Mayor Francisco Azcué held a meeting with tourism service providers in our city, with whom he discussed the current situation, particularly during this low season period, and the commitment to analyze possible measures that could be carried out in the future by the Municipality of Concordia for the benefit of the sector.
“From the administration, we continue working with the different institutions of the city through meetings where dialogue prevails and the goal is to continue on this path. We understand that these months are complex for the tourism sector, which is why we echoed the issues they raised,” indicated Azcué.
During the meeting, mention was also made of one of the measures in force since 2024 to support the private sector, which is the application of a cap on the public lighting charge on electricity bills at a maximum of 350 kWh for those classified under the T1G tariff. Furthermore, it was clarified that this important tax benefit includes SMEs that are medium and high demand users -T2 and T3 VIBT (low voltage connection)- with caps of 1,500 kWh and 7,000 kWh respectively.
Likewise, other needs of the sector were heard during the exchange. “We are going to analyze all the requests and we agreed to continue with this type of meeting because we know that the private sector are the ones who bet, invest, and take risks so that this city can be better.”
Present were members of the Hotel and Gastronomic Association; of ACTITUR and the Center for Commerce, Industry and Services of Concordia, and for the Municipality, the Secretary of Cabinet Coordination and Treasury Pablo Ferreyra and the Undersecretary of Tourism, Laureano Schvartzman, attended.
