The new head of the Tax Administration Service (SAT) in Puerto Vallarta says that an indicator of the current economic crisis is the drop in revenue compared to 2012

Starting on October 16, Carlos Gómez Velasco Lepe relieved Ana Gabriela at the head of the local Taxpayer Assistance Administration of the SAT in this city. In an interview she said that she seeks to put her stamp on the known quality and excellent attention to local taxpayers.

She says that the economic crisis has affected the collection and that she expects the compliance with the obligations of taxpayers to rebound.

After several years of experience here, under what circumstances is your appointment given?

As part of the strategies that the SAT has within the institution, there is the periodical rotation of taxpayer assistance administrators. It was time to change Ana Gabriela Lepe, who is now responsible for the local administration of taxpayer services of southern Guadalajara.

At this juncture I solicited the central authorities for the opportunity to consider me for the leadership of the administration, which happened since October 16.

What strategies do you have planned?

As part of the strategies that we want to implement with the community of Vallarta is to continue with the path already established by my predecessor but with my own label in order to approach all the sectors of the city, including associations, chambers, schools and taxpayers in general; to have a closeness with them, that is the message given to us by the head of the SAT, to improve services and be very close, he wants the manager to be in the taxpayer's service.

What has been your experience, when and how did you start in the SAT?

I'm originally from Guadalajara, studied Business Administration, started in the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit in a general office of Finance as they called it before, as an administrative assistant.
As part of the path that I have, nearly 27 years of service to the institution back me up, in Puerto Vallarta I have 14 years as a Local Deputy Administrator, I was in the area of Revenue, and due to a change in the internal regulations it went into the taxpayer services administration and five years ago I was a deputy administrator. In this regard I will continue seeking to improve the quality of the service that we give to the taxpayer and in the collection we will be making sure that taxpayers meet their obligations.

How do you expect the taxpayers to look at you in front of the SAT?

We want taxpayers to feel properly treated, I want to print my own stamp on the quality of care, that the taxpayer knows who is giving him service and that he fully identifies with us, that he knows that the head of the instance itself is on the lookout for the quality in their attention.

The system asks us to be certified as tax officials, which I managed to do a year ago, I performed knowledge and reliability tests as well as an examination before a Synod, this way I got in October 2012 the certification in the career as a fiscal officer.

IMPORTANT AND SIGNIFICANT CHALLENGES

What expectations did you have when getting this position?

For me it is a pleasure to have achieved this position, it is a very cherished dream I've had for many years, I looked for the opportunity to be a local Collection administrator five years ago but at that time there were several candidates around the country and I was not chosen, but I continued making merits, I kept working hard in the institution, and now that the opportunity returned I asked to be considered and after a series of tests I was chosen.

In this case, external managers who analyze the trajectory within the institution, request our curriculum, they observe and judge us and decide who can be the most suitable, consequently I am very grateful to the institution for being the one designated.

What are your objectives by taking this position?

Among my objectives there is to remain as I am in my behavior. I have received many compliments from people who know me, they have told me that it is fair that this appointment was given to me, I have received a lot of evidence of acceptance and recognition of those who know I'm taking the leadership. Professionally, my goal is to work hard to achieve the objectives that the institution has outlined for us through the SAT, they are important and significant challenges, which require all the time and ability to push through every day situations.

How is the team integrated?

Currently the personnel of taxpayer services of this city is made up of 21 people in two basic areas. One part is the taxpayer service orientation and paperwork reception it is the under management of Guidance, Procedures and Services; the other is the area of Compliance under management, which is responsible for monitoring the proper filing of tax returns of taxpayers, generating the corresponding actions when a taxpayer should be held accountable on its obligations.

What place does the local government of Puerto Vallarta have among the other managements of the country?

At this time it ranks 57 out of 67 administrations in the country, an issue that has affected us is the compliance and collection. It is known that Puerto Vallarta is in a state of economic recession that has affected many sectors, for various reasons the tourism sector has been affected by this and therefore we don't have the income from collection that we've had in other years.

There is another parameter which measures our taxpayer service, these are the indicators that we are determined to keep in a good position, we can achieve them by giving a very good service to the taxpayer.
One of the factors in which we are measured is the conclusiveness, ie that whoever comes here can get everything he needs to comply with the procedure that he is doing, then the taxpayer by having everything conclusively and globally, he will have all the elements to meet his tax obligations, and if he requires it, there are workshops, personalized advice and follow up to this process. Our challenge is to go up in the national position by looking for mechanisms that allow it.

