Excerpt from a podcast interview with Eugenio Baeza describing municipal cost-saving measures: a proposal that drastically reduced the municipality's garbage expenditure and a public-lighting overhaul by a French company that standardized wiring and lighting (12-hour replacement SLA), costing 600 million pesos over 10 years and paid through public lighting fees.

At that time, the municipality paid 200 million for garbage. And with the proposal I made, they had 200,000 left over, saving 400. Hmm. Then the public lighting is crazy, right? They change bulbs and bulbs and bulbs. Well, I brought in a French company that made us a proposal to change all the wiring, to change all the lights with the different lumens that you have to have by time of day, in the afternoon. The whole thing, everything systematize with an efficiency that each bulb that burned out was changed in 12 hours. That cost 600 million pesos for 10 years. And then the municipality kept it. Yes, but that investment was paid for with just the municipality's public lighting rights. And you took away another amount that it had for maintenance expenses. No.
