**Tijuana’s Commitment to Citizen Well-being Takes Center Stage**
In a recent assembly, Tijuana’s Municipal President Ismael Burgueño Ruiz emphasized that the welfare of Tijuana residents remains a top priority for his administration. Known for its humanistic and community-centric approach, the current government is committed to fostering a safer, more vibrant city.
During the “Miércoles de Mañanera” event hosted by Baja California’s Governor Marina del Pilar Ávila Olmeda at Parque Esperanto, Mayor Burgueño Ruiz praised the state government’s proactive and transparent approach in supporting initiatives that benefit the region’s citizens. This collaborative effort is crucial in ensuring a secure and prosperous Tijuana.
Mayor Burgueño highlighted the administration’s dedication to increasing public safety and reducing crime through initiatives that reclaim and renovate public spaces. Programs aimed at encouraging sports, arts, and culture are being rolled out to enhance the overall quality of life for locals, alongside improving the perception of safety within the community.
In an effort to address these issues comprehensively, the administration has also launched environmental improvement initiatives, including community clean-up campaigns and the establishment of new waste collection routes, such as the one newly opened in the El Laurel neighborhood. Additionally, preventive training programs and the “Mujer Segura” initiative are underway to further promote safety.
A key project under the administration is the Rehabilitation Program for Tijuana’s Historic Center. Supported by project director Carlos Torres Torres and the local business community, this initiative aims to revamp Tijuana’s image, attract tourists, and boost economic growth.
Throughout October, government officials conducted inspections on 153 establishments, resulting in 45 closures due to illegal activities. The Mayor outlined future plans from the XXV City Council, including the restoration of 100 parks, mural projects, financial grants for athletes, strategic police patrol models, and the creation of recreational spaces for children.
Governor Marina del Pilar Ávila Olmeda welcomed the Mayor to the restored Parque Esperanto, which had previously been neglected. This transformation is part of broader efforts to use public space recovery as a crime prevention strategy, highlighting the multifaceted approach needed to address crime.
In her address, the Governor expressed gratitude for Mayor Burgueño’s cooperation, stating, “Thank you for your exceptional teamwork; together, we can enhance Tijuana’s public policies.”
