The season edging closer and as usual it is time for complaints regarding the maintenance and management of Puerto Pollensa's front line and beach to surface. This year, entering the fray early, it's the UMP (Unió Mollera Pollença) criticising the control of sand that gets flung up from the beach and the fact that the annual tender for beach maintenance and management hasn't yet been put out.
(Comment - A suggestion that the maintenance and management contract be for a period of four years, rather being renewed each year is eminently sensible, but there are, as ever, procedures, and they are determined by the Costas authority. It is ridiculous, though, that the annual process to award the contract has to be gone through. One drawback, apart from the inevitable delays which have dogged Pollensa - and to be fair, other resorts don't seem to have the same problem - is that concessionaires are disinclined to invest if they only have a contract for one year. When speaking with mayor Cifre recently, he seemed to intimate a hope that the neighbourhood association in the port might have the contract again this year, the loss of which last year caused an almighty fuss, but he did stress the fact that the Costas' procedures had to be gone through. All very odd.)
