Tlalnepantla implements land title fee waivers and environmental programs

The municipality of Tlalnepantla, State of Mexico, has become the only municipality in the region to waive 100 percent of deed registration costs. Mayor Raciel Pérez Cruz and Víctor Guzmán Dagnino, director general of the National Institute for Sustainable Land (INSUS), formalized the donation of municipal plots to benefit neighborhoods including San Bartolo Tenayuca, San Juan Ixhuatepec, and Santa María Ticomán.

This initiative aims to regularize approximately 4,500 files, providing legal certainty to families who have lacked official documentation for decades. Officials noted that over 60 percent of deeds currently in process are being issued in the names of women to strengthen patrimonial autonomy.

Additionally, the local government launched the “Sello Verde 2026: 100 Líderes que Dejan Huella” program to recognize contributions to environmental protection and animal welfare. Recent achievements include the planting of 55,000 trees across 35 parks and natural areas, such as the Sierra de Guadalupe, and the performance of over 5,000 free sterilization surgeries to manage the local animal population.
