According to the mayoress, “the ground is saturated with water, which is causing landslides, fallen trees and risks to infrastructure”. This came after the highest alert level for rain was declared in Andalusia and classes were suspended across the region for Wednesday 4th of February, except in Almería”.

“We have deployed preventive measures throughout Mijas, reinforcing the emergency services, Fire Brigade and Civil Protection, Operational Services and Parks and Gardens”, said Mata, who insisted that “the 112 telephone number should be used responsibly in any emergency situation”. However, it should be noted that on Monday 2nd, the mayoress called a meeting of the Mijas Town Hall Emergency Advisory Committee in view of the weather forecast for Wednesday. The emergency plan was activated

on Monday at pre-emergency operational level 0, and it was decided to close the parks, the Coastal Path, and access to the river.

Among the measures adopted for Wednesday 4th, when orange alert was in place in Mijas due to rain and wind, were: the suspension of school activities; the suspension of activities in senior citizens’ centres; the suspension of UP activities; the recommendation to work from home whenever possible; the closure of parks and public spaces with trees due to the risk of falling; the suspension of outdoor sports

activities; and the preventive evacuation of flood-prone areas.

All of these measures remained in force on Thursday 5th, when Mijas was on yellow alert for rain, wind and coastal phenomena, while on Friday 6th it was expected that only municipal parks and access to the Gomenaro River would remain closed.

Committee meeting The decision to maintain these measures was taken on Thursday 5th in the morning during a new meeting of the Mijas Town Hall Emergency Advisory Committee, where it was decided to keep the municipal plan in place in view of the forecast for a new storm on Saturday 7th, which has been named Marta, and for which yellow alerts have already been activated in Mijas due to wind and coastal phenomena. Mata chaired the meeting, during which the situation in the municipality and the incidents arising from storm Leonardo

were also assessed.

The mayoress announced that all public parks would remain closed, as the excessive moisture in the ground could cause trees and branches to fall and break. She also said that access to the river would remain closed, although the sports facilities would open on Friday 6th, as would the UP, unless a sudden deterioration in conditions forced them to close.

Truce in the weather “Tomorrow, Friday, a respite from the bad weather is expected between one storm and the next, but we must not let our guard down”, explained the mayoress. The Fire Brigade, Local Police, Civil Protection, Parks and Gardens, Operational Services, Cleaning and Rural Areas will continue to coordinate their efforts to respond as quickly as possible to new incidents and minimise the risks arising from the storm.

alerts for wind came into effect across the Costa del Sol with the arrival of storm Leonardo. The rainfall began in the early evening and the first incidents were reported throughout the night. Early in the morning, the mayoress, Ana Mata (PP), visited the vicinity of the Gomenaro River and took stock of the incidents: “It has been a difficult night in various areas of the municipality, with a very strong maritime storm that has damaged the coastal path at El Capricho, which has been damaged and will have to be repaired as soon as the storm passes, as well as a watchtower that has been swept away”.

Mata, accompanied by the councillors for Civil Protection and the Fire Brigade, Francisco Jerez (Vox); Operational Services and Parks and Gardens, Daniel Gómez Teruel (PP), and Livestock, Rural Areas and Cleanliness, Eloy Belmonte (Vox), pointed out that “trees have also fallen in several areas of the municipality, causing road blockages, but we have acted quickly”.

Schools

Teruel pointed out that “a tree fell on Calle Sergio García in Riviera at around three in the morning and we acted to remove it, and also, at the Calahonda roundabout, a pine tree fell, blocking traffic”. Along with Parks and Gardens, the Mijas Fire Brigade also attended to resolve the incidents; in the case of Calahonda, large tree trunks had to be cut up to clear the road.

Staff from the

Town Hall, Fire Brigade, Local Police and Civil Protection are working on the ground Operational Services also inspected roads and monitored riverbeds and landslide-prone areas. The Town Hall closed pedestrian access to the beaches.

Mata stressed that the team “worked through the night” from Tuesday to Wednesday and highlighted that the danger was compounded by “rain on already wet ground” combined with strong winds.

