As the previous administration of the Municipal GAD of Riobamba left without credit capacity at the national level, Mayor John Vinueza went to international organizations and obtained 33.6 million dollars from the European Investment Bank (EIB) in Ecuador, 15% of which is non-refundable , meaning that it does not have to be paid and for the rest of the capital the interest to be paid is 5.5%. 33.6 million for water and sewage.

Meeting. On the issue of credit to the Municipal GAD of Riobamba, Mayor John Vinueza Salinas said that for Riobamba it was a privilege to have the presence of 53 mayors from various cantons of the country, who held a meeting with representatives of the Development Bank of Ecuador (BDE), the European Investment Bank, the German Cooperation and the French Cooperation.

Resources. The resources will be allocated to drinking water and sewage works, whose non-reimbursable funds will be used in the Las Abras collector.

The credit resources will benefit all sectors of the city, the eastern collectors will be taken into account, which benefit from the exit to Baños to Cubijíes, thereby leaving the Guano River clean; The other collector would solve the problems of the eastern-southern area and involves a connection to the pipeline that goes through the Chambo exit to the La Inmaculada collector; Then there is another collector that would go along the entire Chibunga River, collecting the wastewater that enters the river and that would be connected to a large treatment plant, what comes from the Inmaculada collector would also enter, the great work would cost about twenty million.

Sectors. The other works would cost between two and six million, which would be treating 80 to 90% of the city’s wastewater. The sectors of La Libertad and the exit to San Luis would be missing, where they are already starting with separate collectors: on one side the rainwater will go and, on the other, the waste water. This would lead to a cleaner Chibunga River, is the argument of Mayor John Vinueza Salinas.
