El Toyo, the “model” urbanisation outside of Almeria that has been compared as a prototype of our projected Llano Central, is facing a 100% strike of all public workers.

It seems that since the hotels have closed, half the houses have not been built, the commercial centre not even started and the place falling apart, budgets have been slashed and there are only 18 public workers (used to be more than 30) to look after the whole place. 614,800 m2 of grounds, it seems. So since the town hall keeps blaming the workers for letting the place get untidy, the workers have gone on strike to demand more help.

As I always say - fix wht you’ve got before you build more!
