National District Mayor David Collado says works are advancing for the capital city to have its Land Use Plan prepared by the National District Municipal Government (ADN) with the backing of the US Embassy, the Bloomberg Foundation and the United Nations Development Plan.
The plan is prepared by the professionals at the AND Urban Planning Department under architects Amín Abel Santos, Jesús D’Alessandro, and advisor architect Juan Mubarak. He is confident the plan will be the beginning of the end to problems that have affected the city over the past 30 years.
In an interview with the Grupo Corripio, he explained the plan has been harmonized with 280 organizations, including neighborhood groups, professional unions, and other stakeholders. He said it would be presented to the city government’s Board of Councilors in December 2018. He announced it would be accompanied by a city strategic plan prepared by a team of architects under Jesus D’Alessandro.
He said the plan would encourage vertical growth in areas where there is already infrastructure, such as in the Ensanche La Fe and the Malecón.
