Infrastructure, mobility and quality of life improvement projects were presented
Students present their projects at the Lake Chapala Society.
Sofía Medeles (Ajijic, Jal.)– Architecture students from the Tecnológico de Monterrey (TEC) presented their vision of Ajijic in 2016, 15 years from now. Taking into account Ajjic’s designation as a Magical Town, the projects suggest ways to improve the quality of life. The twelve projects presented included rainwater treatment systems, a truck station, a geriatric medical center, an integral transportation plan, a botanical garden, and a recreational center for the elderly.
Professor Luis Márquez, who is in charge of the projects, and the academic representative on the Publico Magico Committee, León Felipe Muñoz, commented that these conceptual visions and urban master plans are based on research in the community.
The president of the committee, Alejandro Sahagun, expressed his hope that the vision will reach more people, and that this academic exercise will serve as a base to consider fundamental community issues such as education, culture and the quality of life, as well as establishing a plan for members of the committee to pursue.
