Mayor Francisco Azcué led an expanded Cabinet meeting in which he presented the Infrastructure and Development Plan towards the Bicentennial to the government team, a roadmap aimed at consolidating an orderly, modern, efficient, innovative, and productive Concordia.
The initiative seeks to deepen the joint work being carried out with institutions and the private sector, with the objective of boosting the city's growth and development.
“This is possible thanks to the fact that in these two years we managed to organize the financial state of the Municipality. The context was not easy, but today we are projecting an investment in public works with our own funds that is historic for Concordia,” remarked the Mayor.
In that sense, Azcué maintained that “this long-term plan is the continuity of what we began to deepen in 2025, when we made an investment in public works exceeding 1.5 billion pesos. In 2026, we will advance with an ambitious program that includes pavement, curbs, storm drains, sewers, and drinking water networks, among other public policies. We are going to allocate 20% of the budget to public works, with the goal of reaching 35% next year.”
Production and industrial development will also occupy a central role within the planning. “Preliminary reports from the technical, environmental, regulatory, and economic feasibility study indicate that the results will be favorable for accessing credit destined for the development of the logistics activities zone and the barge port. This will allow for the generation of more employment, accompanied by an important tax reform that we have already initiated and that we are going to deepen to promote investment and the growth of companies,” he explained.
Likewise, the mayor highlighted the importance of human development as the axis of the plan. “Our horizon is for every resident of Concordia to be the protagonist of their own life project. That is why we will continue with the programs we have been working on together with the Province, the Nation, and the Social Observatory, leaving behind the model of welfare dependency that caused us so much harm,” he affirmed.
Finally, Azcué underscored the strategic and long-term nature of the initiative. “This plan is designed for the residents of Concordia of today and for those of the future. It transcends generations and political parties. We hope that when Concordia celebrates 200 years since its founding, it finds us in growth and in full development,” he concluded.
