The mayor of Mogán, Onalia Bueno, wanted to emphasize that “we are in luck because it is the first time that the municipality has obtained a grant from the Government of the Canary Islands of this caliber to carry out a project like this, which is so necessary in Arguineguín“.
There will be those who are skeptical of such an award for a facility that many question in terms of necessity and desirability, particularly in the year running up to the next municipal elections, due in May 2019.
