President Leonel Fernandez inaugurated a new housing complex in Canca la Piedra in Tamboril near Santiago, followed by a subsidized canteen in Navarrete on Thursday 2 February
The Progreso housing complex cost RD$194 million, and the canteen just over RD$13 million of government money. The 256 apartments in 16 two-story buildings were built by the National Housing Institute (INVI) for people who lost their homes after the February 2008 floods in Carlos Diaz in Tamboril. President Fernandez also broke ground for the second stage of the project, consisting of 96 new homes to provide housing for all those affected in Carlos Diaz. The government also proposes to build a school and a church in the same area.
INVI director Alma Fernandez said that the government has provided dozens of housing projects to families affected by disasters across the country, with 1,262 in the province of Santiago alone, and that the President will be inaugurating new housing projects in 20 municipalities before 10 May.
The mayor of Tamboril, Anyolino Germosen, presented President Fernandez with a plaque in gratitude for the project on behalf of the Carlos Diaz Neighborhood Committee.
Chamber of Deputies president Abel Martinez, Interior and Police Minister Jose Ramon Fadul, Minister for Women Alejandrina German, Public Administration Minister Ramon Ventura Camejo and the director of the Business Improvement Trust Fund (FOMPER), Jose Augusto Izquierdo, also attended the inauguration ceremony along with others including State Subsidized Canteens administrator Nicolas Calderon, businessman Manuel Estrella, and Luis Cifres, director of the Office of Supervising Engineers of State Projects.
