A RESOLUTION CONFIRMING AND RATIFYING THE AMENDED LIST OF THE MEDICAL EQUIPMENTS FINANCED BY THE DEVELOPMENT BANK OF THE PHILIPPINES (DBP) LOAN AS RECOMMENDED BY THE
CHIEF OF HOSPITAL DR. ARTURO MENDOZA


WHEREAS, by virtue of Resolution No. 36, Series of 2005, an authority was conferred to the City Mayor Hon. James Gordon, Jr. to enter into a Contract of Loan with the Development Bank of the Philippines that will finance the upgrading of equipment and facilities of James L. Gordon Hospital;

WHEREAS, the said resolution was ratified by the same Council through the adoption of Resolution No. 55, Series of 2006;

Whereas, Dr. Arturo Mendoza as the Chief of Hospital decided to amend the list of medical equipment to maximize the amount obtained from the loan by getting the most number of medical equipments in order to improve the delivery of service to their client (facts stated in the letter addressed to Ms. Myrna Reinoso of DBP last February 17, 2007).

WHEREAS, the City Mayor in his letter to Ms. Myrna Reinoso, head of AMD-North Luzon dated 26 February 2007 reiterated the need for such variation and for the following reasons: procuring the most needed equipment thereby enhancing the quality of medical care; maximizing the loan proceeds by obtaining the most number of needed equipment; distributing the approved loan based on actual priority as to the kind and quantity of the equipment; and purchasing the equipment that will have an immediate return of investment and to enable the hospital to raise funds to pay the loan;

WHEREAS, additional equipment in the list are as follows: infant incubator, dermatome, EGD machine and uteroscope;

WHEREAS, both contracting parties had agreed to the changes and can be deduced by the fact that DBP Board has approved the change/adjustment in the original list of hospital equipment;

WHEREAS, the letter of Dr. Arturo Mendoza addressed to Ms. Myrna Reinoso of DBP last February 17, 2007 shall be made an integral part of this resolution together with the amended list of medical equipments;

NOW, THEREFORE, on joint motion of Councilors Marey Beth D. Marzan and Angelito W. Baloy, with the majority decision of the Members of the Sangguniang Panlungsod present,

RESOLVED, AS IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED, by the Sangguniang Panlungsod in session assembled to confirm and ratify, as it hereby confirms and ratifies the amended list of the medical equipments financed by the Development Bank of the Philippines (DBP) loan as recommended by the Chief of Hospital Dr. Arturo Mendoza.
