The Petition to Save Cala Mosca, signed by over 7,000 people, will be formally presented in the Orihuela Town Hall on Friday, 26 March.
By putting their signatures to this Petition, over 7,000 people have expressed their opposition to the building of 1,700 new flats and houses on this last piece of green land on Orihuela Costa. This would seem to demonstrate a massive rejection of this project. Instead of another concrete urbanisation, Orihuela Costa needs a major natural park where people can walk and relax and children can play safely. The present economic crisis and the collapse of sales of property, show how vital it is to change the development model of Orihuela Costa.
The presentation of the Petition will provide an occasion to underline opposition to this project and to show determination to Save Cala Mosca. As such CLARO invites all those who share these objectives to join them in an authorised, peaceful protest on FRIDAY, 26 MARCH. Free transport will be available to Orihuela and back from Playa Flamenca. Buses will leave the (temporarily closed) Asturias Restaurant on the N332 next to the local Carrefour at 8.30 a.m. We should be back by 12.30 p.m.
If you wish to join them and would like to reserve seats on the buses, please confirm by e-mail (info@claro-orihuela.eu) or telephone the C.L.A.R.O. Office on 966 284 912 or 661 333 593, open Monday to Friday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Presentation of the Petition and demonstrating to the local government the strength of opposition to this project will not be the only means deployed to Save Cala Mosca.
The Petition will also be sent to the European Parliament, to the regional government in Valencia and to the Spanish Ministry of the Environment in Madrid. All possible legal means of stopping this project will also be pursued.
