It took several months for the tripartite Government of Tacoronte, made up of the PSOE, Nueva Canarias (NC) and Sí se Podemos, to redistribute the government areas after the departure of three councilors from the first formation, two of them expelled for disobedience to the Carlos Medina and Sandra Ramos party and the resignation for personal reasons of Carmen Dorta, who was replaced by Sandra Izquierdo.
Finally, the changes were finalized on Wednesday, after the last meeting of the pact monitoring table in which the representatives of the three parties agreed to continue maintaining the initial balance of the agreement between formations and people, signed in June 2019, in which the signatories established 11 Councils, 5 managed by the PSOE, 4 by NC and 2 by SSP, proportional to the number of representatives obtained in the last municipal elections.
Thus, in addition to Urban Planning, Heritage, Accessibility, Transportation and Mobility, and Coasts, the socialist Tarsis Morales will show Finance and Contracting, while his partner from Rows Sandra Izquierdo will add Commerce to the areas of Culture and Festivities and Julio Navarro, current head of Traffic and Citizen Safety, it will also be for Cemeteries.
Perhaps the main novelty is that NC adds to its powers the area of Works and Services that entails Water, Sanitation and Public Lighting, which will be assumed by José Antonio Gil Goya because the PSOE has only three councilors of the five it had at the beginning of the mandate given that Medina and Ramos have become unaffiliated.
In the local Government Board, this party will have three mayoral tenures and the current two can be maintained, the same number of Nueva Canarias, in whose responsibility the Mayor’s Office falls.
The decrees of delegations will materialize in the coming days, confirms the mayor, José Daniel Díaz.
Regarding the assessment of the government pact, the three formations understood that “apart from certain ups and downs that this mandate has had, more internal political than internal of the City Council”, the management is going well and there are important projects to launch from next year linked to strategic sectors and also confirmed that the agreement signed in 2019 “continues to be the best for Tacoronte,” adds the president.
