Judge fears massive losses for buyers at Trampolin Hills in Campos del Rio, Murcia.

Buyers at the Trampolin Hills residential golf development in Campos del Rio could suffer “massive losses” as a result of planning irregularities at the resort, a judge has warned.

In a statement on the 12th May, reported in Murcia’s regional paper ‘La verdad’, judge José Miñarro García said properties at Trampolin Hills “appear to have been sold without appropriate administrative licences.” The developer admits that most of the resorts 2,575 properties have already been sold.

The judge condemned the municipal government, run by the socialist party, for turning a blind eye whilst hundreds of properties were sold without all the appropriate planning permissions.

In a little bit of good news for owners at Trampolin Hills, he also stressed that the town hall would have to compensate buyers for any losses resulting from a purchase of illegal property at the resort, not far from the city of Murcia.

“If buyers suffer massive losses, which is hypothetically possible, then the town hall, having allowed the construction and well publicised sale of properties without appropriate planning permission, is clearly responsible for damages,” Miñarro is reported to have ruled.

The ruling is a result of legal action taken by the opposition Popular Party (PP) against the Socialist-run local government, whom they accuse of changing the urban plan for Trampolin Hills without the support of the town council, as required by law. Some socialists are reported to have private business interests in the resort.

The judge also ruled that opposition PP have right to debate and vote on planning decisions relating to Trampolin Hills, and demand a halt to all works until the project has all pertinent permissions.

The judge said this would help to prevent a situation in which demolishing illegal properties at Trampolin Hills was ‘socially and economically’ unviable.

Trampolin Hills has been marketed heavily to British buyers, offering estate agents commissions of close to 20%.

A report from laverdad.es, regarding a meeting last night. Owners and officials of the Group Trampolín met yesterday at city hall of Rio de Campos. The results were 5 in favour of Trampolin Hills and 4 against. I beleive further meetings will be held, with in the next two weeks.

A rough transaltion of the report.

The House that would unlock Trampolín Hills to just five minutes

The PP refused to be declared extraordinary and there was no discussion About 200 owners and workers marched signature before the Consistory.  That could be the House to unblock the situation of Trampolín Hills and its 2,575 homes with golf course, stayed in a plenary Express, which barely exceeded five minutes.

The call, which had two points in the day, did not exceed the first-approval that had reason for the uniqueness of the House-to vote against them five councilors of the PP.  Being absent the socialist mayor Miguel Navarro and Carlos council man Bartholomew, the outcome of the vote was 5 to 4. End of issue.

 Meanwhile, half an hour before and since held the House, some 200 people-among owners, workers and neighbors of the Group Trampolín-expected before the small headquarters Consistorial demanding a solution to unlock the project, and that today, with the PP strongly settled in the opposition, only passes through the resignation of the mayor and councilman Bartholomew.

This decision would return the absolute majority needed to move forward with the PSO for approval of amendments to the draft, the only remaining formality in local government.  Once adopted, the autonomous community should endorse these amendments, and the machines start working. The leaders of the Group Trampolín argue that the end of the year could have already handed over the keys of the first homes.

"This is a circus'

The spokesman for the PP, Miguel Buendía, reported yesterday that the departure of the plenary was "insulting" and that only the presence of the Local Police lowered somewhat 'tension of the situation. " Buendía asserts that the convening of the House 'is nothing but a circus orchestrated to uncovering the PP, and convey the feeling that is the PSO which wants to take this forward, but the obstacle is us. " This wording again yesterday to try to obtain the opinion of the mayor or any of its councillors, without success.

Whether it was speaking Trampolín Group President, Antonio Gonzalez, who returned to defend the project - "technically flawless", and defined-loaded against the mayor. "It is unbelievable that has been pocketed 200,000 euros in commissions from sales of houses and take back now and say that he knows nothing. It could be that there are ideological reasons behind, but people want the project '.

The manager of the commercial supported his assertion trying to deliver on the failed House of 700 signatures were collected last weekend between barely 2,100 residents of River Fields' in just three hours'.

A thousand of the more than 2,500 buyers are EU citizens-mainly British and Scandinavian-those who remoteness not an obstacle to begin now to take legal action, as confirmed by the president of the commercial, aimed at recover sums paid to account quantities they will add interest on late payments and probably damages for breach of contract.

Many buyers are also opting for national judicial review, considering that Trampolín is in breach of contract by failing to deliver on schedule the houses.

