Municipalidad de San Isidro

What Municipalidad de San Isidro does

Municipalidad de San Isidro is the local government entity serving the San Isidro distrito in the northern zone of Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. Founded in 1850 and employing between 1,001 and 5,000 people, it administers public services across six localities (San Isidro, Martínez, Boulogne, Villa Adelina, Acassuso, and Beccar) under the leadership of Intendente Ramón Lanús. The municipality's portfolio spans public safety, urban management, social assistance, health, education, culture, and administrative services, with notable programs including Ojos en Alerta (a WhatsApp-based community safety network with 23,000+ users and sub-5-minute patrol response), Operativo Frío (homeless assistance reaching 249 individuals in winter 2025), and a Casas de Cultura network offering 250+ courses.

The municipality's technology backbone is the TESI (Tramitador Electrónico de San Isidro) digital platform, which provides online access to commercial habilitations, course registration, theater tickets, and appointment scheduling. Complementary digital infrastructure includes the Pago Electrónico system for ABL tax collection, the Boleta Digital paperless billing system, the Portal de Turnos Online for scheduling, and the Centro de Operaciones Municipal (COM) which coordinates emergency response. The Ojos en Alerta program integrates WhatsApp as a citizen-facing reporting channel. Physical infrastructure includes delegaciones in each locality, multiple museums (Museo del Juguete, Museo Pueyrredón, Quinta Los Ombúes), and the Teatro del Viejo Consejo.

The revenue model is a hybrid of taxation and fees: ABL (Alumbrado, Barrido y Limpieza) property taxes, revenue from commercial habilitations and licenses (currently offered free of charge via TESI), tuition-based cultural courses at Casas de Cultura, and municipal fines processed through the Tribunal de Faltas. The municipality also receives provincial and national transfers as a government entity. The customer base is effectively the entire resident population and local business community of the distrito, with no commercial alternative providers within the jurisdiction.
