Hi Sue & John
Welcome to your new home at Dream Hills 2 and also to the forum. My partner was the President of our Urbanisation for the first three years and last December I was voted in for the job ( I stood in his place with the theory that I would not get as many physical and verbal threats as him as I am a woman!)
Our pool is walled/gated and we have a antilslipped tiles area around the pool, so ours maybe be a lot different from yours. For the first two years owners used to bring their own loungers and parasols but as some own top floor apartments we (as in the President/Committee) were asked if it was possible to buy such items for use around the pool. This suggestion, as all suggestions by owners do, went on the agenda to be voted on at the A.G.M. It was voted for by a large majority and the loungers and parasols were purchased and put in place by us. What I am saying is that no President could (or should that be should, by what I am hearing) make such decisions by themselves, or with the Committee. I suggest that you contact the President or the Administrator and see where the decision to ban sunloungers around the pool was mentioned in the minutes and the reasoning for it and by what majority the rule was passed.
It could be that
there is a valid reason for the banning of sunbeds. We have several rules that are mainly common sense e.g. no glass or crockery - the pool would have to be drained if there was broken glass in it - nappies or suiltable swimwear for babies - we had an accident once and the pool had to close- no smoking - Spanish law in a public place where children are admitted- No food - the cleaning up, fly, wasp and ant problems etc.,
If there is not a valid reason for this rule, and it was either brought in by a small majority or not voted on at all, then you should be able to have the subject added to the agenda at your next Annual General Meeting so that you and other owners can vote on it, and whether you want it to remain. There is a forum for Dream Hills which Morerosado mentions iand has given you the link for. If you registered you could ask your questions on there as well as here, although you will get unbiased answers on this one from owners of properties on many different Communities