A rough translation of the article.

The government team refuses to take responsibility in the case Trampolín Hills . Affirms that it has not granted licence for the construction of more than 2,500 houses in the 'resort'

The government team of PSO in Campos del Rio last Friday broke his silence regarding the reports in The Truth about their potential liability in the event that homebuyers in the complex Group Trampolín built in the locality.

The Socialists said in a statement that "can not derivársele responsibility for something that has not authorized", in response to the order of the judge Miñarro Garcia in which it was noted that in the case of a "massive damage" - the Consistory could CAMPER be compelled to support with its civil action from the owners of 2,575 homes in the resort.

The government team led by the mayor, Miguel Navarro, further states that it is not the council, "but the Autonomous Community, who holds the competition for the final approval that will allow the land can be classified as urbanizables. The release adds that the Consistory "it is only conducting the proposal to the Commonwealth for such approval takes place."

That proposal is one that should have taken place in the failed special plenary session convened last Friday, which was held not to overthrow the PP his statement of urgency.

The Socialists claim that the council "has not given any licenses for the construction of houses" by Trampolín Hills, but adds a line that followed "can not intervene in the market for buying and selling real estate and therefore can not prevent sales made. "

Lastly, said that potential buyers requiring identification classification of land agreement with Trampolín Hills were informed that the ground was "not urbanizable", despite the fact that many affected went to La Verdad municipal sources saying that they had given "assurances" of the legality of the project

Customers Trampolín River Hills in Campos put the first complaints of fraud

The guarantees provided by the promoter for the money it has been delivered to account have no legal validity The complainants claim to be victims "of a hoax '

The fear and concern extends to full speed among those who bought a house in Trampolín Hills Golf Resort Rio de Campos. The obvious difficulties it is encountering this development project, whose provisional approval is paralyzed for months by the inability of the municipal government team (PSO) to move ahead, have spread the suspicion that the resort houses and a field -2,800 Golf-might not ever be built, and in that position, are dozens and clients who are seeking to recover the money they handed over to the reserve account for a home. With the unpleasant surprise in many cases, according to The Truth has been found not only real estate company that is severely hampering them to reimburse the money, but also the vast majority of the guarantees provided by the promoter do not have any legal validity.

The law requires, since 1968, sponsoring undertaking any construction or amounts received on account of planned housing units, is required to substantiate these amounts through bank guarantee or insurance contract with an entity authorized to operate in Spain. In the case of Trampolín Hills Golf Resort, in some cases buyers have not received an endorsement and in other cases the guarantee up to the Swiss insurer finantial Corporation LTD, which is not authorized to act in Spain, or by signing Solera The Trampolín , Nor any validity would not be a bank or an insurer authorized by the Directorate General of Insurance.

"Some do not requested"

The lawyer Diego de Ramon, who represents the interests of Trampolín Hills, has acknowledged in conversation with The Truth that some buyers, mainly Spaniards, not-called collateral is the company which has to deliver so-bound, and that which were delivered correspond to the aforementioned Swiss finantial Corporation-invalid-and only a small portion (up to cover about six million) are backed by La Caixa, so that they themselves would be perfectly valid.

According acknowledged a few days ago the representative of Trampolín Hills Juan Francisco Canales, a significant percentage of the planned 2,800 homes are already sold, why the company has received some 50 million euros (about 8,300 million pesetas) in deliveries to account .

The main problem involved not having a valid guarantee is that if urbanization is not built, or whether buyers believed that the company has failed to meet the deadlines or has not respected the contract, they can not execute these guarantees and automatically retrieve your money, with 6% annual interest besides establishing the Law 57/1968.

It would then forced to act against the construction company and against their heritage and their owners to try to recover the investment.

If it is true, as the signature itself, which La Caixa endorses only about 6 million, the remaining 44 million would not be guaranteed according to law.

They feel cheated

Under these circumstances-with the project stalled for several months, with the company refusing to terminate contracts and return the money received on account and with few guarantees that mostly appear to be a dead letter, some buyers have already begun introducing the first by fraud allegations before the courts.

In these complaints-this newspaper is in possession of documents that are supportive evidence -, it is stated that those responsible for Trampolín Hills Golf Resort have breached a legal obligation to give guarantees valid, who refuse to return the money to account and who are considered "cheated".

