Urban management issues in Miguel Hidalgo

Overview

In the Miguel Hidalgo borough of Mexico City, Mayor Mauricio Tabe has initiated efforts to address urban management and infrastructure issues.

In late September, the mayor formed a coalition with National Action Party (PAN) legislators to combat irregular urban construction. This group aims to monitor judicial decisions from the Administrative Justice Tribunal (TJA) that have reportedly led to the removal of closure seals on illegal establishments. The coalition seeks to investigate whether these rulings favor private interests over land-use regulations, particularly in areas like Bosques de las Lomas.

By mid-October, the administration’s focus expanded to include the regulation of telecommunications cabling. Citing safety risks and urban decay, Tabe reported that an estimated 25% to 30% of local cabling is no longer operational. Following an incident where a garbage truck became entangled in hanging lines, the borough requested an extraordinary budget for civil protection risk assessments and threatened to withhold public space authorizations from companies that fail to clean up obsolete cables.
