Pisos Rosas: Fuerteventura Avanza accuses CC and PSOE of misleading El Charco residents
1. Key points
Fuerteventura Avanza accuses Puerto del Rosario's governing group (CC and PSOE) of inconsistency over the Pisos Rosas in El Charco.
Last May the party tabled a motion for the full refurbishment of the complex, which was rejected in the council plenary.
Weeks later, the Town Hall reportedly announced it would study works on the same buildings.
Spokeswoman Peña Armas denounces the lack of a timetable, budget allocation and concrete commitments.
The party pledges to keep defending initiatives on housing, security and the municipality's neighbourhoods.
2. The news in detail
Housing is back at the centre of political conflict in Puerto del Rosario. Fuerteventura Avanza has accused mayor David de Vera and the governing group of Coalición Canaria and PSOE of turning the housing issue into a propaganda tool, following the Town Hall's announcement that it will study future refurbishment works in the so-called Pisos Rosas in the El Charco neighbourhood.
The party recalls that last May it tabled a motion for the full refurbishment of this residential complex, including technical reports, the search for funding and an action plan to address the serious deterioration affecting several buildings in the area. That proposal, the party maintains, was rejected in the council plenary precisely by Coalición Canaria and PSOE.
For Fuerteventura Avanza it is "difficult to find a clearer example of political incoherence": the governing group has now reportedly included in an institutional statement the possibility of studying works on the Pisos Rosas — exactly what it rejected when the opposition put it forward.
The party considers it particularly serious that the announcement contains no concrete novelty: no execution timetable, no specific budget line and no firm commitment. "While families find it increasingly hard to access decent housing," the party states, "the municipal government simply chains together announcements." Fuerteventura Avanza pledges to keep defending initiatives on housing, security and the improvement of neighbourhoods.
3. Voices and statements
"When we put forward a proposal for the residents of El Charco they said no. Just weeks later they appear in a photo saying they will study the very thing they voted against. It is a lack of respect for residents," said the spokeswoman for Fuerteventura Avanza, Peña Armas.
4. Context and background
The complaint was released on 15 June 2026 by Fuerteventura Avanza, an opposition party in the Puerto del Rosario Town Hall. It concerns the Pisos Rosas in the El Charco neighbourhood, a residential complex that, according to the party, suffers serious deterioration in several buildings. The background is the motion for full refurbishment tabled in May and — according to the party — rejected in the council plenary by Coalición Canaria and PSOE.
5. What it means for Fuerteventura
The Pisos Rosas case reflects one of the most sensitive issues in Fuerteventura: access to housing and the regeneration of historic neighbourhoods such as El Charco in Puerto del Rosario. Beyond the clash between the governing group and the opposition, the debate affects thousands of local families living with rising prices and buildings in need of repair.
