The Government Council of the Canary Islands, at the proposal of the Minister of Public Works, Transport and Housing, Sebastián Franquis, has approved this Thursday the authorization of the expenditure of 8,231,979 euros to start the contracting of the construction works of 65 new homes protected, included in the Canary Islands Housing Plan 2020-2025, in the neighborhood of San Antonio, in the Tenerife municipality of La Orotava.

The new homes in the San Antonio I development, in the homonymous neighborhood of La Orotava, will be built on a plot ceded to the Canary Islands Housing Institute (ICAVI), intended for the construction of two developments of 65 subsidized public housing, one of which it was already completed and delivered to housing applicants in 2015.
The plot that will house this new promotion has an area of 3,393 square meters and is located in the area known as ‘Urbanización Barbuzano’.
The San Antonio I promotion will be distributed in two residential buildings four stories high, organized into two portals each, with independent stairs and elevators, distributing the homes four stories high above the street level, a garage floor in a semi-basement and a semi-basement floor for a storage room, includes a note from the Executive.

Each building will have a fire-fighting water tank, as well as two water supply tanks, one for each portal, with their corresponding hydrocompressors, and an adapted itinerary is also projected to the homes reserved for PRM from each garage floor via the elevator. .
The base budget for bidding for the works amounts to 7,483,617 euros, but almost one million more is reserved to settle the works when they are finished and to deal with possible unforeseen events.
