The Presidency of the Council of Ministers (PCM) announced on March 1 that it has led a process to clarify and formalize the boundaries of eight districts in southern Lima. The initiative, carried out through the Secretariat of Demarcation and Territorial Organization and in coordination with the Metropolitan Municipality of Lima, involves Chorrillos, Lurín, Pachacámac, Punta Hermosa, San Juan de Miraflores, Santiago de Surco, Villa El Salvador, and Villa María del Triunfo.
This effort is described as an important step for territorial development in the capital. Officials say that reaching agreements on district boundaries will result in better organization of territory, clearer legal definitions for residents, and improved public administration.
According to PCM, the agreement covers a total of 15.1 kilometers of territorial boundaries among these districts. This represents progress toward resolving about 40 percent of their shared borders. Authorities said this milestone will help consolidate orderly territory management and facilitate urban planning as well as service delivery to local populations.
A formal signing ceremony took place on March 18 at the Metropolitan Municipality of Lima. Representatives from all eight districts participated by signing official boundary agreements.
The government said this action reaffirms its commitment to technical and collaborative processes that support territorial development, governance, and improvements in quality of life for more than two million residents living in these areas.
