The Titerroy Neighborhood Association has reported that some residents of the neighborhood have been waiting since 2017 for help to rehabilitate their homes.
From the Association they point out that, in that year, the Arrecife City Council explained in a press release that citizens could request help for the rehabilitation of their “habitual and permanent” home.
“Many people took advantage of this help”, say the Titerroy Neighborhood Association, who criticize that five years later, the City Council has not paid “the second part of the help”, and that they were never published in the Official Gazette of the province, as dictated by law.
The Association points out that “a technical error” has prevented the file for this aid from being closed, and the neighbors have to continue waiting for the Intervention Office to “pronounce itself in recognizing what is owed to many citizens”, because these subsidies “did not follow their legal course.”
“Now to wait if the Intervention office can correct the error, or not”, say the residents of Titerroy, and emphasize that if the intervening body disagrees with the substance or form of the acts, documents or files examined, “it must formulate its objections in writing.”
Some neighbors have not been able to pay the professionals
From the Titerroy Neighborhood Association they assure that there are neighbors who carried out their rehabilitation and paid “on their own” to the companies. However, they also point out that there are other residents of the city who have not been able to pay the professionals who carried out the work.
Faced with this problem, dated December 1, the neighborhood group addressed the mayor, requesting “information”, and asked the technicians to prepare “a report” that would clarify the situation. “To date, no response has been given”, denounce from the Neighborhood Association.
The residents of Titerroy recall that the Arrecife City Council committed another "error" in July 2011, with “the file for the renovation of urban areas in the Titerroy neighborhood”. That file, according to the neighbors, should have been published in the Official Gazette of the European Community, something that “was not carried out.”
“The Arrecife City Council has not had the courtesy to recognize its errors, and explain them well to the citizens who are affected”, they criticize, and emphasize that the neighbors have been waiting to collect the aid that was publicly sold by the former councilor of the PSOE, Victoria Sande.
