Secretariat for Integrated Water Management
The creation of this secretariat arose from the need to address the effects of climate change, the expected increase in demand for water by people who commute to work in Mexico City, and the search for a balance between extraction and recharge of the aquifer.
“They demand the implementation of actions, works and benefits that can no longer be achieved under a Water System that does not have all the powers to face the great challenge that the city faces today in terms of water,” the initiative states.
It will be your responsibility to:
- The provision of public services for drinking water, drainage and sewerage, and the treatment and management of water in the city.
- Propose to the Head of Government the Water Policy and the Comprehensive Water Program of Mexico City, as well as regulations on water in the city and the municipalities.
- Establish water reserves.
- Coordinate, formulate and operate drinking water supply works programs.
Ministry of Housing
“Joint actions are required, through a single, specialized department, which concentrates all the powers that are currently diversified and which helps the Government Headquarters to combat the general housing gap in Mexico City,” justifies the initiative for the creation of the Housing Secretariat.
