Overview
- Morena's congressional coordinators announced on Friday, October 9 that they will formally ask the Consejo de Desarrollo Metropolitano to revise parts of the POZMVM draft that create uncertainty about property taxes and land use.
- Mexico City head Clara Brugada publicly affirmed there will be no increase to the city’s property tax while the program remains under consultation and urged residents not to be misled.
- Enrique Irazoque, head of Metrópoli, said the POZMVM is a consultative metropolitan planning instrument that cannot by itself change municipal tax rules, alter land‑use powers, or force sales of private property.
- The PAN published excerpts from the draft citing nine specific risks, including references it interprets as allowing higher predial, a new urban waste charge, a ‘floating zoning’ figure, recovery of plusvalías, and public auctions of properties.
- The dispute has moved the plan into active political and technical review with Morena inviting Metrópoli to brief legislators and signaling coordination with Estado de México, Hidalgo and Morelos while the public consultation continues.
