The Quintana Roo government is taking steps to legalize over 100 hectares of unlawfully occupied lands in the southern region of the state. Governor Mara Lezama announced that her administration is working to legitimize approximately 70 hectares in Tulum and an additional 40 in Mahahual. Once this process is complete, property titles will be issued to the residents.
The Agency of Strategic Projects (Agepro) has already registered over 700 cases in Tulum alone. "In order to promote orderly growth, we're focusing on land legalization," stated Governor Lezama.
In Mahahual, Agepro has also been playing a key role in mediating between the current occupants and the private landowners. They have been instrumental in facilitating the signing of purchase contracts, ensuring a transparent and orderly process.
From the onset of her administration, Lezama has emphasized the importance of orderly and sustainable community growth. Her goal is to rectify a historical debt and guarantee that every family has access to efficient public services.
Lezama further explained that once the land is legalized, residents will have safe and legal access to essential utilities such as electricity, potable water, and drainage services.
