Proposed Projects
The Mexico Local Planning Committee (LPC) is conducting an Open Call for Project Proposals to identify potential projects for inclusion in the Mexico Strategic Investment Plan (SIP). The goal is to identify transformative or catalytic projects that can enhance economic development, improve walkability, and strengthen the local community.
All project sponsors are required to submit a form describing their project to be considered by the LPC for inclusion in the list of recommended projects. Forms can be downloaded from this page and are due on or before September 4.
