City Council Approves Fiscal Budget 2026

Los Cabos City Council members approved the Expenditure Budget for the 2026 fiscal yearbeginning January 1, 2026. Mayor Christian Agúndez highlighted that the municipal administration remains committed to transparency, accountability, and close coordination with the community, stressing that all decisions are aimed at ensuring the responsible and efficient use of public resources.

As part of the approved agreements, the City Council authorized property tax incentives to encourage timely payments. Taxpayers will receive a 20 percent discount on property tax payments made in January and February, while a 10 percent discount will apply to payments made in March.

Both projects are intended to improve public safety and urban conditions in San José del Cabo.
