Going back to the olive groves -

Quite a large number olive trees where we are, were saved during the building process fortunately, and we have since planted some more, how about a Plant An Olive Tree campaign, and where possible property owners make sure they have an olive tree in or near their gardens if they have one.

Now I know they get the olive fly etc , they take a time to grow along with all the other negative issues, but it may take some of the harshness off the new build areas & eventually we would have more greenery around Kalkan. Could throw in a citrus tree or two as well.

Who knows, we could even learn how to harvest & use them.  ;)

Been some pretty rash purchases without adequate searches - would have thought a study of the town plan at the Belidiye would have been a must, just as if purchasing in the UK - eyes wide open and that.

talking of "eyes wide open", Alfaman, a cautionary tale from today''s "Telegraph", of a couple in Spain : http://www.telegraph.co.uk/global/main.jhtml?xml=/global/2008/02/02/spain-home.xml

and if we think nothing like this could happen in Turkey, another one from the "Turkish Daily News" :

Writing to you from southern Spain.  The British couple whose house was demolished were, we feel, used (unfairly) as an example of what will happen if buyers and contractors don''t abide by the law here. 

There are many, many apartment buildings along the Costas which have been condemned as illegally built and slated for demolition.  But some of them have been legalized and the other condemned ones have not yet been torn down.  We are all watching to see what happens next. 

The Spanish government is very serious about illegal building and wants to make a point.  Buyer beware!  Check if the land you are buying or building on really has building permission.  Don''t accept promises of future deeds or promises to ''sort out the problem''. True for both Spain and Turkey, probably also Bulgaria, Croatia and other countries where people are now buying homes.

I have heard from Turkish friends that most of the land in Akbel (above the road) has been built on illegally but I am not sure if this is true.  I do know of a Turkish family some of whose lands were taken back by the government.
