The Local Government Board of the Tacoronte City Council has decided to issue a construction permit to Casas Canarias de Campo SL for the finalisation of the works associated with the Karimar Urbanisation project, also referred to as Hacienda del Guanche, as reported by the council yesterday during its most recent session of this month.
The local administration (PSOE-CC-PP) highlights that, following 33 years, “the file has been unblocked,” dating from October 1991, which pertains to the construction and urban development of this coastal area situated in the centre of Guayonje.
Now, the development entity is expected to invest approximately one million euros in this residential locality, enhancing it with improved roads, sanitation, lighting, and green spaces.
The intended investment aims to comprehensively enhance the urbanisation, located between kilometre point 2+250 of the TF-165 island highway and the nearest cliff along the Tacorontera coast. Completion of this undertaking will bring about a considerable improvement in the quality of life for residents of the area, offering quality services and improving the distinctive panoramic views of the location.
These developments will also facilitate access to the municipal facilities currently managed by Dragomar via an administrative concession, while paving the way for future initiatives involving the establishment of commercial and educational functions, as well as the creation of a plaza with a viewpoint.
The licence addresses the historical issues surrounding road connectivity that the urbanisation has faced, enabling better road links with the neighbouring residential zones, in an area where communities such as Mesa del Mar, Guayonje, or El Pris are situated.
The Councillor for Urban Planning, Tarsis Morales, expressed his enthusiasm for this “significant” advancement for Tacoronte, facilitated by a “tailored” document that adheres to current regulations due to the updating of outdated technical elements of the original project, such as its own water storage reserve or the implementation of an irrigation network separate from the urban supply, which will allow, in the future, for the regeneration of treated water.
The top local official, Sanda Izquierdo, underscores the government’s commitment to resolving this situation, asserting that the work “will commence to take shape in the near future.”
