Adrián Emilio de la Garza Santos (born 17 September 1971) is a Mexican lawyer and politician who serves as the municipal president of Monterrey since 2024.

[5] On 24 January 2015, de la Garza resigned in order to contend for the Institutional Revolutionary Party's nomination for the municipal president of Monterrey in the 2015 state election.

One week later, Senator Marcela Guerra, who had registered as a precandidate for the municipal president of Monterrey, withdrew in favor of de la Garza.

[13] The special election was held on 23 December 2018, in which de la Garza won with 41.22% of the vote, becoming the first municipal president of Monterrey to be reelected for a consecutive term.

During De la Garza's tenure, the municipality added 780 new vehicles to the police force between 2017 and 2020,[18] built a new police academy with an investment of MXN $110 million,[19] and, as part of the Sistema de Seguridad e Inteligencia (in English: Security and Intelligence System), installed four thousand CCTV cameras, establishing the city's first security camera system.

[20] However, in late 2021, his successor, Luis Donaldo Colosio Riojas, revealed that half of the security camera network was not functional and that 277 of the 452 patrol cars were inoperable.

[27] In 2019, de la Garza appointed Federico Vargas as Monterrey's Secretary of Infrastructure, despite Vargas being banned from holding public office for ten years due to corruption during his tenure as the state's Secretary of Economic Development and Social Development under Governor Rodrigo Medina de la Cruz.

[28] NGO Redes Quinto Poder accused de la Garza of breaking the law by omitting Vargas' ban when appointing him to his cabinet.
