As we all know, there is an emergency situation affecting our community and the entire Costa del Sol. The Junta de Andalucía has declared a situation of "serious and exceptional shortage" due to the drought in our region.
The Mijas Town Hall, to which our community belongs, issued a bando on 13th November 2023, which is still in force, requesting the maximum cooperation of its citizens and obliging the adoption of measures to restrict the use of drinking water. These measures include the prohibition of watering gardens, golf courses, washing streets, filling private swimming pools, washing cars, among others.
As the situation has not improved, Acosol, which is the public company managing the integral water cycle for the municipalities of the Western Costa del Sol region, and Mijas Town Council have taken new measures to manage water resources in the face of the drought, notably by reducing water consumption and investing in infrastructure to ensure supply.