In one of the complaints, filed by attorney Joaquin Guzman against Trampolín and its president, Antonio Martínez, explained that "the allegations, which operates across societies to evade personal responsibility, he used deception to get enough displacement heritage, and convinced that the complainants, who needed a home, to surrender amounts to the same account, making them believe they were legally guaranteed, despite record that the alleged guarantee that delivered lacked any value in getting this maneuver collect large quantities money. "

The complainants go beyond pointing out in his letter that "we have reason to suspect that the intention of the person accused is not doing the work and keep the amounts received. And added that "our alarm has been increased to check on various Internet forums that we are many buyers in good faith that we are experiencing what seems like a real estate scam."

End of judicial complaint stating that "denounced a plan carefully designed to achieve illegal goals, and offered some homes with an attractive value for money, and gave image solvency, taking advantage of the housing needs of those affected and good witness the same as in the first instance, had no reason to believe that they would become victims of a scam. "

Joaquin Guzman believes is time for 'buyers act united in defending their rights, both for the case that the works fail to do so or not completed within the agreed period, as to require termination of the contract or providing a guarantee adjusted to law ".

Resolutions of contract

This is the case of lawyer Jose Antonio Madrid, Valdes Albistur Attorneys office, confirming that takes months asking for guarantees with legal validity to the company, having received the silent response, and has initiated several cases of customers who have already applied for termination of the contract and the refund of money on account.

Madrid advanced that these customers have already pushed him to file a complaint through criminal, or a complaint, and that is expected to have read it and brought along the next  week

Deadlock at Trampolín Hills resort courts and regional government blame town hall for delay

A BID by Campos del Río town hall to allow building work to start at Trampolín Hills golf resort has been knocked backed by a judge and the regional department for public works.

As a result the scheme is in deadlock once again and buyers who have purchased properties still have no start date for the project. The company had applied for planning permission to build 2,575 houses and a golf course in Campos del Río and started to sell properties off-plan in 2005.

But according to a decision by Murcia’s court for administrative and litigious affairs, recent changes to the resort plans should have been approved in a full council meeting – something which did not occur.

Lawyers acting for the regional government informed the Socialist-run town hall on May 9 that they had not followed the correct procedure.

Local Partido Popular (PP) leader Miguel Buendía said: “They knew they could not win so they didn’t call a meeting.”

Sr Buendía has five PP councillors – but the ruling Socialist party (PSOE) has only four councillors out of six allowed to vote as the mayor and councillor for town planning had sold properties for Trampolín Hills before being elected.

Sr Buendía stated that the PP is not against the scheme and said it could be approved if the mayor and the councillor resigned their posts. He said: “They would be replaced by another two Socialist councillors who would be allowed to vote. “The scheme would be approved by their votes because they have the majority.”

LIABILITY

The decision issued by the court states that the town hall could be liable in a hypothetical case of prejudice to other people. According to the judge, the town hall has permitted building works and the sale of properties which have no licence.

A town hall source said the council was not liable because it cannot interfere in the property sales market and cannot prevent the company selling their products. CB News tried to contact Trampolín Hills’ chief executive Juan Francisco Canales Gil, as well as Campos del Río’s mayor and councillor for town planning but they were not available for comment.cbnews.es

Antonio Martínez: "If it were a corrupt, would not have paid 5 million euros to Treasury '

The chairman of Trampolín Hills defends the legality of their project and accuses the mayor of River Fields' not being honest with his party "to conceal their dealings with the company

Antonio Martínez, president of Trampolín Hills (2,800 homes and a golf course in Campos del Rio) is between a rock and a hard or "with the ass in the air ', as he describes the situation colloquially.

 The project is stalled because the council does not give final approval, since the local government (PSO) does not have a majority because of the abstention of the mayor and a councillor motivated by their former business relationship with the company and, Furthermore, doubts have been raised about the validity of the guarantees that would ensure the money advanced by hundreds of customers who have already bought a house.

The property conflict with judicial referrals, has generated also a political dispute between the PSO and the PP, calling for the resignation of the mayor.

After several weeks of cross accusations and complaints, Antonio Martínez has lost patience yesterday and decided to speak out to defend his honesty, the legality of his project, and the same, criticizing the mayor, Miguel Navarro, who feels responsible for "Halt the project and jeopardize the dream of 2,000 families and jobs for 400 people."

"These days I have said everything, that if I am a swindler, a corrupt ...  But how can accuse me of swindler if I have the opportunity to make the houses. Let me give three months ahead and I am 200 licences and in that time I will make 200 houses, "says indignant businessman.

