The memorandum of understanding, signed at a ceremony featuring political and business leaders from both sides of the border at the San Diego Central Library, lays out a shared vision of issues that the two mayors agreed to pursue, including water and other infrastructure, border crossings, emergency services and economic development.
"There is so much we can achieve when our two cities collaborate and unite," San Diego mayor Kevin Faulconer said. He began by addressing the crowd in Spanish – a skill he touted during his campaign. He continued his statement in English.
Tijuana Mayor Jorge Astiazarán responded by calling Faulconer and San Diego key partners. He called the agreement "more than a document," but rather a "memorandum of mutual friendship."
The mayors plan to meet twice in 2015 to address policy challenges and goals. The first meeting will be in January.
