Río Grande municipal development and planning projects

Overview

In early July 2026, Río Grande launched several community initiatives, including the “Conociendo el Motor Productivo de la Ciudad” program, which provided guided tours of local firms like Vitalcan and Kotaix Coffee Roasters. Simultaneously, Special School No. 2 held a science fair titled “Conociendo a Río Grande” to use sensory activities to highlight city landmarks and accessibility barriers. Mayor Martín Pérez subsequently unveiled a high-tech Urban Monitoring Center funded with nearly 80 million pesos. The system, utilizing technology from AUSTER Ingeniería SRL, links over 70 surveillance stations to a video-wall and integrates with the municipal 147 citizen-service line and a WhatsApp chatbot to improve public safety and infrastructure upkeep. By late July, the municipality expanded its programming. A Primary Care Specialty Management workshop scheduled for 1 August featured specialists in psychiatry, otolaryngology, and urology. The Secretariat of Productive Development also conducted maritime navigation training. Additionally, the “Rondas para Construir Futuro Juntas” workshops continued to support women and gender-diverse participants through sessions on budgeting and income generation. To bolster employment, the municipality and Fundación Mirgor launched twelve vocational workshops covering trades such as electricity, appliance repair, and textile design. In August, the city advanced its Landscape and Territorial Planning Plan (PPyOT) through specialized workshops with academic and technical partners. Furthering its support for local industry, the municipality and UTN-TDF launched ‘Emprender desde el Sur’, a weekly radio and streaming program. On 27 August, the “Rondas para Construir Futuro Juntas” program concluded its two-month run. On 31 August, the City Council approved new community welfare initiatives. In early September, the city held its fifth annual Digital Hackathon at the Espacio Tecnológico. On 7 September, Mayor Martín Pérez presented seven new vehicles acquired through public bidding to improve municipal services.
