**Tijuana’s Mayor Inaugurates Public Consultation Module in La Presa Abelardo L. Rodríguez**
Residents of La Presa Abelardo L. Rodríguez in Tijuana have a new avenue for public engagement, thanks to the inauguration of a Public Consultation Module by the city’s Mayor, Ismael Burgueño Ruiz. The initiative, part of a Delegational Day organized by Tijuana’s XXV City Council, aims to address community needs and introduce social programs.
Mayor Burgueño Ruiz emphasized the importance of teamwork in addressing pressing community issues such as road repairs and street paving. “We are committed to transforming Tijuana into one of the most well-lit cities in the country by installing functional streetlights and improving infrastructure,” he stated.
A significant aspect of this plan involves improving waste collection services, with new routes set to open in 2025. The initiative promises to extend waste collection services to all neighborhoods, ensuring no resident has to pay for it privately.
In addition to infrastructure improvements, the Mayor called upon the community to collaborate with the government to expedite Tijuana’s transformation. He reasserted the city’s commitment to uplifting the East Zone, one of the areas with the highest social need, by creating spaces that promote sports, arts, and culture.
Adriana Guadalupe Barrera, the Delegate of La Presa Abelardo L. Rodríguez, has been instrumental in executing the Mayor’s directive to prioritize fieldwork over desk duties. She announced that community needs in neighborhoods like Altiplano and Valle Verde are being actively addressed through various social programs.
The Delegational Day also saw the inauguration of the Public Consultation Module for the Municipal Development Plan 2025-2027, designed to empower residents to take part in decision-making processes concerning public affairs of interest. The event was attended by over 1,500 people. Services offered included medical check-ups, vaccinations, and distribution of essential goods, facilitated by both municipal and state governments.

In recent developments, Tijuana’s municipal government has been focusing on enhancing public services to better cater to its residents’ needs. One of the pivotal moves has been the introduction of the Tarjeta Violeta, a program aimed at supporting female heads of households. This initiative, recognized by Mayor Ismael Burgueño Ruiz, is part of broader efforts to increase support and resources in areas marked by social deficits.
Integral to these efforts is the expansion of waste collection routes, set to alleviate the financial burden on families currently paying for private waste removal. This change is expected to take effect in 2025 and aligns with the city’s aim to improve living conditions across all neighborhoods.
Moreover, Tijuana is prepared to face a new era in public security as the city recently approved its 2025 budget. The allocation promises enhanced resources toward community safety, paving the way for a more secure urban environment.
Local schools are also experiencing a direct intervention, with parents recently taking action due to a shortage of teachers. Authorities are actively working to resolve the issue, ensuring educational needs are met promptly.
These measures are complemented by collaborations with the state government, such as mobile medical units providing crucial health screenings, including mammograms and X-rays, reinforcing the holistic approach to community welfare in Tijuana.
