in Aljezur.
If a 1000 people were registered to vote that live here, then there would be a real case for this area to have its own Junta de Freguesia which would bring a Pharmacy amongst other things.
Amovate are a Registered Charity and will always stay that way and if a Junta evolves here then we would let the politicians get on with that business. We would step back to being just a Charity raising funds for good causes, so please get registered to vote.
This is a Google translation of the Announcement on the Camára Website.
