Adeje new regulations on timeshare selling

[Michael]

Forgive me if i'm misreading the whole thing but this isn't exactly clearing the streets is it?

I'm still going to get harassed only they'll have a license now. 

If I was given the choice between street sellers, PRs and cockroaches and told I had to keep one, i'd go for the cockroaches.

They'll be restricting the number of them, and the places and times where they can operate ... and unless the report is mistaken, they'll have to wear uniforms and certainly carry a card, so they'll be far more avoidable.

In addition to which IIRC they need to deposit a €5000 security for each one. Who is going to do that?

Now howmutch will be teoreticly law and how will it be in practice . . . .

Think there wont be a lot  of differance in the end .
Lets hope its different.
We will have to wait and see .

Wouldn't it be wonderful if they cleared the streets completely?

The professionally produced videos never show the scratchcard touts, the leafleteers, the lookie lookie men and the PRs. They might entice tourists to come, but will they come a second time? The street plague must deter some.

I have a dream!!

Between May and August Adeje has initiated 49 denuncias against "aggressive touting" on the municipality's streets in accordance with the new bylaw. The Ayuntamiento says that enforcement of the regulations has been progressively successful, increasingly as local companies realized the council was serious in its determination to control the practice for "the peaceful enjoyment of Adeje's tourists". Some dozen or so officials have been patrolling the promenades and beach areas, and will continue to do so.

Police say that that although minor pickpocketing and street vending continues, as is inevitable to some degree in such an area, the summer has been "quite quiet": they say that they will continue to monitor the areas to minimise the nuisance, particularly to avoid drinks sellers and masseurs in Adeje's beaches, so as to ensure the area maintains its 5* image.
