This is Mrs KKOB....Can't remember my own sign in details and am just too worked up to find them.
FriendlyGhost.....PM me Please, would like to know who you are and where you are in the village.
Our House was built by Hanel.......If we take one wall out, we'd probably complete the job for them anyway...Joking aside.....I'd like to know why the effin Turkish government took the tax owed by the builders on all these illegal builds, and then allowed them all to have water and electric supplied to them, just to do this in the future?? How the hell can they even begin to justify this when there's plans to build a big holiday complex right under the Ghost Village. Why go to the huge expense of recently updating all the old electric pylons and cable into the village if they are going to flatten all the houses that are connected to the electric.
And I'd also like to know when they are going to demolish the mosque, because if RULES are RULES then the Mosque is illegal too. They had just started building that in August 2004.
How come there's a supposedly legal building going on opposite the Kaya Vardi Villas, how can there be parcels of land with 3% build permission advertised in land of lights and various websites.
Why has one landowner been told by Mugla authorities that he can build on his plot as long as he incorporates the tiny stone ruin into the new build?
Someone has mentioned that this is just a scare tactic and the next thing we will hear is that we have all been fined AGAIN. The monies presumably going to fund their election campaign, another Kaya resident has said that it's to scare them into voting for the right party at the coming elections....well pardon me but, even if I was allowed to vote, I sure as hell wouldn't vote for a party in the March elections that bulldozed my home 2 months earlier in January.....Ben aptal miyum (spelling).
If you know the village pretty well and try and picture the Valley you will see that if every house and building that has NOT been built on the footprint of one of the 250+ year old places is illegal....then this will practically flatten the whole Valley. Every place that tourists stay in the season is, it would appear by what we have been told, illegal, inc The Istanbul, Muzzy's, Kaya Vardi Villas, possibly the Stables and many many more.
With 160+ homes involved a lot of them are going to have rental tenants in them, low income Turkish family's with children at the school who are going to have to find somewhere to go, How can they afford to find more income, as I don't suppose they will get any rent money bank if they paid in advance, even a few months.
What about all the people who have homes here, who are back in the UK or where ever they live for Christmas and New Year and are not due back till after 5th....
Please excuse the rambling, bad grammar and spelling..I'm not really thinking straight at the moment.
