In addition, the locals had to arrange a time to which they had to put the washers because they could not operate simultaneously.

Gregrio Stephen has said that the neighbors are willing to bring this issue to court.
They have also ensured that for three months tried, unsuccessfully, that they received the Councillor responsible, Melchor Morales, to which "we have to humble ourselves to try to listen to us."
The spokesman also said that neighborhood tried to get the mayor, Francisco Jodar be moved to the council to listen to their problems but that "we sent to the village headman, and he has not been here in three years."
