10 Automobiles are being manufactured at an impressive rate of 50 million per year, a 6.5% growth rate per year. This in large part explains why worldwide urban expansion is advancing at a faster pace than urban population, our cities are losing density at a 1.5% rate per year challenges 19 Most cities have zoning codes dating from the 80s and 90s, these largely reproduced low intensity use prevailing at the time, besides, urban planning in those years was heavily control oriented, many artificial limits to cities growth where built into the codes. As a result large tracks of the most valuable urban land today remains under used and overregulated 20 challenges 10

11 challenges Progressive housing for the poor is technically incompatible with multystory multy-family developments Tradition and culture still favor detached individual housing challenges 21 Neighbors reclaim public spaces and infrastructure as their own, increased development permits must generally overcome strong public opposition 22 11

12 The continued rise in oil prices is damping demand for automobile travel, boosting other more environmental friendly alternatives to this mode of transportation Opportunities 23 the inner cities hold 90,000 hectares of vacant fully served land This area could house 7.6 million people, equivalent to half the expected growth in cities for the following 30 years and beyond Opportunities 24 12

13 A large part of the built environment has yet to be built in order to accommodate important differences in growth rates due to internal migration. 3 federal entities and 54 cities are already loosing population Playa del Carmen Opportunities National Urban System Growth Rates Ocosingo Growth rate Los Cabos ZM Monterrey ZM Guadalajara ZM Valle de México , ,000 1,000,000 10,000, ,000,000 Population Age MEXICO: Population Pyramids, Age profile Male Female Opportunities People Millons The changing family structure and the aging of our population favors denser configurations; we can expect a Fuente: CONAPO, Proyected Population shift of consumer preferences towards more cosmopolitan 26 medium density mixed use urban environments 13

14 Global warming has become a worldwide concern and it is generating incentives and turning public opinion and public policy towards sustainable solutions 27 Opportunities 28 Tool kit for public policy 14

15 Fees and taxes to fully internalize externalities Taxes on under used real estate based on opportunity costs Impact fees to fully capture the externalities originated by urban sprawl 29 Regulation and public investment Investment in public spaces to ignite urban renewal Public investment in neighborhood upgrading Increased permissible densities as Incentives for the recycling of under used urban land Evaluation and upgrading of the urban regulatory framework 30 15

16 Changing the transportation paradigm in cities Financing public transportation projects Promoting Alternatives to the use of the automobile Congestion tariffs Parking tariffs Eliminating subsidies on automobile Raising taxes on gasoline and automobile ownership 31 Housing-based Incentives Houses make up 60% of the city In Mexico 80% of housing in the formal sector is financed by national entities Federal subsidies for the sector and national entities policies should help reshape cities towards sustainability 32 16
