The Cambrils City Council, through an agreement signed on Friday with the Generalitat de Catalunya, will build 86 new affordable housing units on two municipal plots located on Nova Augusta Avenue and Carles Roig Square.

These two sites join a plot on Anoia Street, ceded last year for the construction of 52 homes for young people. The agreement, part of the 50,000 Plan, tasks the Catalan Housing Agency with managing a public tender to award the construction of the new public apartments.
The signing ceremony, presided over by the President of the Generalitat, Salvador Illa, included the participation of 58 Catalan municipalities that have provided land to promote temporary protected housing. The plot on Nova Augusta Avenue (862 m²) will house 54 apartments for families, while the one on Carles Roig Square (482 m²) will allow for a maximum of 32 apartments for the elderly.
The Agency will reserve up to 10% of rental or usage-right housing for situations of greater residential vulnerability, and a minimum of 25% for young people under 35. The Mayor of Cambrils, Oliver Klein, highlighted that the measure facilitates access to housing, considering it a right and not a privilege, and assured the government's commitment to ensuring a real and affordable supply, expanding the public housing stock.
