I live in block 31 and I am ABSOLUTELY SICK & TIRED of people in the pool after 10pm making noise, shouting etc when we have to be up for work at 6am.   This is a danger as well as a nuisance.....Why can't we have the pool lights turned off instead of inviting people drunk....to climb over the totally useless fences......how long is it going to be before we find a body floating in the pool in the morning?   The signs are useless, the fence is too low and security non-existant.  Something needs doing about this now - before it's too late!

Dear Hazel

I read your posting on break-ins. I have been renting on CDS since 1st May and visiting the site to see my in-laws for over 2 yrs, in fact that's why I'm now living here, it grew on me......and I could see improvements being made, however, security remains very poor in my opinion, as anyone can drive onto and off the development unchallenged...A barrier would make a huge difference, if only as a deterent and would also stop people coming onto the site to use the facilities....this happens every weekend.

Not much happens here without me seeing it ! as I spend most of my time at home & I also look out for anything suspicious....So, be assured that there is a little added security and that your neighbours are looking out for you...unfortunately the last break-in was not stopped...perhaps the next attempt on someones property will be less succesful.

Regards,  JohnF

I am renting at the moment but am looking to buy asap.  My wife and I love it here and we also think that there have been many improvements over the last few months, including the security fencing.  We have also noticed that many people come into the development to use the facilities - this should be stopped immediately and security should be told to enforce this strictly !

At the moment there is no security whatsoever, anyone can drive onto this development unchallenged and park wherever they like, use the pools and then leave when they have finished.....it's famous for it...I have heard talk of this in Gibraltar....Some people find it very difficult to pay for 'exclusive' facilities when they are not exclusive at all....This may be a problem for anyone taking court action against non-payers of community charges....as the communities end of the bargain is not being kept, any existing contract is therefore being broken by neglect.