COLLECTION GOING DOWN

How much has revenue fallen in Puerto Vallarta?

I don't have a specific figure, I can only say that we had a lower revenue than in previous years. This occurs due to specific and particular situations of some taxpayers; for example last year taxpayers were detected that in February, March and April paid taxes for higher and extraordinary figures in 2012, and this year didn't. When that extraordinary payment occurs, the collection rises, and they being sporadic acts, may not repeat in the following year, and that could make us have a disadvantage.

So we are struggling a bit in the collection because a specific situation of this group of taxpayers was not given and now we're trying to raise that revenue, which has to be through a means in which all taxpayers meet their obligations.

How can these indicators be improved?

They are two very different indicators, but the combination of all indicators helps us to position ourselves in a certain place. In the case of Puerto Vallarta we will be looking to collect from taxpayers who are in a state of default, to add that part to the taxpayer assistance we will continue to work.

Another indicator that we are measured in, is voluntary compliance and whether a taxpayer sector does not, this affects us in our nationwide position.

What will be done in this regard?

We want to know the status of the most significant contributors in tax collection. They are classified according to the contribution they make to the payment of their taxes, whether these are major contributors, main, certified, of the government sector, intermediate and C sector, that without being small taxpayers which are from the state government jurisdiction, are under federal jurisdiction such as landlords, professionals and intermediate regime.

What is your message to local taxpayers?

That they can count on us. In the SAT we are there to serve, the assistance is personalized, professional, highly available and free. We want to help the people with quality and warmth to comply with their tax obligations.

The labor benefits of the workers in the municipal government, under the State Pension Institute of Jalisco (IPEJAL), will be payed thanks to an agreement reached between the City and the State agency, as reported by the mayor Ramón Guerrero Martínez, who said that with the payment of the contribution for the month of October, these benefits will be released for public servants in Puerto Vallarta.

"We have already made this agreement last week, even the Treasurer was with the people in charge of Pensions, agreeing to the details, it is already resolved. The agreement with the State Pension is that we will start releasing all the worker benefits with the October payment", said the mayor.

He explained that the issue of pensions has been worked in two aspects, in the first one, in recovering the rights of the municipal employees under the agency without giving a definitive resolution for the full payment of debt, which has already been achieved, and the second, the proposal for payment in the building of the Municipal Administrative Unit (MAU), which does not affects workers, will be analyzed by the Directorate Council of IPEJAL in late November according to what was informed by the chairman, Francisco Ayón López.

The mayor was emphatic in stating that since the beginning of his administration the way to fix this situation inherited by the previous municipal government has been sought, for which there have been proposals with the sole interest of resolving this issue.

"The proposal has been ours since the beginning, about the scheme of lieu of payment. The State Pension Institute and the council already knew it. I made an appearance in which I explained the need for the municipality, in which we accept the debt and we also accept that we want to pay, and we gave the alternatives for the consideration of the council, and one alternative is to give the Administrative Unit in lieu of payment and thus be able to resolve the underlying issue".

The legal routes around the sentence against lighting works are being analyzed

The mayor, Ramón Guerrero Martínez, announced that through the Legal Department of the City, the legal paths to address the sentence of suspension against the bidding process for the renewal of street lighting service in the city are being analyzed.

He said that he will provide all the necessary information about the process and the different points will be cleared before the appropriate forum, meanwhile the Citelum company, which was the winner of the bid, will continue with the works that are being done since a few months ago.

The mayor announced the administrative suspension and the renovation of the plenary is required, which is already requested by the attorney and nine councilors 

Although the mayor, Ramón Guerrero Martínez, announced the suspension of the implementation of the Social Security Trust, this only represents the interruption of the administrative implementation of this payment scheme for municipal employees, when the next step is the revocation the plenary City Council, and the extinction of the controversial trust.

So explained the Councilman Miguel Ángel Yerena Ruiz from the PRD, moments before the councilors Susana Mendoza Carreño, Humberto Gómez Arévalo and Adrián Méndez González from the PRI, delivered to the general secretary the agreement initiative for the revocation and termination of the trust, document which was endorsed by the attorney and nine members of the five fractions MC-PT, PRI, PAN, PRD and Verde.

Yerena Ruiz emphasized that the mayor's decision to suspend the administrative execution of this trust was due to the pressure from the rank and file to not accept being paid through this means by carrying out two work suspensions this week, "it was an achievement of the workers, that is indisputable".

