The regional government of Madeira will pay 1.6 million euros for not respecting the contractual obligation to guarantee the "flow of water necessary" to the normal operation of the golf course of Santo da Serra.
This figure is the result of an agreement reached between the regional government and the owners of the golf course, according to a supplement published today in the region's official gazette.
According to the supplement, the region has "the contractual obligation to make available to the company's irrigation network the flow of water necessary to ensure the normal operation of the golf course" , which has not happened yet.

Faced with this inability to fulfill the contractual obligations, the regional executive "was commissioned to order an irrigation project adapted to the water supply possibilities, which imposes the assumption of new charges. and the need to close the field in stages resulting in a loss of income, "reads in the supplement.

According to the supplement, this agreement allows the region to assume "only a portion of the costs claimed by the golf club of Santo da Serra, which are inherent in the work of installing a new system. Irrigation, laying of grass mats and rebuilding greens ". , in which he will pay 1,641,000 euros for this purpose.
