What do we want for our cities? What to do and where?<\/p>\n
Arq.

And he pointed out that in Morelia during the rainy season there is a serious problem of flooding in the city, where about 25% of the urban area is affected; so a diagnosis was made where it was found that the limits of the city have spread so much that they have affected the ecosystem areas, resulting in a decrease in natural services that promote a good natural drainage to the water table.<\/p>\n
He also pointed out the importance of knowing the background of territorial planning and of following up on previous diagnoses.<\/p>\n
