El taller explora la implementación de políticas de desarrollo urbano y captura de plusvalías derivadas de la transformación del sistema aeroportuario de la Ciudad de México y fomenta cooperaciones interdepartamentales entre varias agencias gubernamentales mexicanas y el Instituto Lincoln de Políticas de Suelo para optimizar el impacto social del nuevo sistema aeroportuario. Adicionalmente proporciona un foro de discusión para analizar el marco institucional y los instrumentos necesarios para garantizar que el nuevo aeropuerto redunde en beneficio de la ciudad en su conjunto y de los sectores más desfavorecidos del oriente de la aglomeración.

This course, offered in Spanish, seeks to demonstrate the relationships among urban planning practices, the behavior of land markets and the legal foundations of property and public management. The conceptual, legal and economic framework that acts as a base for finance policy and as well as social management of the surplus value of land will be discussed. The course reviews the development of a variety of alternative instruments designed to finance urban goods and services to recover the cost of public investment (tax on improvements and other special contributions), as well as to manage development rights and public land.

This course, offered in Spanish, analyzes a number of concerns about the functioning of the cities that can be analyzed from an economic perspective. Class discussion will focus on land markets, especially the drivers of real estate prices and the various tools that are used in urban policy to meet the fiscal needs of the city.

In collaboration with the Congress for New Urbanism and the Public Sector Consortium, the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy is hosting a two-day capacity-building seminar focusing on strengthening the fiscal health of local governments on May 16th and 17th, 2016. Our objective is to help city officials strengthen their ability to track, manage, and sustain the fiscal health of their communities, guided by Systems Thinking practices.
