Torrox Council has voted unanimously to terminate the current contract to build the indoor swimming pool La Granja after an amicable agreement was reached with the consructors Climocubierta.
The project began in March 2006 with a completion period of five months, but the work has been at a standstill for the past eighteen months due to financial wranglings.
The ‘amicable’ agreement means the Council will not have to pay more than the amount originally stipulated in the contract, €292,101. The original works, started during the previous (PSOE) administration, had a budget of €413,959.83, but modifications to the plans added an extra €506,800.
The aim now is to get the swimming pool completed by the summer.
