PAN Demands New Timeline From Brugada as Mexico City Development Plan Stalls

Opposition argues November consultations set by the planning institute make finishing the plan in 2025 unrealistic.

Overview

  • Olivia Garza, who chairs the Mexico City Congress Planning Commission, urged Head of Government Clara Brugada to present a new roadmap with firm dates for the Plan General de Desarrollo.
  • Garza cited Brugada’s November 14, 2024 announcement of a five-step schedule targeting completion by June 2025 and said none of those milestones were met after 284 days.
  • No draft of the Plan General de Desarrollo has been presented, according to the opposition lawmaker.
  • The city’s planning institute scheduled public consultations for November, which the government estimates will run for about two months.
  • Garza contends the continued delay leaves residents without a statutory planning tool and says the capital will remain without the plan through 2025.
