Nayra Callero, councilor of the non-attached group of the Arrecife City Council, has explained the situation of the works on her terrace and has assured that it is "an aluminum enclosure, in the part that corresponds to the balcony", which was "authorized" by the community's board of owners. Callero has pointed out that at this moment she is immersed in a procedure in the City Council, by which she can be given the option of legalizing the work or, on the contrary, she will have to restore the altered legal order.
"The process has not finished, it has not concluded, nobody has told me that I have to do or stop doing something," said the councilor, who has been indignant with the accusations launched from Citizen Alternative. Callero explained that as soon as she started the works "she communicated it because she assumed that a series of rubble was going to occur." "They told me to submit a communicated act, to ask for a tray if I had to ask for it for the rubble and to pay the fees," she insisted on Radio Lanzarote-Onda Cero.
Callero tore down the kitchen wall to the living room and it was then that she decided that it might be a good idea to close the terrace with this aluminum. "I asked the community and they told me that in the same building there was another one with the same conditions, that I should do it that way because the closure was authorized by the community's board of owners. I did it, because once in works they assure me that I am within the possibility of legalizing it," she defended.
The councilor has lamented her "bad luck" because the president of the community in which she lives is Vicente Dorta, councilor of the PP in Arrecife. According to Callero, Dorta should have already convened a board of owners to address these works, something that the councilor has requested "repeatedly". "Why is the terrace that is closed authorized and mine seems that I have committed the biggest crime on this side of the pond?", she asked.
The councilor has stated that "hopefully" she had not made this aluminum closure, which she is still paying for because they gave her the possibility of financing it. "Look if I had planned to set up the monumental in the middle of Arrecife that I have not even finished paying for it," she indicated.
"Double standard of Citizen Alternative"
Nayra Callero wanted to make it clear that her decision to send a statement, accusing the councilor of Citizen Alternative, Blanca Blancas, of doing "illegal" works in her home, does not arise to "try to minimize" the works on her terrace. "What pushes me to issue a statement is the double standard of Citizen Alternative, which goes back to a pulpit to criticize everyone else, thinking that they are the cleanest, the most neat and the most honest."
Callero has also denounced that AC takes "the personal life" of people "to the public arena". "It seems that I dedicate myself to committing crimes and using my charms to do everything I want and more. And, meanwhile, I endure that they continue to talk in such a shameful way about my private life, even imputing me a series of activities that may even be criminal," she lamented.
Thus, she insisted that there are "certain councilors" who are "the Inquisition and are looking for the irregularities" that "the rest of mortals" may have committed. The councilor would "like to know" if Citizen Alternative will adopt any decision on the allegedly irregular works in Blanca Blancas' house. "Is AC going to pursue this irregularity? Is it going to say publicly that it may constitute a possible crime? Or is it going to remain silent?", Callero asked, who has made it clear that she will not resign from her position for these facts.
