A big problem with the smell of government corruption hits national and foreign investment in Mazatlán Sinaloa, these are businesses dedicated to uncontrolled celebration events, called: “partiers” (“fiesteros” in spanish),
The “partiers” have made it unbearable to live in residential areas of the port, in areas of strong attraction of national and foreign tourist investment, due to the absence of the regulatory authority of the mayor’s office.
The annoyance is so strong that investors from the United States and Canada who have been living in or visiting Mazatlán for decades are willing to go at the request of their countries, such as the embassy of Ken Salazar (USA) and that of the Canadian Graeme C. Clark.
An example is the area located in Sábalo – Cerritos, where thousands of condominium residents, mainly national, North American and Canadian, have filed complaints about the excessive noise that exceeds up to 80 decibels, when the maximum limit is 55 decibels in the day and 50 at night.
The priority of uncontrolled celebration events, called “partiers”, is to obtain the maximum profit regardless of days or times, in the absence of the local authority of the mayor Edgar González Zatarain, of the Mayor’s Office in charge of Rogelio Olivas Osuna and from the director of Ecology and Environment, Eunice Murúa.
For example, in the “Las Maravillas” Trailer Park, located in Sábalo – Cerritos, between the Las Quintas del Mar and Costa Bonita subdivision, condo owners who filed complaints are one of the “partiers” who constantly violate environmental standards, human rights human rights and the tranquility of thousands of inhabitants of the area that includes dozens of subdivisions, condominiums and preserves..
The complaints in Civil Protection by the Coordinator, Eloy Ruiz Gastélum, although they are attended to, are useless due to the bureaucratic plot created as a delaying tactic between permits from the Chief Officer’s Office, which until now has restricted schedules, measurements of devices that do not work in the direction of Ecology and Environment, and Civil Protection itself.
However, the big problem is the uncontrollable emission of noise that warrants the intervention of the Sinaloa Tourism Secretariat led by Estrella Palacios Domínguez, a candidate for mayor of Mazatlán, since in desperation foreign investors will turn to the diplomatic corps.
It is a large residential area of kilometers along Sábalo – Cerritos avenue where land use is constantly violated in improvised areas for celebrations of all kinds, outdoors, without the minimum infrastructure to control noise emissions. and lights.
The profit of a few stories is above the well-being and rights of thousands of inhabitants.
In fact, in November the head of Tourism, Estrella Palacios, received Ambassador Graeme C. Clark in a meeting where the importance of Canada for Mazatlán, as the second most important country, was highlighted.
The “partiers” have all the space to sell without order or control by the authority events that cause violations of the norm by more than 80% of the permitted decibel limit, and at all types of times.
Article 392 of the Mobility Law of the state of Sinaloa establishes “stopping environmental pollution caused by noise.”
This is a problem that, in the absence of regulatory authority, tolerates all types of abuses, with suspicions of corruption and influence peddling.
The attitude of the authorities and the “partiers”, as aggressors of civil rights, constantly endanger the health of the neighbors and condominiums in this affected area, as well as tourism in Mazatlán, one of the most productive activities. of the port.
In the voice of the investors: “Apparently, a group of people have the business operation at the expense of flagrant violation of environmental regulations, and violation of the human rights of neighbors and condominiums.”
