The Superior Court of Justice of the Canary Islands (TSJC) has demanded that the mayor of Teguise, Oswaldo Betancort, inform it within thirty days about the situation of the demolition process of another of the skeletons that have marred Costa Teguise for more than a decade, whose demolition has been requested by the Cabildo. In this specific case, it is the structure of the hotel on plot 242-B of Costa Teguise.
The new judicial resolution, issued last week, comes in response to a previous letter from the mayor, who on December 19, 2022, forwarded to the Second Section of the Contentious-Administrative Chamber of the TSJC a requirement made to PROMONTORIA COLISEUM REAL ESTATE SLY, pointing out various deficiencies in the demolition project of the structure illegally erected on plot 242-B, granting the promoting company two months to correct the project.
According to them, "the pressure exerted by the Cabildo of Lanzarote, through its legal services, has paid off and has ensured that the Court maintains a vigilant attitude towards Betancort's previous breaches, who for many years has been delaying the forced execution of the judgments affecting Costa Teguise."
“We are going to continue demanding the restoration of legality after ten years of complicit passivity between Oswaldo Betancort and Pedro San Ginés,” said the president of the Cabildo, María Dolores Corujo, who highlighted: “No one can be surprised by this passivity when San Ginés' landlord directed the legal strategy of the municipalities that failed to comply with the Island Plan and the promoters of illegal hotels.”
“These shameful skeletons, a mark of the urban corruption of the Canarian Coalition, do affect our image as a tourist destination, but the employers' associations and the spokespersons for the brick mafia do not talk about that indecent mark,” the president concluded.
