Mayor Says Senator Fernández Noroña’s Tepoztlán Home Is Off the Tax Rolls

The confirmation highlights gaps in Tepoztlán’s land registry.

Overview

  • Independent Mayor Perseo Quiroz confirmed the parcel occupied by Senator Gerardo Fernández Noroña’s house is not in the municipal cadastre and therefore is not paying municipal property taxes.
  • The residence is described in coverage as a mansion located in Achichipique, one of Tepoztlán’s wealthier areas.
  • Reforma and El Norte reported the confirmation on August 31 with bylines credited to Víctor Osorio.
  • The reports note no announced audits, enforcement measures, or other administrative actions, and they do not include a public response from the senator to the cadastral finding.
  • Quiroz cited a broader local issue by pointing to 2020 data indicating around 15,000 dwellings in Tepoztlán but roughly 7,000 registered in the cadastre.
