Owners at the Villas Caravaning campsite in Cartagena are demanding a change in management due to worsening conditions more than a year after the campsite closed for tourist operations. According to Juan García, president of the residents' association, insecurity, squatting and lack of services have increased; there are no working communal toilets and security services are up in the air. During the summer, residents went without a pool, security and communal toilets. About 961 of roughly 1,300 owners have requested individual water meters. A preliminary hearing was held Thursday in Cartagena courts; earlier precautionary measures were denied, and new ones were filed last week. The trial is not expected until next year.
