The mayor of Torrelavega, Javier López Estrada, has highlighted the impulse that is being given to the construction of housing to promote access to this market, with the implementation of a “proactive strategy”, working on three projects that involve the construction of a thousand homes, some of them also with “affordable” prices.
Thus, López Estrada has recalled that it is developing the El Valle Partial Plan, with nearly 900 homes, 450 in the first phase that is already under construction. Of them, 42 will be financed by the Government of Cantabria through the project presented today to execute 212 officially protected homes under an affordable rental regime through a public-private procedure.
In addition, López Estrada has detailed that the City Council has managed the execution of 12 homes on Marquéses de Valdecilla y Pelayo streets, which will also allow “eliminating a critical point of coexistence that we had in the La Inmoliaria neighborhood, and what better way than to do it?” with affordable housing and that the young people or the elderly in the neighborhood can access them.” The mayor has also referred to another 12 homes that are going to be built in El Zapatón, on a plot owned by Gesvican.
“We are frankly satisfied with these projects and we continue working on the development of land to fight against the lack of housing in the city of Torrelavega,” stressed López Estrada, thanking the Minister of Public Works for “his drive and decision” to carry out these projects. three “important projects”.
Some statements that the mayor of Torrelavega made during the presentation of the initiative of the Government of Cantabria which, according to the Minister of Development and Housing, Roberto Media, will involve the execution of 212 officially protected homes under an affordable rental regime through a public-private procedure, which will generate savings of 17.3 million euros for the regional Executive, “an amount that will be used to continue increasing the public housing stock in the Community.”
As you have explained, These 212 properties will not be 100% financed by the public company Gesvicán, but rather a public-private procedure will be used in which the Government of Cantabria will continue to control the rental price and tenants’ access to these homes, which will be carried out under the same conditions as in the rest of public developments.
To this end, the public company Gesvicán will put out to public tender in the coming days a procedure for awarding the surface right for the construction of 212 homes in six municipalities, whose representatives have participated in the counselor’s appearance, in which they have also been the general director of Housing, Carlos Montes; and the manager of Gesvicán, Carlos Gala.
The company that is awarded this surface right, for a period of 50 years, will subsequently be in charge of drafting the projects, paying for licenses and building the homes. During this time, in addition, the successful bidder will have the obligation to keep them in optimal condition and return them to the government when that period expires.
“The rental prices will be regulated by the Administration and we will make available to the company that manages it the waiting list that we have to access public housing,” stated Media, while ensuring that each of the contracts that is signed will pass the control and verification of the General Directorate of Housing as they are protected housing.
In addition to the 42 homes that will be built in the El Valle area in Torrelavega; 39 will be built in Reinosa, on the site of the Antigua Clínica on Avenida Castilla; 37 in Laredo, in sector IV of the PGOU; 36 in Santa Cruz de Bezana, on Avenida de la Libertad in Mompía; 30 in Polanco, in the Mijares neighborhood of Rumoroso; and 28 in Santoña, on Celestino del Piélago street.
