The councilor of the Cabildo of Lanzarote and mayor of Yaiza, Óscar Noda, has requested the appearance after the numerous doubts that have arisen around the aforementioned file in which the Centers of Art, Culture and Tourism of Lanzarote awarded the company “Cumbre 8” for 3.3 million euros for a project lasting four years, with the possibility of extending it for one more year.
According to the councilor, "he intends to seek a new tourist model in which to have fewer tourists but who spend more, a plan that, Vázquez asserts, could not be awarded to any conejera company because there is no company in Lanzarote that has submitted and, furthermore, there is none with the required characteristics." However, "this does not coincide with the work recently carried out by the public company SPEL in which it seemed to share the same object of contract without requiring a contracting that is very high for all purposes."
According to Noda, “it would be good, transparent and democratic for the councilor to explain well the details of this contract in which we are going to spend 3.3 million euros on a matter that, it seems, a priori, could have been channeled and developed by the more than proven professionals of SPEL.”
For Noda, "it is necessary to give the appropriate explanations about the contracting criteria, about the price of the contract, as well as the strategic policy of the Centers of Art, Culture and Tourism of Lanzarote in relation to its purpose, and especially trying to explain why jobs are duplicated between entities dependent on the Cabildo of Lanzarote, making it clear that it is not intended to make any type of inquisitorial proposition, but simply to clarify the doubts that exist and surround the contracting of said company."