INSPECTS SCHOOLS ED. DEPT. / C.M The councillor for Education, Juan José Torres Trella (PP), inspected the schools on Wednesday morning to ensure that there

were no incidents. Only minor leaks were detected at María Zambrano and Las Cañadas schools.

During Wednesday evening and the early hours of Thursday 5th, with a yellow alert for rain, wind and coastal phenomena, incidents continued, with around thirty incidents recorded during that night and Thursday morning. The Fire Brigade, Local Police, Civil Protection, Parks and Gardens, Operational Services, Street Cleaning and Rural Areas worked on the ground to minimise the consequences of this storm.

More interventions The government team explained that multiple interventions were carried out due to fallen trees and branches (especially in Las Lagunas, Calahonda and Riviera). They also cleared architectural debris such as cornices and advertising hoardings, particularly at Dunnes Stores in Las Lagunas and Kiabi (Parque Miramar); and attended to broken windows and awnings in residential buildings (La Cala and Las Lagunas), a satellite dish (Las Lagunas), and a pergola (Riviera del Sol).

Half a thousand students will learn how to launch a business

at the III Entrepreneurship Conference Mijas will host this event on Friday, 13th of February, from 9:00 to 14:00 hours, at the Manuel España Theatre Jacobo Perea / Beatriz Martín

On Tuesday 3rd, the III Málaga Young Entrepreneurs Conference was presented. The event is aimed particularly at young people studying vocational training and will take place on the 13th of February, from 9:00 to 14:00 hours, at the Manuel España Theatre.

The aim is to facilitate access to this training on entrepreneurship for young people from across the Costa del Sol. It is organised by the Andalusian Youth Institute and sponsored by the Provincial Council. “We want young people to be motivated to become entrepreneurs and to see entrepreneurship and self-employment as another enriching professional alternative with a future”, said the regional minister for Employment, Mari Carmen Márquez.

In this regard, the councillor for Youth, Melisa Ceballos (PP),

At the centre the regional minister for Employment, alongside the councillor for Youth and the CEO of the organising company / B.M.

stated that “for young people who are unsure about their future, these conferences are a way of encouraging them and showing them that there are different job opportunities that they can pursue throughout their lives”.

Students from the vocational training programmes at IES Las Lagunas, Sierra de Mijas, Vega de Mijas and Ana Carmona ‘Veleta’ will attend, although students from other secondary schools in

Mijas are also invited.

The conference is organised by MS GROWTH; its CEO, Álvaro García, added that “our goal is to reach young people from Mijas and other towns with fewer than 20,000 inhabitants who are studying here. Other young people from the area who are interested in the conferences are also welcome to attend”. Registration is available via the website jornadajovenesemprendedores.com.

The Arts Society reveals the secrets of Ronda and the mystery of art theft The Danish Club and the Salón Varietés host the collective’s upcoming lectures F.M.R. The Arts Society Costa del Sol, linked to an international network based in London with more than 300 associations worldwide, is preparing its upcoming cultural events.

With a large proportion of its membership residing in Mijas, the society organises monthly meetings to explore history and the arts in greater depth, returning this month with two high-level proposals.

The event in our municipality will take place on Tuesday 10th at 10:30 hours at the headquarters of the Danish Club, located on the Mijas road. Under the title ‘Hunting the Borderlands in Ronda’, speaker Rafael Anderson will explore the complex Arab heritage of the city of Tajo. Anderson will unravel the symbolism of this ‘citadel in the sky’ and its strategic role as a shifting border between the Nasrid and Christian kingdoms over the centuries.

The day before, on Monday 9th at 16:30 hours, the Teatro Salón Varietés in Fuengirola will host the talk ‘How to steal a million’. Shauna Isaac will analyse the most famous art thefts in history, the motivations of the thieves and the failures that ultimately led to the recovery of masterpieces.

Both lectures will last one hour and admission is 10 euros per lecture, payable on the door. These talks represent an excellent opportunity for local residents to connect with Andalusian history and the mysteries of universal creativity.
