In October 2026, Elvia Estrada, a Green Party legislator in Mexico City, proposed an initiative to create a georeferenced registry for abandoned or deteriorating public sports facilities. The proposal aims to address insecurity and lack of maintenance in courts, parks, and outdoor gyms through a formal monitoring system and repair schedule.

By November 2026, municipal authorities in various regions reported active infrastructure projects. In León, Guanajuato, officials completed the 6.8 million peso rehabilitation of the Santa María del Granjeno mini-sports complex, which included new flooring, roofing, and recreational areas. However, the construction of the Parque Metropolitano Sur in León has reached only 13 percent completion due to land-use regulation issues. In Ciudad Madero, Tamaulipas, the local government launched a youth football league and announced ongoing efforts to rehabilitate sports fields in several neighborhoods.