"It was the union that maintained a strong defense of its rights, above the pressures and even above its leader, it is the union base that can be credited for the reversal", said the mayor of the PRD.

He acknowledged that the mayor has finally accepted that this union base rejected this questionable system of covering their payroll, by insisting that this manifest will of Guerrero Martínez should be given legal formality in the plenary of the City Council at a meeting which revokes and extinguishes the controversial trust, as requested by ten out of 17 members of the City Council.

LEGAL PROCEDURE EXPECTED

For his part, the ruler of the PRI, Adrian Méndez González, explained that while he is pleased that the mayor has announced that the implementation of this payment scheme was suspended, he trusts that this resolution will be carried out equally and a legal procedure is made to get back to the previous payment system, which should be made after a forthcoming plenary meeting, giving due consideration to the agreement point initiative that was delivered Thursday afternoon in the general Ministry.

The proposal will thus be delivered so that this initiative is scheduled at the next regular meeting in the section of reading, discussion and possible approval to revoke and extinguish the so-called trust of management and investment, as well as instruct the technical committee of the Trust to send to the trustee institution -Banamex and instruct the Treasury and the Administrative Office to make modifications to the budget of expenses to return to the payment system prior to the authorization of the trust.

This initiative was endorsed by the municipal attorney, Roberto Ascencio Castillo, Susana Mendoza Carreño, Humberto Gómez Arévalo, Otoniel Barragán Espinoza, Adrián Méndez González, Humberto Muñoz Vargas, Jesús Anaya Vizcaíno and Agustín Álvarez Valdivia, and although not signed by her name, it is also supported by Jessica Guerra Yerena.

The Riviera Nayarit’s top-notch hotel infrastructure attracted the Conference on the Humanitarian Impact of Nuclear Weapons with 700 participants from around the world.

Personnel from the United Nations arrived at the Riviera Nayarit to perform a site inspection in order to assess the destination as the location for the Conference on the Humanitarian Impact of Nuclear Weapons, set to take place February 13-16, 2014. The Riviera Nayarit was duly approved to host this important international event.

On October 21st of this year, a group from Mexico’s Secretariat of Foreign Relations including Juan Sandoval Mendiolea, Director General for the UN; Karin Oechler, advisor to the Executive Management for Political Coordination; and Carlos González Cedano, the Adjunct Events General Manager, proceeded with the inspections needed to make the final decision.

“There’s no doubt the Riviera Nayarit’s top-notch hotel infrastructure plus the quality and excellence in service makes it a destination worthy of this kind of international event,” said Marc Murphy, Managing Director of the Riviera Nayarit Convention and Visitors Bureau. “It’s an honor to be considered by the UN to host a conference of this magnitude.”

The CVB events staff assisted the UN personnel from the moment they arrived until the moment they left. They took the group on tours of different hotels in Nuevo Vallarta, which would accommodate the 700 attendees.

They also visited the Paradise Village Hotel, site of the convention center that will host the event. Several meetings took place with hotel executives to finalize details. Reservations contracts will be signed during the first week of November.

It is thanks to the investment and initiative of the People’s Government—headed by Roberto Sandoval Castañeda—that an event of this scale and with such a worldwide impact can take place in the Riviera Nayarit. This also serves to powerfully position the destination’s brand.

According to the Governor’s recent second State of the Government address, Nayarit tops the list in foreign investments and certified clean beaches.

The agreement was formalized between IPROVIPE and INFONAVIT

In order to facilitate access to housing finance for public officials of Jalisco, the State Governor, Jorge Aristóteles Sandoval Díaz, formalized an agreement between the Real Estate and Housing Promoter of Public Interest of the State of Jalisco (IPROVIPE) and the National Housing Fund for Workers (INFONAVIT), whose owner, Alejandro Murat also signed the agreement.

The governor explained that an immediate goal of this agreement will be the allocation of a thousand housing credits for a thousand public servants of Jalisco, which include 500 officers of the security forces.

The governor also stressed that this agreement will trigger access to housing loans for workers of the 103 municipalities that currently do not have the option of accessing INFONAVIT schemes and the Pensions Institute of Jalisco (IPEJAL).

He stressed that in between the objectives of this agreement, there will be the priorities to promote marital credits "for husbands who work at City Hall and public and private organizations and who are listed on the pension scheme or in the INFONAVIT so that they can accumulate their loans and get more financing for their home".

