Residents Object to Establishment of Migrant Youth Centre in Santa Úrsula

In Santa Úrsula, locals are against the establishment of a centre for migrant minors in the heart of the town, which is currently under consideration by the Government of the Canary Islands but has not yet been finalised, according to sources from the Ministry of Social Welfare, Equality, Youth, Children and Families.
The proposed site is at 5 Rambla Doctor Pérez Street, within the María Victoria building premises where a gym operated until February 16 for 19 years. The property owners were only informed about this “social integration project” ten days ago by the Government, after they were notified about the new purpose of the premises.
The letter accessed by DIARIO DE AVISOS states that the facilities will host a social integration project run by an association affiliated with the immigration social integration initiatives of both the national and local governments. The project will include the employment of cleaning staff, 24-hour security, and social educators.
Despite this, the department emphasises that this decision is one of many possibilities and has not yet been finalised.
Many residents are voicing dissatisfaction and concern about this project, which has not received official confirmation from the authorities, including the local City Council which is required to authorise such social services.
The government group denies having official knowledge of the proposed project and refutes statements made through unofficial channels. Similarly, the City Council awaits further communication from the relevant authorities.
Residents find it hard to trust the assurances given by the local government, especially after witnessing furniture and belongings being moved into the premises without prior notice or explanation.
Furthermore, there are doubts about the suitability of the location, which is not in the metropolitan area offering better transportation links and employment opportunities.

Petition Signing

Last week, a petition was launched on change.org to oppose the establishment of the centre and prevent its realisation, garnering 331 signatures by yesterday afternoon.
The Administration Board clarifies that if the proposed installation meets all municipal requirements, it can proceed. The Community of Owners lacks the authority to regulate or prevent such installations on private property, as that power lies with the municipal and/or regional government.
