The City Council does not have territorial reserves to donate a property in the urban area of the city to build a new Hospital of the Mexican Social Security Institute in Mazatlán, said Mayor Édgar González Zataráin.
“I told them, I’m not entertaining them, I told them from the beginning: we don’t have reserves and the reserves that could be in any case are outside the city, they are not interested in outside the city, on the shores, they are It is more interesting that it is within the urban area, impossible 5 hectares within the urban area”, added González Zataráin in an interview.
“Yes there is, but they are going to sell them to you at the price of gold, obviously it is something that the Municipality cannot provide.”
He stressed that as a Municipality health is very interested, but in the case of the IMSS it is a federal institution and the Commune does not have to bear the issues of other institutions.
“Let’s see, it’s a federal institution, we don’t have to burden ourselves with the issue of other institutions, it’s as if they told me if there isn’t a piece of land for ISSSTE it can’t grow, well imagine if we started giving land to each institution, we would like to do it, why not, if we had them we would not deny them,” he reiterated.
“The issue is that we must speak clearly, if they are seeing how we are against the wall with so many demands, with land rents that we do not have, then where are we going to give them, we would like to give them, yes we would be interested in establishing it, We have a great interest in Social Security coming, but I also want to tell you that there is nothing true, there is a talk on the subject that there could be an investment (for a new IMSS Hospital in Mazatlán), there is nothing like that budgeted, executed for Mazatlán”.
The president of the Employers’ Confederation of the Mexican Republic, Fernando Valdez Solano, has publicly stated that if the 5-hectare piece of land is not obtained, there is a risk that the resources for the construction of a new IMSS Hospital in Mazatlán will go to other cities.
“They even told me when they had the talk: if we have the land we could be there next year, that is, next year we will be in a position to establish a construction, not this year, so we have to keep looking for options, they tell me no We have options, we already gave them many, but they are all private, they say buy them yourself, not how”, reiterated the Municipal President.
“Fernando is well-intentioned and he looks for him, but we cannot follow an agenda to their liking, for example, the preferential lane because they did not put a single weight, the Alliance (of Urban Trucks) had to put him there, we put labor, but to say that this is missing, the other is missing because we all know what we need”.