Also, Sandoval Díaz mentioned that with these actions the proper utilization of 223 thousand square meters which are in the IPROVIPE territorial reserves is intended, especially in eight municipalities of Jalisco, like Tala, Lagos de Moreno, San Martin Hidalgo, Etzatlán, Ahualulco Market, La Barca, Tlajomulco de Zuniga and Guadalajara.

In his speech, the governor noted that there is a committed to advance the urban densification where there are already urban infrastructure services, such as Guadalajara and thereby rectify situations of abandonment of urban centers, as in the capital of Jalisco where there are questionable situations, such as school enrollment that is covered only by 25 percent in certain localities due to the existence of urban spaces without the desirable population.

For his part, the head of the Ministry of Agrarian, Territorial and Urban Development (SEDATU), Jorge Carlos Ramírez Marín, said that this year substantial progress was made in strengthening the federal housing policy, which promises continuity for 2014, once that six months in advance they have the operating rules for next year.

They will work in making the processes more transparent, so that with training and good performance the officers are able to access new jobs

One of the priorities in regards to the topic of public safety for the government headed by Ramón Guerrero Martinez, is to have a better prepared police force that is service-minded and honest, and that they have the opportunity to develop and aspire to new appointments, allowing them to provide a better quality of life to their families.

To that end, on Thursday the Municipal Commission of Police Careers was formally established with which not only there will be a compliance with the National Security System, but it also ensures transparency in income, stability, incentives, promotion and a worthy retirement for officers.

During the first working session, the president swore in the president of the commission, the Mayor Rogelio Hernández de la Mata, Commissioner of the Road and Preventive Police, while the electoral college is formed by the ruler of the Public Safety Committee, Otoniel Barragán Espinoza and the aldermen Javier Pelayo Méndez, Susana Mendoza Carreño, Doris Ponce Aguilar, Jesús Anaya Vizcaíno, and the road agent, Marco Josué; the preventive police Eduardo Santiago Mora Ramírez; the tourist police Silvia Janeth Delgado Barrera, and the representatives of the Centro Universitario de la Costa, UNIVA Vallarta, COPARMEX, CANIRAC, CTM and the CROM.

This electoral college shall make decisions to ensure the professionalism, training and upgrading of the police force staff, because to the extent that the officers have the dedication to service, they are prepared to perform their work and respond to the security challenges that are posed, it is essential that they can access better jobs to make Puerto Vallarta the safest tourist destination.

They claim that the "so-called education reform" is rather a labor reform that affects their interests

For the second time since the start of the teachers' resistance movement against the so-called education reform, a group of teachers from Puerto Vallarta protested marching from the facilities of the Integral Port Administration (API) to the Regional Education Service Delegation (Derse) but this time there were less participants and they didn't generate heavy traffic as on the previous occasion on September 25, although they did hamper the traffic flow on the Avenida Prisciliano Sánchez.

The teachers, mostly members of the Democratic Teachers Assembly in Jalisco, say that they are against the "so-called education reform" which to them is a "labor and administrative reform, but not a teaching one" because they believe that it promotes aspects of labor rather than educational ones.

On Wednesday October 2, about 500 teachers were concentrated in the vicinity of the API and walked to the Derse facilities across the residential development Fluvial Vallarta on Avenida Grandes Lagos.

THE NONCONFORMITIES
Protesting teachers, belonging to the National Coordinator of Education Workers (CNTE), listed a number of aspects of the Reform with which they are against: the first of them is that it does not mention the changes and improvements in the pedagogical aspects of educational planning.

They indicated that the reform promotes the administrative factor, "there is no talk about the saturation of groups that in the public sector are between 40 and 60 students, neither about making enough schools; a better salary is not considered for the teachers, for which they have to find a second teaching position, neither an improvement in the school equipment nor the proposed 8 percent spending in education".

Other groups of teachers from different schools joined the contingent which came from several avenues that lead to Grandes Lagos.

Thus, said the local teachers that are unhappy with the new education laws, they are joining the national movement of "peaceful civil disobedience" to which the magisterial leaders have convened. They assure that the new laws will hurt them because it affects their labor, their seniority, their stay in their jobs, their job security, among other things.

When they got to the Derse facilities, the teachers had a meeting in which they defended their arguments and asked the public to get informed and to join their dissent, with the intention that the federal government "reverses and abolishes the new education laws. "

It is noteworthy that the head of the Derse, Roberto Palomera Preciado, received a committee representing the protesting teachers at closed doors, without communicating the details of the meeting.

