Yes it’s all over Facebook it’s the same house owners who don’t like the bars because of noise etc my view is if you don’t want a house near a bar don’t buy one those buildings have always been designated commercial so I don’t see issue . The police have stopped it for now
I wonder if people are aware of the debacle at sierra mar square where dick turpins, zest and marian's bar etc operate.Some people ( not the majority) from the urb. had a meeting and put posters up saying workmen would be coming to remove their chairs , tables and awnings . according to the bar owners this situation has a court case pending. However that did not seem to stop the administration of sierra mar urb organising 3 skips of huge bolders arriving at 2.am with workmen about to place them around the square. This would have been carried out had it not been for 1 of the proprietors being present and phoning the police who stopped the workmen for now.
I think what's sad is the way that the British, and is certainly predominantly the British, abuse these open areas. Perhaps some of the residents who bought near the commercial units thought that there would be a mix if units, and that the few that were bars would have people sitting outside them having a glass of white wine and chatting quietly in the sun. That's a far cry from what they do get. I've even had Spanish friends tell me they've dropped into that square - on a Sunday especially - just to "look at" the way the people there are behaving. It's literally a source of amusement for them, like going to the zoo I suppose.The last time I was there was also a Sunday, the place was deafening, people screaming and downing shots outside the beautifully named "Chasers" on an "all day Sunday session". Its was charming.
Sorry but I think you must be thinking of a different square!
