Committee Reports

Councilor Gie Baloy reported about the Quarterly Meeting of the Provincial Tourism Investment Promotion Officers of Zambales last September 13, 2007, held at the Provincial Tourism Office of Iba. It was organized by the DTI headed by Provincial Caretaker Ms. Leonila Baluyut and was attended by representatives from Olongapo, Castillejos, San Marcelino, San Felipe, Cabangan, Botolan, Iba, Palauig and Masinloc.

Included in the agenda were the following: the work plan for a new Zambales; the implementation of the Investment Code; industry updates such as the Information and Communications Technology Fair; the execution of the Internal Monitoring System and the inception of a streamlined work process for security business permit.

Councilor delos Reyes, Chair of the Committee on Complaints and Investigations put it on record that he drafted two motions for reconsideration. He requested the Council Members who have not yet affixed their signatures to either sign or if there were objections, to put it into writing to be able to justify the long delay in the release of the decision. On the other hand, the Turalba vs. Brgy. Capt. Carlito Baloy Administration case still needs to be decided upon.

For the report regarding the Committee on Public Utilities, Councilor delos Reyes informed the body that he was able to secure a copy of a resolution of the Subic Bay Water Regulatory Board, courtesy of Mr. Ben Miranda. The said resolution denied the petition of Subic Water for a water rate increase for this year. He hoped that this will not be subjected to the filing of a reconsideration, where the board will approve just the same.

For the pending ratification of the resolution on the MOA regarding the establishment of a Police Crime Laboratory in the City, the Councilor told the body that he was informed by Mrs. Arlene Dascil a Forensic Chemist and by SPO3 Miguel Acosta that the Crime Laboratory is lacking of the needed equipments and facilities such as a SOCO van, a freezer etc. He suggested for the Office of the City Mayor to review the agreements they signed.

Councilor Cortez first gave a report on the meeting with SBMA Officials led by Engr. Mar Sanque and Sanitary Landfill Project Technical Working Committee Members which he, Councilor Gie Baloy and Mr. Dante Ramos of ESMO attended. It was about the city’s proposal to host SBMA’s garbage.

There are two options in the proposal prepared by the City ESMO. The first option provides that Olongapo will collect the garbage from SBMA residents and locators where Olongapo can either collect the fee directly from the residents/locators or SBMA shall remit the fees to Olongapo. The second option provides that Olongapo will host the garbage from SBMA’s dumpsite.

According to the Councilor, the city will form its Technical Working Committee to study the financial aspect of the city’s proposal to host and collect SBMA’s garbage. The SBMA will prepare a list of its heavy equipments and its maintenance, operation cost and depreciated value for the purpose of either donation or to be part of the agreement with the city. SBMA will likewise submit their garbage collection cash flow. They asked Mr. Ramos of the long term plan for the Sanitary Landfill in compliance with RA 9003.

As an update, to the Sanitary Landfill, Councilor Cortez said that Mr. Dolly Cabezo, RA 9003 Task Force Team Leader of EMB DENR, Region III reiterated that Olongapo needs to submit a Gantt Chart providing the time table and checklist for compliance with RA 9003. It is required prior to the issuance of a certificate stating that the city’s landfill will not closed. The ESMO explained that the Gantt Chart will be based on the city’s schedule of implementation. Phase I is the containerization of garbage and sanitary transportation which forms part of the DBP loan amounting to PhP177 Million. This phase includes the PhP7 Million Engineering of the Sanitary Landfill. Ms. Cabezo mentioned that the other LGUs are closely monitoring Olongapo’s compliance to RA 9003. She also offered to provide technical assistance to the city.

Councilor Cortez on behalf of Councilor delos Reyes who chairs the Committee on Transportation, informed the body that the meeting of all J-01 and J-11 jeepneys to be attended by the City Mayor is scheduled the next day.

Councilor Cerezo reported before the body about the group of students who competed in the Milo National Little Olympics at Lingayen, Pangasinan. The students coming from OCNHS and St. Joseph’s College garnered 14 gold medals from the competition and temporarily ranked first, awaiting the results of the other events to be played in the Taekwando Competition, inorder to determine whether we can clinch the overall championship.

Councilor Marzan extended her invitation to all members to attend the Committee hearing to discuss the matter regarding the request of PUD for appropriation in the purchase of items under Capital Outlay. The meeting was set on Monday at 9:00 a.m.

Calendar of Business

Second Reading:

1. Councilor Marzan moved to open for discussion Draft Ordinance No. 2007 – O-27 – “An Ordinance Creating A Special Account – Gordon College IT Under The General Fund For The Gordon College”, Explaining the background why this ordinance is being introduced. According to the proponent, it was decided by the Board of Trustees of Gordon College to establish a Special Program for the Department of Computer Science where they are going to offer short term courses every summer. Certain portions of the tuition fees and laboratory fees being paid by students will be placed under Special Account of the Gordon College under IT. This will become the source of funds aside from the total collections of Gordon College to be used for whatever program they will undertake. She explained further that it should be the Sanggunian who should approve this ordinance, because the Board of Trustees has no power to approve the creation of a Special Account. In response to Councilor Lipumano’s question, Mrs. Pame explained that they are short term courses with ten hours per course offered during summer. She also explained to Councilor Dabu that the actual fees for the ten hour completion of one module are what the students are paying for.

Finally, on motion of Councilor Marzan, Draft Ordinance No. 27 was unanimously approved by the body on its second and final reading.

2.

8. Councilor Cortez moved to open for discussion, Draft Resolution No. 2007 – R-64 - “A Resolution Implementing An Experimental Truck Ban Within The Major Thoroughfares And Streets Of Olongapo City”. The proponent clarified that this resolution will not infringe on any national laws or existing laws because there are roads where the city cannot prohibit passage of vehicles. But the city can only regulate the hours fixed for banning entry of trucks from 7:00 a.m. to 9: 00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., 4:00 p.m. -8:00 p.m. Also, taken into consideration was the time of business operation that will be affected as well as the hours when students and workers go to school and place of work.

Proper signages will be installed on strategic places to warn truck drivers from entering the city within the specified hours. It will also enforce a total truck ban for dump trucks hauling white sand from Zambales on the use of city roads since the road may deteriorate fast with the number of trucks passing Rizal Avenue. The proponent also mentioned, the plan of SBMA to renovate the Kalaklan bridge leading to SBMA which will take 1-2 years.

Councilor Piano suggested to include in the guidelines some exemptions on this truck ban such as the firetrucks and government trucks, so as not to delay government projects.
