Recently, a new follow-up meeting of the General Urban Planning Plan (PGOU) of Santiago del Teide was held in the town hall, attended by the mayor Emilio Navarro, the Town Planning Councilor Luz Goretti Gorrín, the Municipal Secretary Argeo Manuel Tosco, municipal technicians and members of the drafting team of the Full Substantial Modification of the General Planning Plan of the municipality (URBANFIX SL).
The meeting served to outline the latest details on the new arrangement contained in the Draft and the Initial Strategic Document for its prompt processing, since it was agreed to advance citizen participation to the phase at hand in order to have a greater consensus and Transparency throughout the procedure.
For Emilio Navarro and his entire government team, it is a priority to respond to the problems presented by the current document that, after almost twenty years of validity, has not met many of the objectives it contains. Thus, solving the problem of access to housing in traditional nuclei or preparing enough land to host complementary activities to the tourist accommodation offer have become priority objectives in an ambitious document that seeks to adapt public policies to the new current framework established by the Sustainable Development Goals and the Urban Agenda.
Finally, the start date for citizen participation was set on March 30, starting at 6:30 p.m. at the Tamaimo Social Center, with a call open to all citizens, businesses, and the general public who want to add proposals in a document that is called to guarantee the well-being of the population of the municipality.
