RESOLUTION NO. 32
(Series of 2008)

A RESOLUTION ENJOINING THE SBMA THROUGH THE FSC BOARD TO PRIORITIZE THE ORIGINAL VOLUNTEERS TO BE RETAINED UP TO THE LAST POSSIBLE MOMENT OF ITS EXISTENCE

WHEREAS, the SBMA volunteers breathed life into what was used to be the most strategic US Military Air and Navy Station in the Asian Region, that time left by the Americans due to the military base pull-out. Without the volunteers’ profound concern, skillful hands, resilience and commitment to the vision that Subic will rise again, the said military base may not have captivated its position today;

WHEREAS, the SBMA volunteers, composed of former base workers, balikatan ladies and professionals toiled long and hard for the establishment of the Subic Bay Freeport in Olongapo City. They made what is believed to be the “Subic Miracle”. The concerted efforts they poured and contributed in form part and parcel to what is heralded here and abroad as an outstanding model of military base conversion program replicated in Panama, Vietnam, Iran among others;

WHEREAS, for the sacrifices they had willingly offered, it is but proper that they reap the harvest of what they had sown, by tasting the firstfruits of the SBMA Miracle - the outflow of job opportunities for them, they indeed deserve;

WHEREAS, to date, 200 original volunteers are now fielded in various offices under the Freeport Services Corporation, a subsidiary of the Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority;

WHEREAS, however, the knock of retrenchment from the alleged declaration of bankruptcy by the Freeport Services Corporation caused the volunteers to suffer in fear and agony of being the first to be slashed from the FSC workforce, as announced recently;

WHEREAS, the City deems that such move is not just drastic, but heartless that the present FSC Administration had been reneged to consider upon;

WHEREAS, premises considered, the City Government of Olongapo hereby enjoins the SBMA through the FSC Board to look into the issues and the plight of the original volunteers, all in the spirit of solidarity and patronage;

NOW, THEREFORE, on motion of Councilor Edwin J. Piano co-sponsored by Councilors Gina G. Perez, John Carlos G. delos Reyes, Rodel S. Cerezo, Angelito W. Baloy, Aquilino Y. Cortez, Jr. Anselmo A. Aquino, Elena C. Dabu and Cheene F. Hoya, with the unanimous accord of the Members of the Sangguniang Panlungsod present,

RESOLVED, AS IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED, by the Members of the Sangguniang Panlungsod in session assembled to enjoin, as it hereby enjoins the SBMA through the FSC Board to prioritize the original volunteers to be retained up to the last possible moment of its existence.

Let copies of this Resolution be furnished the SBMA and FSC Boards for their information and appropriate action.

APPROVED UNANIMOUSLY, March 05, 2008.

RESOLUTION NO. 14
(Series of 2008)

A RESOLUTION ENJOINING THE CITY PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT OFFICE (CPDO) AND THE OFFICE OF TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT & PUBLIC SAFETY (OTMPS) TO MAKE STUDIES AND PLANS TO ESTABLISH BICYCLE LANES IN THE MAJOR THOROUGHFARES OF THE CITY OF OLONGAPO


WHEREAS, the rise in economic activity and rejuvenation of the business climate in the City of Olongapo brought about by influx of local investments in both the city and in Subic Bay Freeport Zone, along with an expanding population, resulted to traffic congestion, as more private and public vehicles use the major thoroughfares as well as the parking areas;

WHEREAS, the rising cost of fuel and maintenance cost of vehicles are added financial burden to both private vehicle owners and operators of public utility vehicles;

WHEREAS, the poor maintenance of vehicles by the owners adds to environmental pollution by reducing the quality of air in the city which is detrimental to the health of the people;

WHEREAS, the use of bicycles shall be an alternative to lessen private vehicle usage which will eventually lead to reduction in vehicle emissions and promote good health;

WHEREAS, during the time of the Subic Naval Base as an American Military Installation, Filipino workers often go to and from work using bicycles;

WHEREAS, the streets and major thoroughfares of Olongapo City particularly the Rizal Avenue and RM Drive are congested due to the increasing number of parked private vehicles and other obstructions thereby compromising safety and increasing the risk to danger of pedestrians and bicycle riders;


NOW, THEREFORE, on motion of Councilor Aquilino Y. Cortez, Jr., with the unanimous accord of the Members of the Sangguniang Panlungsod present,

RESOLVED, AS IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED, by the Sangguniang Panlungsod in session assembled, to enjoin, as it hereby enjoins the City Planning & Development Office and the Office of Traffic Management & Public Safety (OTMPS) to make studies and plans to establishment bicycle lanes in the major thoroughfares of the City of Olongapo.
