Tulum, Q.R. — The Annual Operating Plan (AOP) for fiscal year 2023 has been approved by the Tulum City Council. This year, the reserve of 242,1 million pesos will be allocated to 32 municipal projects by Mayor Marciano Dzul.

The City Council approved 32 projects related to water, electrification, school infrastructure, health, housing improvement, and urbanization at their Tuesday meeting.

Branch 33 Contribution Fund for Municipal Social Infrastructure and Branch 28 Territorial Demarcations of the Federal District, as well as own resources, will provide the necessary funding.

In addition, funds will be derived from environmental sanitation rights, the Contribution Fund for the Strengthening of Municipalities and Territorial Demarcations of the Federal District, and 5% of the users of the archaeological zone.

Dzul reported in a statement that the list of projects includes the rehabilitation of the access road to the Mayan zone, section Yaxché – Chanchen Palmar, as well as the electrification and lighting of the Macario Gómez, San Juan de Dios, Manuel Antonio Ay, and Francisco Uh May communities.

Additionally, the funds will be used to pave the streets of Sahcabmucuy, Chanchen I, and Cobá. In the latter, we will initiate the first phase of the Malecón Corridor of the Cobá lagoon, he said.

In the municipal capital, we will install sanitary drainage in the Huracanes neighborhood and pave the Veleta neighborhood and all reported streets, including Cobá Sur and Polar.

Due to our love and respect for nature, we will make a substantial investment in 2023 to clean up the open-air dump on the Tulum – Cobá highway, which will be in addition to the existing one, and we will also complete our Collection Center.

I also wish to inform you that we will not relax our vigilance in the face of crime! We will therefore commence construction of the security control arches at the municipal seat.

These projects are added to the Technological University of Tulum, which you helped me manage, and the Social Assistance Center (CAS), which is already in operation.

Dzul stated that the objective of Tulum’s POA 2023 is to ensure and sustain the municipality’s strategic, transformational, and orderly growth without increasing taxes.
