“Valora tu Espacio” Program: Bringing Services to the Community

The mayor ⁢of Guadalupe ⁢also reported an increase of nearly 8 percent in revenue collection for January compared ‌to the same month of the previous year.

Key Aspects of the “Valora tu Espacio” Program

• The “Valora tu ⁣Espacio” program, ‍which takes municipal services‍ to various neighborhoods and ​communities every Wednesday, has been crucial in improving revenue collection⁣ and making ⁣services more accessible to citizens.
• Visited locations‌ include La Florida,El dorado,and Campo Bravo,with a planned visit to Tacoaleche this ‍Tuesday.

this⁢ strategy addresses ​the ​needs of individuals ‍who cannot easily ‌visit ​the municipal offices, facilitating ​their ability to pay property taxes and complete ​other necessary procedures. Saldívar emphasized that property tax should be viewed as an ⁣investment, enabling projects such as the baseball park lighting rehabilitation, road paving on Casa⁢ Blanca⁢ and San Jerónimo, and upcoming work in Viboritas starting in April.

Saldívar elaborated that the program has served approximately one thousand​ people,with property tax payments being one of the most ⁤requested services.​ Many families have expressed difficulty in visiting the municipal offices due​ to daily ⁤responsibilities, making this initiative a valuable resource.⁢ Additional​ support includes free birth ⁣certificate issuance, with ‌all‍ services provided‍ at no cost to ⁤the ⁢public.

Addressing Public Transportation concerns

Regarding ⁤complaints about ​public transportation⁣ delays,⁣ Saldívar stated that the⁣ municipality has implemented a digital strategy ⁢to ⁤address citizen reports via ‍social ⁤media, particularly Facebook. He noted that ‌96 percent ⁢of Guadalupe’s population ​has smartphones and internet access,⁣ enabling quicker responses to requests through the municipality’s ⁣Public Services page.

Focus on Crime Prevention and Community development

The mayor also mentioned the recent visit by Dr. Franz Vanderschueren, who discussed local crime prevention ⁤and the importance ‍of strengthening families. The rehabilitation and construction of‍ sports facilities, ⁤such as ​the soccer field ​in ⁢Santa Mónica and the unit‌ in Tacoaleche, are part of these efforts. Saldívar ‍affirmed that Guadalupe is making progress‌ in prevention⁢ and that its work, in coordination with the state government, ⁢has received national recognition.

The Future of Baseball Field⁣ Lighting

The⁤ move to upgrade to modern baseball field lighting is a strategic one. ​As one expert notes, “SP01 ⁤is a professional ⁢stadium lighting,​ powerful LED technology designed for⁣ high light output.” LED ‍lights are highly energy-efficient, consuming up to⁤ 75% less energy than traditional lighting fixtures such ⁣as metal halide (MH) and high-pressure ⁣sodium (HPS) lights. ⁢ This not only reduces energy ‍costs but also provides better lighting for players ⁤and spectators alike.

For those considering similar upgrades,‌ it’s worth noting that If yoru‍ baseball field already has an existing⁣ conventional lighting system installed and ​you are looking to upgrade your sports lighting system to LED,‍ you can ‍expect it ​cost somewhere‍ in the region of $70,000 – ‌$320,000.
