Claudia Vega is a new AMPI member!
Claudia Vega, Shaun Klynstra'a wife and partner in Solutions Mazatlan, took the oath and became our latest member of AMPI! She joins team members Shaun Klynstra and Lourdes Brito, who were already members. Liz Blancarte and Gonzalo Moreno will soon be joining the ranks as well. What is AMPI you ask? Take a look here!
Currently, the Real Estate Licensing Legislation has been passed and is in effect in 14 states around Mexico. We expect that Sinaloa will soon have their legislation passed and in effect.

CODESIN Presentation
Fernando Valdez, the president of CODESIN in the southern part of Sinaloa, gave a very intersting presentation at the AMPI meeting.
CODESIN stands for "The Board of Economic Development of Sinaloa" and is composed of both private, public and government sectors.
Fernando shared with us an overview and the past, present and future economic panorama for Mazatlan and the south part of Sinaloa.
I can assure that while there are some unbelievable examples of poor administration of projects, resources, and opportunities, there are also some amazing areas of opportunity that CODESIN is working to plan and bring to fruition.
Some of the most important economic development projects for Southern Sinaloa that have been approved and are either near completion, being developed or are in planning include:
Port expansion
Natural gas pipeline completion
Completion of the road connecting the airport with the north - northeast area of the city (Nuevo Mazatlan, Cerritos, Marina Mazatlan and the northeast area of growth)
Completion and operation of 2 important reservoirs (to deliver water to the South of Sinaloa
Grand opening of Playa Espiritu - FONATUR project with inauguration
of 1st hotel
Upgrading of the water and sewage system in southern Mazatlan (Centro area)
Revised legislation to promote transportation and logistics
And so on.
It was actually quite exciting to see what's on the horizon for Sinaloa and Mazatlan.
