The Request describes potential economic and property harms of the Requesters for the works in the downtown area of the city contemplated in the Program. Specifically, the Requesters allege that the paving, drainage, and tree planting works that have been carried out have been carried out without prior information and consultation with the impacted population, which, in addition to having been paralyzed for several months, has prevented the merchants from can open their businesses on a regular basis. As a consequence of the above, they warn of damage to their economy and dismissal of workers. Likewise, the Request also contains an allegation regarding irregularities in the bidding for the works, which is outside the scope of the Mechanism, for which reason this matter was referred to the Bank's Procurement Office.
