The AEN, the Association of Employers in Nerja, has written to the Council to request an adjustment to the water rates as the increase is seriously damaging to hotels in the town.
The AEN claims that the current rate is €1.31 per cubic metre whereas it was previously €0.52, an increase of over 150%.
Aguas de Narixa, who manage the water supply, apparently deny that the tariff has been increased.
