Overview

• In Tijuana, a city regidor reported roughly 40 amparos filed by shopping centers against the measure, with about 30 targeting the law and 10 the implementing regulation.
• Courts have granted suspensions in some of those cases while others continue without protection, leaving uneven application across plazas.
• Tijuana residents are being told to report noncompliance to the Dirección de Inspección y Verificación Municipal for follow-up inspections.
• In Mexicali on Wednesday, inspectors lifted gates and suspended parking charges at Plaza Sendero for failing to offer the required 40 minutes after reviews of 18–20 plazas found most were giving only 15–20 minutes.
• The rule mandates 40 free minutes without conditions and was approved by the Baja California Congress and the Tijuana Cabildo, and officials note parking prices beyond the free period are market-driven rather than municipally regulated.
