Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua – The Municipal Government of Ciudad Juarez, through the Directorate of Parks and Gardens, completed a comprehensive rehabilitation project for the green areas at the Municipal Institute for Women (IMM). The initiative focused on improving the aesthetic and environmental conditions of the facility’s exterior spaces.
Enhancing Urban Greenery
Daniel Iván Zamarrón Saldaña, head of the Directorate of Parks and Gardens, stated that the intervention was essential to promote healthy vegetation growth and eliminate potential risks caused by deteriorating trees. Work crews removed two dead tree stumps and performed specialized pruning on existing vitex trees to ensure safe pedestrian access and promote proper growth patterns.
New Plantings and Maintenance
As part of the renovation, the city planted 14 new specimens, including:
- 6 Mesquite trees
- 3 Olive trees
- 5 Lantana shrubs
In addition to the new plantings, the municipality provided natural compost to enrich the soil and support the long-term health of the vegetation.
Environmental Education for Municipal Staff
Beyond physical improvements, the project emphasized environmental awareness. Two employees from the Municipal Institute for Women received official recognition for completing environmental education workshops held in October at the municipal nursery. The training covered practical skills such as:
- Composting techniques
- Proper tree planting methods
- Safe and effective pruning procedures
Zamarrón Saldaña highlighted the importance of inter-departmental collaboration in maintaining public spaces. "These activities aim to strengthen the participation of municipal personnel in environmental conservation efforts by applying the knowledge acquired during the workshops," he added.
This project is part of a broader municipal effort to improve urban infrastructure and public facilities throughout Ciudad Juarez, ensuring that government buildings remain well-maintained and environmentally sustainable.
