Change of Z Season

Two of the older businesses on Cuauhtemoc have closed this summer. I have shopped at both stores for over 30 years. Sad to see this happening to Zihuatanejo. Both sold quality clothing and gifts but could no longer compete. One space is now rented to a pizza place and opening soon another taco joint. The only worse thing would have been another ice cream place or bar.

Does the city officials not care what is happening here?

Apparently they don't. The mayor-elect has not uttered one word in public or TO the public since winning the election. He hasn't even met with the regidores of his own party, much less named any appointments. It seems his administration is also going to concentrate on their own personal wealth as long as there appears to be absolute impunity for every outgoing corrupt official. The only utterance he has made via the press was to recently promise 6 million pesos a year to the OCVIZ, the same promise every presidente municipal in recent history has made and reneged on.

According to the Capitanía de Puerto, no pier reconstruction is currently on the books of any government agency at any level. That REALLY sucks, especially after Eric announced it as a done deal in his last Informe Anual before renouncing his job to seek election as a Diputado Federal, which he thankfully lost.

Yes, Élfega and Fede had to close down as well as her brother Luis across the street. In a few weeks we'll see how much the incoming administration cares.
