Beautification
drive in brgys under study
THE City Council committee on tourism
chaired by Councilor Lourdes Candy Darimbang, on Tuesday discussed the proposed
ordinance which will pave the way for the conduct of a beautification drive in all barangays in Cagayan
de Oro City.
Councilor Darimbang, author of the
proposed ordinance, said there is a need for the 80 barangays to take part in
the cleanliness drive to promote and enhance the present ambiance and natural
landscape of the city.
She said one way of captivating the
attention of various communities is to encourage the participation of every
barangay.
The lady councilor said a pleasant
community appearance will add to home values and harness neighborhood
unification. She said it will encourage the active participation of residents
in improving the aesthetics of the community and bring the sense of pride among
the residents.
During the meeting with
representatives from City Tourism & Cultural Affairs Office and some
barangay chairmen, it was agreed that an adhoc committee should be created to study and prepare the mechanics of the
proposed ordinance.
The adhoc committee will be composed
of representatives of the City Tourism Office, City Local Environment and
Natural Resources Office (CLENRO), City Public Services Office (CPSO),
Community Affairs Division, City Accounting Office, City Budget Office and
Association of the Barangay Council headed by Councilor Yan Lam Lim.
The committee will tackle the final
composition of the adhoc committee and mechanics of the proposed ordinance on
November 18, 2014.
