The Vallehermoso Town Council approved on Friday, November 13, 2026, during an extraordinary plenary session, the twinning with the Tenerife municipality of the Villa y Puerto de Garachico. This initiative aims to strengthen historical, cultural, and institutional ties between the two towns, which share a common identity and historical elements.
The agreement will foster stronger relationships, highlight their roots, traditions, and cultural heritage, and open doors for future collaborative projects. Mayor of Vallehermoso, Emiliano Coello, emphasized the twinning's importance in reinforcing bonds and promoting mutual understanding.
During the session, a collaboration agreement with the Island Council of La Gomera was also approved, with a budget of 10,000 euros, for promotional and commercial activities scheduled for December 19, coinciding with the Christmas campaign. The goal is to stimulate local commerce and encourage shopping in Vallehermoso's establishments.
Finally, the council authorized an addendum to extend the execution deadline for projects funded by the Canary Islands Development Fund (FDCAN). This modification will provide more time to complete pending tasks for the opening of the municipal gym and changing rooms, aiming to enhance the municipality's sports services and facilities.
