**Tijuana Mayor Reviews Past Administration’s Finances**
The current mayor of Tijuana, Ismael Burgueño Ruiz, has embarked on a comprehensive review of the city’s financial condition following the transition from the previous administration. Mayor Burgueño emphasized that he is not to be held accountable for any financial mismanagement that may have occurred before his term. With a 45-day window allotted for this task, the mayor aims to identify any irregularities and report them to the appropriate authorities.
Mayor Burgueño underscored that this review period is crucial for fully understanding what has been accomplished, what projects remain incomplete, and which initiatives are viable moving forward. He stressed the importance of transparency and accountability, particularly in response to alleged misconduct in the renovation of the Tijuana Beachfront Promenade. The mayor stated that the project was irresponsibly managed and began without full planning, thus leading to irregularities that will be addressed and rectified.
In addition, Mayor Burgueño recently attended a charity golf tournament supporting breast cancer awareness and education. This event illustrates his commitment to community involvement beyond municipal governance.
**Additional Developments in Tijuana:**
Tijuana’s municipal administration is making strides to improve its local governance structure by installing Sindicatura offices across its nine delegations. This initiative is expected to streamline oversight and ensure better accountability in various municipal activities.
In another development, the local government continues its legal battle over the controversial property tax imposed on the city’s airport. This contentious issue remains unresolved, with significant financial implications for the city’s budget.
Meanwhile, the municipal government remains responsive to its sanitation workers, addressing concerns and demands for improved working conditions. This includes attending to over 270 retired and disabled police officers who are advocating for salary standardization.
Furthermore, private waste collectors have recently protested due to the suspension of their permits, prompting temporary roadblocks as they seek to have their concerns voiced and addressed.
As the city continues to address internal governance and community issues, Mayor Burgueño has also reaffirmed Tijuana’s regulations regarding the use of tinted vehicle windows. This law, passed a year ago, remains active, but its enforcement awaits official publication in the governmental gazette.
