Mayor Wants Uniformity in Palapas

To project a look of uniformity the Municipal Planning Institute has gotten involved the reconstruction of palapas located from Avenida del Mar up to Cerritos.

At a meeting with owners of the city’s palapas on Saturday the mayor said he would like to see a model of a standard palapa proposed by the Mazatlán Union of Palapa Owners within the next 15 days. Until that time the city will not approve construction plans.

Enriqueta Manjarrez Salazar, president of the union, said “We told the mayor that we will support the plan and see if is feasible, we want to work and we are not going to disappear.”

The union president said six palapas were totally destroyed and most of the others sustained varying degrees of damage. The average cost to make the needed repairs is 100,000 pesos ($7,700). Money the owners do not have.
