Tunja oversight group demands waste tariff restructuring
A citizen oversight group in Tunja has denounced the local government for failing to restructure waste management tariffs in accordance with national regulations. Spokesperson Yeny Moreno criticized the administration's inaction following the issuance of CRA Resolution 1040 of 2026.
The oversight group argues that the current model remains outdated, focusing on waste burial rather than transitioning toward a circular economy and source separation. This lack of regulation is reportedly overloading the local landfill and preventing over 88,000 users from accessing tariff incentives, leading to disproportionate costs for citizens.
The group has demanded that the mayor's office urgently convene operating companies to coordinate this transition and implement educational campaigns for waste separation in neighborhoods. They have warned of escalating the matter to control agencies if the administration fails to act.
