Alternativa Ciudadana 25 de mayo will ask the Prosecutor's Office to investigate whether or not a crime was committed in the granting of the license for the Islas Canarias parking lot, according to the councilor of the formation in Arrecife, Blanca Blancas. "We are collecting all the data and, as soon as we have it, we will present it to the Prosecutor's Office", the councilor pointed out.
The political group already presented a motion in the plenary session, to demand responsibilities for the granting of this parking lot, declared illegal by the TSJC. "They told us that the legal services were not there to make reports of that type, to look for whether or not there were indications of bad habits, and they sent us to the corresponding instances and that is what we are going to do", Blanca Blancas explained.
Thus, Alternativa Ciudadana will go to the Prosecutor's Office to determine whether or not a crime was committed, after deciding it, unanimously, in an assembly that took place last week. The date that the formation handles as a deadline to file the lawsuit, according to the councilor in Arrecife, Domingo García, is next December 15.
Meanwhile, the formation is finishing collecting all possible information about the Islas Canarias parking lot. A task in which, according to Domingo García, they are finding "difficulties". Especially, they are finding it difficult to access the documents on how the company that operates the parking lot was formed, in which the City Council participates in 11 percent, and the minutes of the board of directors.
"It is curious that even the mayor told us that he had participated in one, but we are not able to access the minutes of those meetings, because the officials themselves say that in the City Council there is no type of documentation of those minutes and in that part it is getting a little complicated for us", García explained in this regard.
"Scribbles" in the documents
Regarding the documents, García pointed out that "it is surprising" that in those reports that had to do with the concession only "scribbles" appear. "They do not have any legible signature. Nobody knows who made that scribble. Some can be assumed, because they are already known, but there is no specific name", the councilor specified.
Likewise, García stressed that the reports are made "in a different format than the usual one of the Technical Office". "Where were those reports really made? Were they made in the Technical Office? Were they made in a place other than the City Council? We want all of that to be clarified and also who is behind those scribbles, because it is not logical that in a matter as important for the City Council, as is an occupation in this case of public space, nobody takes responsibility and is limited to making a scribble", added the councilor of Alternativa Ciudadana.
"What problem is there if they are sure that it was done well? Nothing happens. If it was done well, everyone is so calm, and if not, let everyone pay their responsibilities, because we also have to pay for our actions. But let nobody expect that they can do whatever they want and that nothing will ever happen because, then, those of us who are playing the fool here are always those who act legally", added Domingo García.
García also pointed out that his colleague Blanca Blancas received "a call from the mayor" telling her "that there was no need to get into those messes". "The colleague Blanca, with a certain sense of irony, told him: look, we are limited to what you simply send us. And if not, they should not have said anything to us", concluded the councilor.