 "I have not ido"  "I am here, I have not ido, I paid taxes.  If it were a corrupt, I would not have paid 5 million euros to VAT tax, as I have done ', insists on defending his honesty.

Accepts that Justice is investigating the project, but is more assured by the municipal action with respect thereto, by the project itself. "The DB filed a complaint in its day-shows-and I have already declared to the prosecutor, which is what I have everything because I have nothing to hide".

According to the prosecutor became interested in linking the mayor with the company. "The PSO is Cabra me because I said what the 200,000 euros (money that the mayor claimed by the sale of houses Trampolín Hills), but it's the truth," he says.

Antonio Martínez said that trade relations with Miguel Navarro Trampolín Hills, and that are now left him unable to vote in favour of the project, were closer to what has been reported (even now, being mayor, a relative very close to he has bought a house, "adds), and wondered if the PSO did not know these facts before proposing it as a candidate for mayor.

 Martinez accuses the mayor of "not being honest with his party" by failing to tell their business with Trampolín Hills and the consequences. These relations are not confined only to the sale of houses, which Navarro received 200,000 euros, but also intervened "as a broker in the purchase of 20 or 30 plots of land for Trampolín.

The businessman says that even "I had to pay double the fee for homes that sold for not denouncing it, did not pay their share of the commission to real estate through which made the operation".

The president of the promoter thinks that the mayor acted with some resentment. "I do not think I have forgiven you stop outside the purchase of the latest farm, where he wanted to be the runner, but I was not wanted because the candidate for mayor," says the entrepreneur.

Martinez denies the allegations of PSRM-PSO spokesman, Jose Ramon Jara, who is pressing the mayor to resign.  "I do not press anyone-indications, what I am saying is that they are the ones who govern the city council and they have to give a solution, because the PP is in the opposition and merely doing his job."  In his view, the mayor could vote, because "the municipal secretary has made four reports saying that you can do, but he prefers not to vote, since it could incur an illegality that could cost him the disqualification.

With a lot of bitterness and anger, the employer asks' why not give me permission if everything is okay.  This must fix it, "says, and suggests a possible solution:" To vote or resign and run list.

Court battles over Trampolín Hills Resort

Guarantees are not valid in Spain

A MOUNTAIN of legal battles will be faced by Grupo Trampolín (GT) due to its resort in Campos del Río. Some clients who bought a property on the resort are likely to take legal action against the company – which is itself considering a lawsuit against the town hall.

The first criminal lawsuits were presented this week in Mula’s Investigating Court by the lawyers’ office Valdés Albístur Abogados. According to Francisco Valdés, the company has been accused of fraud by the clients.

“The money cannot be recovered through the guarantees,” he explained. “Moreover the company has failed to comply with the terms of the sales contract. “GT has been playing with the clients’ savings and they have not kept their promises,” he alleged.

He advised all clients to make a decision as soon as possible, as the warrants issued by Swiss Financial Corporation cannot be executed in Spain. He said the guarantors were GT themselves.

CBNews contacted the Bank of Spain, who confirmed that the company Swiss Financial Corporation is not registered with them as a credit or bank institution. The Spanish General Department for Insurances (Dirección General de Seguros) also confirmed that SFC is not registered with them.

However GT chief executive Juan Francisco Canales said the guarantees had been approved by the Spanish Ministry for Justice. “Some clients asked to recover their money and they got it back.” he insisted. “In theory they should not have any problem.”

Sr Canales said they were not hiding and are fighting to have the building scheme approved. He admitted the work on the first phase of the resort – 500 properties – should have been started in September last year.

“We are considering taking legal action against all councillors working in the town hall,” he asserted. “We have lost 50 million euros approximately.

“A decision by Murcia’s court for administrative affairs states the councillors might take responsibility with their own wealth.”

Sr Canales said GT had started selling the properties, despite the scheme not having been approved by the regional authorities, because they had a building agreement with the town hall and the project had been initially approved.cbnews.es

Cash-back promise for Trampolín buyers
 
“CLIENTS will be able to recover their money after the sales contracts they signed have expired,” Grupo Trampolín’s (GT) chief executive Juan Francisco Canales stated during a TV interview on Murcia’s regional channel Canal 6.

