Amidst the significant impact of the vote of no confidence against him, along with the closure of Playa Jardín due to pollution as one of the reasons cited by PP, ACP, and CC, the current mayor of Puerto de la Cruz, the socialist Marco González, revealed yesterday the news he shared in a party meeting on Monday night.
According to reports from various media sources, the specialist company contracted by the town hall to investigate the sewage leaks in Punta Brava, which led to the closure of the popular three coves on the orders of Public Health, attributes much of the deterioration of the situation to leaks in the pipes and network of the seminary, which is under the jurisdiction of the Cabildo.
The company responsible for the report, Weit Ingeniería Hidráulica y Marítima, held discussions with the mayor yesterday morning. While not ruling out the existence of multiple factors, he emphasized the efforts made by his administration in recent years to address the issue and ensure the safety of swimmers. “When we took office, we knew that the major infrastructures were inadequate, so we urged the Council to expand the treatment plant. Funds were allocated for this purpose, along with plans for the complete renovation of the sewage outfall.”
