The people of Calpe are being given a voice .They are being asked for their ideas on how to
                                   give the Old Town in Calpe , on the Spanish Costa Blanca , a facelift .A 50,000 euro contest
                                   has been set up for professional architects and developers but they have to take into
                                   consideration in their plans , the wishes of the people .

                                   Calpe is an important holiday destination , an important tourist centre but nevertheless it is the
                                   full time residents who are important and this is about the future of Calpe and consolidating its
                                   future as a holiday destination.This focus on the Old Town has upset many expats who live on
                                   the outlying urbanisations and who feel that they have been neglected in the money game.

                                   It appears that there was 400,000 euros from the government to resurface roads and that just
                                   hasn´t happened .

                                   Tourism currently provides Calpe with 90% of its income and the historic town centre is seen as
                                   being vital in attracting tourists to the town .They want the Old Town to be a lovely place to visit
                                   .It is not a case of rebuilding it but of rejuvenating it .

                                   Other projects do include the urbanisations and also planting almost 3000 trees around the
                                   town . The mayor believes that the government money for the urbanisations should be through
                                   within 6 weeks or so .
