Metropolitan Participatory Budget (Jalisco)
The Metropolitan Participatory Budget of Jalisco is a participatory instrument through which citizens decide on which projects the money collected through the housing tax is spent on. The most voted on proposals throughout the consultations are those that are implemented. After paying the housing tax the citizen receives a ballot with the options to be voted on. The Metropolitan Participatory Budget is applied in four municipalities of the state of Jalisco: Tlajomulco, Guadalajara, Zapopan and Tlaquepaque.
