Marina del Pilar will reforest Baja California with 30,000 trees before the end of 2022

The Community Activation Center project was presented in Tecate which will create the biggest park in the history of this municipality as part of the “RESPIRA: Más Parques, Más Vida” program

With the goal of creating safer, more sustainable, and cleaner spaces, the Marina del Pilar administration announced that they will plant 30,000 trees in the city of Tecate throughout what’s left of 2022, being the most important project of Baja California in the last few years. This Tuesday, the Community Activation Center Urban Park project was presented in the city of Tecate which is part of the “Respira: Más Parques, Más Vida” program.

“Personally, I am convinced of the importance of green areas and the regeneration of our public spaces as a way to bring wellbeing to Baja Californian families, for our children and young people. We want greener areas, more sport courts and fields, more bicycle lanes. We want to promote peace and welfare,” she said while highlighting the importance of the collaboration of municipal authorities, business leaders, and citizens to develop actions in order to improve everyone’s general wellbeing.

In front of officials from the three levels of government, as well as representatives of civil society and Tecate’s business sector, Marina del Pilar explained that the first part of the project consists of installing children playgrounds so that children have places to have fun outside so that they don’t spend their time staring at screens. It is also expected that pedestrian, runner, and cyclist walkways are installed. In the second phase of this program, Adolfo López Mateos park will be restored and will be interconnected with green areas creating the biggest lineal park in the history of this municipality.

The state governor underscored that Baja Californians have a right to have areas where they can fully develop, which is why green areas are so necessary. This is already being complemented by the RESPIRA program, a state administration strategic project whose goal is to transform public roads, transportation, and the environment in order to develop present and future generations.

“In order to project the magic of Tecate, we need to multiply the public spaces and green areas we share. We need to work united, society and government, in a model that combines urban development, the environment, and public areas. The city is our home and everyone likes to have a clean house, in order, where harmony reigns, and we feel at peace. In Tecate we are still able to boost a transformation toward a friendlier city model. A city that breathes and lets us breathe,” the state governor said.

In addition, Ávila Olmeda added that during her six-year term, public spaces in Tecate will be multiplied. Green areas will be created and recovered in order to favor family integration through artistic and cultural activities, as well as sports in proper areas. This is why, the development of the Community Activation Center Urban Park plays an essential role since it contemplates different social, economic, recreational, sports, and cultural perspectives to benefit all Tecate natives.

At this event the following people were present: Carlos Torres Torres, Regeneration Programs of Public Areas Coordinator; Joel Alfonso Villalobos Gutiérrez, Secretary of Tecate’s Economic Development Council; Carmen Rodríguez, Head of the Women Committee “Lluvias del Surf”; Arturo Espinoza Jaramillo, Head of the Secretariat of Infrastructure, Urban Development, and Territory Redesign (SIDURT) of Baja California, and Mónica Juliana Vega Aguirre, Secretary of the Environment and Sustainable Development of Baja California.
