Deliberative Council of the Municipal Institute of Investigation and Planning of Juárez

The Deliberative Council of the Municipal Institute of Investigation and Planning of Juárez (Chihuahua) is composed of a total of 22 members. These members include: municipal officials, six citizen councilors, representatives of the state government of urban planning and development, and a representative of the federal government. Eleven of the twenty-two members have a vote; yet most of the votes belong to the citizens, which protects the Institute from political influence and promotes social participation in decisions regarding the Institute. The Council approves the Institute's general program of administration and operation, its annual budget and program, among other functions.
