Estepona Golf resident Mr.Stephen Kimsey had a petition read out and debated at the European Parliament in Brussels Wednesday the 2nd April.

The petition submitted over a year ago was asking for help regarding the huge unwarranted infrastructure charges facing homeowners at Estepona Golf.
 
Developers building hundreds of new houses want exsisting homeowners to pay vast sums towards their new roads, street lights, drains, etc.

Mr Kimsey says one of his elderly neighbours living on a widow’s pension has a charge of 30,000€ placed on the title deeds of her home by the developers.
The residents have the backing of Euro MPs Michael Cashman (UK) and David Hammerstein (Spain) along with local councillor Rafael Montesinos.
 
The community at Estepona Golf hope that the European Parliment will put pressure on Spain to change its housing laws and protect exsisting homeowners and buyers all over Spain from greedy and corrupt lawyers, developers and town hall officals.
