Nicolas Vega Pedroza, president of the ejido, reported that withdrew the camp in exchange for a meeting with federal authorities of the Secretariat of Communications and Transportation (SCT) in Mexico City; there alternatives and agreements will be defined for payment. After four hours of negotiations with the General Secretariat of Government of Jalisco, Vega Pedroza said that rely on having a favorable response by paying their lands. "It's getting a minute where signed agreements remain to be fulfilled; why go to Mexico City with instances that can ultimately solve the problem, "said ejidatario. For his part, Secretary General of Government, Roberto Lopez Lara, reported that parking will operate from Friday without restriction and at no cost to users. He said that this measure was agreed in conjunction with the Pacific Airport Group (GAP) to ease the complications that motorists who attended the air terminal clashed. The federal authority has reiterated that awaits the response of the court ruled in favor of the ejidatarios to detail the scope of the payment and the amount, they insist, is less than what they ask. "In this case, the Ejido El Zapote is right and look for the alternative that is better and as close to that this sentence is completed in its fully," said Lopez Lara. While the agreements are established, a delegation of ejidatarios remain in the parking lot and the entry of international departures, without interrupting the operations of the airport.
