SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, Sep 2 (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Governing Council this Thursday authorized the acceptance of 22 plots free of charge by the City Council of Gáldar, in Gran Canaria, in which the Ministry of Public Works, Transport and Housing will build a total of 58 new homes in the coming months protected areas of public promotion included in the Canary Islands Housing Plan 2020-2025.
With the ratified authorization, the Canarian Housing Institute (ICAVI) will proceed to accept the free transfer of these 22 municipal property plots valued at 866,398 euros and will formalize said transfer through an agreement between the ICAVI and the City Council of Gáldar.
Thus, these are two blocks with 22 plots located on José de Sosa Street, between the neighborhoods of San Isidro and El Roque, in which two two-story buildings with 29 homes each will be built, for a total of 58 the protected homes that the Government of the Canary Islands will build in this municipality in the north of Gran Canaria.
Once this transfer is completed by means of the signing of the agreement between both administrations, ICAVI will initiate the administrative process to contract the drafting of the project and the subsequent execution of the works, in order to deliver the homes to their awardees at the end of this legislature .
This new promotion of protected housing in the north of Gran Canaria joins the lots that the Government of the Canary Islands has promoted in recent months to recruit the drafting of several projects on different islands.
These projects will allow the construction of approximately 600 new protected homes to be started up in the near future, which are included in the construction program of the 2020-2025 Canary Islands Housing Plan.
This ambitious program that foresees the construction in five years of more than 6,000 new protected properties for rent, in those Canarian municipalities where there is a greater number of applicants for public housing.
Thus, in Lanzarote, for example, there is the extraordinary case that, thanks to the 2020-2025 Housing Plan, the first protected houses will be built after 26 years without a single public housing on the island.