The disagreement of Antorcha Campesina for the abandonment of the works in southern Jalisco, was resolved with a tour of supervision between the head of the agency and the Social Organization leaders, instead of a march-protest that was to take effect in front of the facilities of the Jalisco Center of the Ministry of Communications and Transport.

During the inspection, Bernardo Gutierrez Navarro, director of the Jalisco Center of the SCT, Eduardo Campos Flores, state leader of Antorcha Campesina, Guadalupe Valle Chávez, leader in the Southern Region and Serafin García Hernández, liaison with federal antorchista deputies, toured seven road works, located in different geographical points in the southern part of the entity: Atequizayán, Alista, Tinajas, la Parota, La Parotilla, the Rosa bridge in San Antonio and a road that connects to various populations with Talpa de Allende.

The members of the tour, directly confirmed the state in which the works are kept, in which an investment of 114.5 million pesos is applied, obtained through the efforts of the Movimiento Antorchista of Jalisco and federal representatives from the same organization, which include roads, junctions and bridges, as main transformers for social development.

The tour begins
The starting point was Ciudad Guzmán, where on one hand the progress of an introductory section for the highway's north bypass was confirmed up to the Monument of Solidaridad, also involving the intersection Tecnológio and 4 Caminos. However, in the village of Atequizayán the decision was made to dispense with the services of the building company, due to the obvious delays that resulted in damages to the project.

The next stop was in San Gabriel, specifically in the town of Alista, where it was confirmed that the main street is 90 percent complete, it is a work that is a kilometer of pavement with hydraulic stamping. The representative of the agency and the antorchista leaders, stopped in front of the Technical High School, where they held a briefing with local residents for considering the need to place speed bumps. Then they continued with the work tour, reaching the community of La Tinaja, where 300 meters to enter the place is being built, with quality asphalt that is 5 inches thick. The amount exerted in this area is of 9 million pesos.

Later, they reached the town of Tolimán, where they visited La Parota, in which they placed a section that connects the towns of Santa Elena, La Parotilla and Zapotitlán de Vadillo. Here the construction staff of the Chavez building company was instructed to continue their construction work with formality. The first 4 kilometers of a total of 16 have already been achieved , the resources for this project totaling 12 million pesos.

Also in Tolimán, the opportunity was taken to go into the San Antonio disaster zone, where the meteorological phenomena "Manuel" and "Ingrid", caused serious damages to the bridge De la Rosa, San Antonio, where the link of 60 meters of length requires immediate attention, for which Bernardo Gutierrez announced that it would be included within the Natural Disaster Fund (Fonden). Close by there was a follow up to the junction 4 Caminos, where there is a significant percentage of completion, very soon to be one hundred per percent.

At the conclusion of the work tour, the Movimiento Antorchista of Jalisco, through its leader Eduardo Campos Flores thanked the official of the SCyT for his availability to personally service the disagreements and concerns with respect to the works, to which Gutierrez Navarro responded with a compromise "there is no need to be protesting outside the offices, because whenever it is necessary I will come to take care of your needs. I will be very attentive to the development of these important social projects", he concluded.

It is a matter that should be discussed widely, says Ortiz Ignacio Pérez Vega. - Around 11,000 activists of the National Regeneration Movement (Morena) will knock on every house in 60 municipalities of Jalisco to collect signatures to require the federal government and Congress to make a national consultation on the energy reform.

At a press conference held at the Plaza de Armas, Humberto Ortiz said that it should be explained to the people of Jalisco and all the Mexicans in general, the scope of the constitutional changes that are proposed by Peña Nieto and his party, the PRI, which has the support of the PAN.
Ortiz said that the energy reform is an issue that should be discussed extensively and therefore he has sought the PRI state leader, Hugo Contreras, with the objective of accepting a debate on energy reform in Jalisco.

"We're giving the citizens elements in order to have a criteria of the PRI proposal and the project aims to encourage citizens who want the oil to continue as a national heritage", he said.

However, in radio stations and in various media where members of the PRI and Morena are convened, the PRI representatives are absent and shun the discussion of ideas, said the leader of Morena.

The signatures collected in Jalisco and across the country will be taken on October 6th to Mexico City, to a concentration presided by Andrés Manuel López Obrador. "Hopefully this government will have the sensitivity and talent to make that query to be binding", he said.
