Agapito reviews drainage
Facing rain equal to the island record set by Hurricane Wilma
Mayor Agapito Magana Sanchez toured the important areas of the island to verify that the pumps and drains were functioning, with the constant rains that have fallen in recent days. The manager of Aguakan,José Pinzón Sarabia, accompanied him, who said, "Just yesterday was heaviest rainfall with over 100 millimeters of water, which represents 25% of the total water left by the passage of Wilma over the municipality, during three days, in 2005" “Tan sólo el día de ayer se dio la mayor precipitación pluvial en más de 100 milímetros de agua, esto representó alrededor del 25% del agua total que dejó el paso del huracán Wilma durante los tres días por el municipio, en el año 2005”.
Young people between the ages of 15 and 29 years are invited to the casting call to participate as speaker in the program “Poder Joven Radió which will take place on Thursday, Dec 12 in Benito Juarez municipality (Cancun). Islanders can register at the IMJUVE offices in Salina Chica, next to the library between 9am and 4pm. In addition to the talks and workshops at the high school and in the Continental Zone this past week, in upcoming weeks there will be activities organized in the parks and public spaces, to provide healthy recreational opportunities for teens.
There are no plans to suspend any crossings by the vehicular ferry, which also provides passenger service, and none of the crossings have been suspended between Isla Mujeres and Puerto Juarez or Grand Harbor. Despite the winds caused by Cold Front #12, service has continued normally, and it is noted that the port was closed to boats under 50 feet in length, which does not include the ferries.