According to GT’s lawyer Diego de Ramón, Trampolín Hills golf resort in Campos del Río is not a fraud and the guarantees issued by Swiss Financial are valid. He said: “Swiss Financial guarantees have been accepted by eight different town halls and regional administrations in Spain.

“They would not have accepted the guarantees if they were not valid.” However, lawyer Francisco Valdés and GT property buyer Domingo Marín were not able to come to an agreement during the TV debate.

Sr Marín reported he had tried to get his money back through Swiss Financial and he was not able to do so. He said: “I was told by GT construction work would start at Christmas and then I was told it would start in March and then it had been scheduled for July.

“The project has not been approved yet and the whole affair has started to smell bad. “That is why I tried to get my money back – unsuccessfully.”

His lawyer Francisco Valdés then asked GT’s Sr de Ramón to show him the statement from the special bank account where the money had been paid in by the clients – a total of 52 million euros.

He said: “If you show me the statement I will withdraw the criminal lawsuits against GT and its president Antonio Martínez.” However Sr de Ramón admitted most of the money had been invested in buying diggers, palm trees, land, in paying for works to flatten land at Trampolín Hills resort, in paying the tax office and in paying the companies that provided the guarantees.

Sr de Ramón added: “GT can respond to its clients with the company assets.” He also announced he would present civil court cases against local and regional civil servants on June 10.

He said: “They will have to respond with their personal assets and they will not be protected by their political parties.” Campos del Río mayor Miguel Navarro has also said he will not resign from his post.

He added:“Another solution to approve the housing scheme must be found.” According to GT’s lawyer the matter can only be solved by the courts.cbnews.es

On this aspect, Navarro made no comment.

Moreover, he said the CEO of SL Trampolín, Juan Francisco Canales, "the mayor cree" which in October is the deadline two years since we had economic interests in the company. Thus, in theory, the project could succeed. However, Canales insisted that the company has always fiado in a legal report prepared by the municipal secretary, which argues that "the situation of the mayor was not to be disqualified" and in which, in addition, we conclude that disqualification should be submitted and rejected in a vote in plenary municipal levels.

For his part, chairman of Trampolín SL, Antonio Martínez, considered yesterday that the matter not be resolved until October or November "and said, again and as has always done, that" the only thing we want is to give the houses to people '.

Trampoline accuses the mayor of prevarication and abuse of power by delaying the complex

The plenary addresses today approved amendments to the urbanization of the group A report says there are five remaining deficiencies in the draft submitted

The Grupo Trampolín yesterday presented a complaint before the court by prevarication, coercion, abuse of power and concealment of documents against the current mayor, the socialist Miguel Navarro, the mayor of Urban Development, Esteban Jimenez, Antonio Plaza, municipal technical architect, and the secretary and the legal adviser to the council Campero.

The complaint comes barely 24 hours before the plenary address today at 19 hours the approval of the amendments to the autonomous community has imposed on the Grupo Trampolín project to build 2,500 homes in the town.

In the statement of claim, the president of Grupo Trampolín, Antonio Martínez, said that this approval will be "with last-minute objections. The origin of these "misgivings" is a report that signs the municipal technical architect of the past days dated November 10, and that sets up five new remedy shortcomings in the draft.

The report contradicted another of February 21 this year, in which Antonio Plaza, said that after the submission of a Territorial Impact Study and other documents are remedied 'recent shortcomings identified by the Directorate General of Urbanism "on urbanization , Located on the site of El Barril.

No communication

 Martinez says that his company has had no communication from the new report until last Thursday, after he published The Truth that the House was to take place today. This lack of communication has left no time to Grupo Trampolínto fill the new gaps, which in turn leaves almost no effect on the plenary session today, and that approval will hesitate to assume that the Directorate General of Urbanism directly reject the project and so again refer to the council.

This situation will cause a further delay for the project, which already collects more than a year of delay after the PP challenge to the mayor and a town councilor, which paralyzed the approval of the amendments in plenary.

Martinez understands that these delays are aware, adding that in a meeting with the mayor and the mayor of Urbanism was told that the final plenary session could take place in December "as long as I withdraw the allegations and complaints filed in court."

Truth was unable yesterday to contrast with the mayor, Miguel Navarro, these allegations, despite several attempts to contact him. Martinez added that since last Friday, at the request of the alderman of Urban Development, has been forbidden contact municipal staff concerning this matter with members of the Grupo Trampolín.  "It is an extortion," Martinez ends.
