Gaby Montoya Los Cabos infrastructure and tourism challenges, Digi Mart USA News (Los Cabos, Baja California Sur): Gaby Montoya, an aspiring municipal coordinator for the Fourth Transformation defense work in Los Cabos, Baja California Sur, said in an interview with El Heraldo Televisión on the program Las Noticias con Héctor Jiménez Landín that the municipality faces significant challenges stemming from its rapid population growth and its importance as an international tourist destination.
The aspiring official stressed the need for efficient management that can raise residents’ quality of life and maintain the competitiveness of the tourism sector. She described Los Cabos as one of the country’s most important destinations, attracting people from various states who seek better job opportunities.
This constant flow of people has produced accelerated growth that requires immediate attention in urban planning and the provision of services. “It is a tourist municipality with many opportunities to keep growing and do great things, and with very accelerated growth because we are receiving a huge number of people every day who are looking for a dream of a better life and more job opportunities, and there is always a lot to do in the municipality of Los Cabos,” she said.
Montoya emphasized that the goal is to consolidate a destination that is sustainable, with both visitors and local residents guaranteed order and cleanliness. She said the work should focus on improving urban infrastructure so the municipality maintains its distinction and quality of service.
“To offer our visitors the guarantees of an orderly, clean destination, safety, where they can truly go to enjoy and relax,” she said.
One of the critical points raised during the conversation was the lack of drinking water, a problem that has worsened due to insufficient water infrastructure relative to population growth. Montoya said the solution cannot be isolated and requires joint efforts among different levels of government, the business sector and organized civil society.
“Today in Los Cabos we lack drinking water because the population is so large and growing so fast that we have fallen short in water infrastructure, so it is very important to work and look for alternatives,” Montoya said.
The aspiring official concluded that the key to the municipality’s development lies in building a solid administrative framework. According to Montoya, through specific objectives and close collaboration with productive and social sectors, it is possible to pursue the alternatives needed to address fundamental needs of the population more quickly.
