So off to the Wiki Pages For a Little History. Just a bit of a Review for those who have followed the show from the beginning…. In 1918, the village of Las Penas was elevated to municipality status and renamed after former state governor Ignacio Vallarta. During the early years of the 20th century, most of Puerto Vallarta was owned by the Union en Cuale company, controlled by the American Alfred Geist. Geist sold land only in large plots at prices that were quite high for the time and otherwise leased the land on short term leases. To remedy this situation and to enable the new municipality to develop, the citizens petitioned the government for a land grant based on the new Mexican constitution's provisions. In 1921, the Local Agrarian Commission approved a grant of some 9,400 hectares (23,000 acres; 36 square miles), with the land to be expropriated from the Union en Cuale company. The grant was established as an ejido holding (a farming cooperative administered by the government). But legal squabbling over the size of the land grant, and the ejido status of the properties involved would stymie growth in Puerto Vallarta into the 1960s, as developers were reluctant to build anything too substantial on land for which one could not obtain clear title. (As we know, Ejido land is controlled by individuals who are given licenses to use it, but it could not be sold, subdivided or leased.) Cristero War 1926-1929 I didn’t know this, but during the Cristero War, which took place between 1926 and 1929, Vallarta was twice taken over by Cristero forces (April 1927 and January 1928).
