New Canary Islands (NC) regrets that Tacoronte is not part of the list of fifteen municipalities on the Island that will receive grants to acquire and promote completed or pending housing units, to be allocated to social housing within the framework of the Insular Active Housing Programme 2024.
The Canarian party denounces that the local Town Council, “comprised of three organizations that in almost a year of tenure have not initiated a single project,” has already lost over 2 million Euros on planned actions with budget allocation from the previous term’s government, as they have only focused their efforts on squandering Tacoronte residents’ money on parties and financing their political campaigns.
NC spokesperson, José Daniel Díaz, stated in a press release that the current City Council even requested an extension of the error rectification deadline in relation to this call, but noted that “the lack of knowledge within both the local and insular administration is such that the Island Government Council denied it as it concerns a competitive tender process because the documentation was not submitted on time.”
Thus, it is explained that the loss of the subsidy for public housing for the most disadvantaged and the acquisition of land for this purpose “demonstrates that this government, made up of PSOE, CC and PP, is completely entrenched in managing an endless party that never ends.”
In the release, Díaz asserts that the governing group and the person in charge of the Housing department, the socialist Tarsis Morales, “have not only failed to present a quality project, but by not submitting the necessary documentation, they have let a very important opportunity pass by for all neighbours and families in need of housing and accommodation, and they have done so out of sheer negligence and indifference.” Faced with repeated displays of ignorance and inaction, New Canary Islands demands Morales’s resignation, and also urges the other members of the ruling coalition to “follow suit.”
