The governor of Jalisco, Pablo Lemus, emphasized that the new director must act swiftly to address the organization's challenges and strengthen coordination with municipalities. He also announced that a reorganization of SIAPA will be pursued to improve its performance and respond more effectively to current demands. It is also expected that these efforts will contribute to enhancing the service quality for users.
Coordination between agencies According to official information, this reallocation was achieved through a joint effort involving the General Coordination of Territorial Management, the Ministry of Comprehensive Water Management (SGIA), the CEA, and the new SIAPA administration. This coordination established an action plan based on previous diagnoses and the system's operational needs.
Working groups and next steps Following approval, working groups will be established, bringing together specialists and representatives from the academic sector. Their goal is to define specific actions to implement based on budgetary adjustments. These actions are part of the SIAPA director's work plan, focusing on addressing the system's operations in the short, medium, and long term.
Recent movements at SIAPA It is worth recalling that Jáuregui Castañeda's appointment took place in the last few hours. The State Government announced the approval of the modification to the 2026 Public Investment Budget Program, reallocating a fund exceeding one billion pesos in favor of the Intermunicipal System of Potable Water and Sewerage Services (SIAPA). This is a budgetary resource redistribution primarily aimed at improving water quality initiatives. This adjustment seeks to strengthen the organization's operations and address priority needs in service supply.
Hydraulic works and distribution improvements According to the State Government, the funds will be channeled into hydraulic works in the south of the Guadalajara Metropolitan Area (AMG), as well as into emergency projects focused on improving the water distribution system. These works will also be oriented toward optimizing existing infrastructure and addressing failures detected in various parts of the city.
