In addition, there will be pesos discount coupon for use in major stores such as cinemas, auto insurance, laboratories, restaurants, Italian food, pizza, burgers and more.

He noted that in the 2012, "a total of 178,821 citizens participated during the month of January while exchanging their plates and each donated 62 pesos ($4.80 US) to the institution, in order to continue the free emergency ambulance service".

Velazco Samperio again trusts the citizenship, since last year the delegation of Tijuana received 4,437,091 pesos ($350,000 US) however, operational costs for the well-deserving institution amount to 5 million pesos ($394,000 US) per month. http://www.oem.com.mx/elsoldetijuana/notas/n2883491.htm

Fewer payments made for water service (El Sol de Tijuana, 2/18/13 by Rocio Galvan)

Tijuana, BC - Citizens should not remain delinquent in the payment of their water bills just because the company's policy is to wait three months before charging a late fee, while others like the gas, light or phone companies give only one month, acknowledged the Director of the Tijuana State Commission of Public Services, Hernando Durán.

http://www.sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2013/feb/18/40317/

He indicated that the majority of people give priority to other payments, because they consider water the last obligation and this increases the unpaid amounts, although at the present time payments are at 92%.

The current unpaid invoices for the year amount to two million pesos ($158,000 US) of an approximate 100 million ($7.9 million US). In total, 100,000 water customers are counted as late, however it could be 24%, but it is only 10% of the debtors who are the most delayed.

There is awareness of the crisis and the needs of the population, but among the debtors, most are: businesses, schools and of course citizens, he said. http://www.oem.com.mx/elsoldetijuana/notas/n2883484.htm
