Of the 1,073 homes, 989 belong to the municipality of San Cristóbal de La Laguna, 35 to Tacoronte and 49 to Tegueste.
At the meeting held online this Monday, representatives of the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge (MITERD), the Government of the Canary Islands and the municipalities of La Laguna and Tegueste were informed of these and other developments such as the inclusion in the Acoustic Insulation Plan of 38 new homes, which have proven that they meet the necessary requirements and in which the acoustic measurements will be carried out, and the request for another 4, pending submission of documentation.
They have also been informed of the finding in 51 more homes, where these measurements have already been made, the need to carry out the relevant soundproofing actions, which implies the realization of the corresponding projects and budgets. And the approval of the amounts necessary to carry out actions on 3 buildings, works that must previously have both the agreement of the neighbors, and the corresponding municipal permits.
The current census of properties included in the Noise Insulation Plan of the Tenerife North Airport-La Laguna City is 2,446, 2,200 corresponding to San Cristóbal de La Laguna, 115 to Tacoronte and 131 to Tegueste.
