THE Department of Environment and Natural Resources Environmental Management Bureau (DENR-EMB) Region 7 donated a Disinfection Storage Facility worth Php800K to the City of Tagbilaran. Mayor Jane Yap flew to Cebu for the Memorandum of Agreement signing along with City Environment and Natural Resources Officer (CENRO) Cesar Pelaez and Acting City Planning and Development Officer Engr. Estella Margate.
The municipalities of Dimiao, Loon, Ubay, and Valencia also received the same facility from EMB.
Mayors Dionisio Neil Balite of Valencia and Levi Relampagos of Loon also attended the MOA signing.
Mayor Jane Yap has been relentless in her pursuit for environmental protection.
The day after Tagbilaran City’s Charter Day, the Bamboo Tree Growing Activity with partner, the Bohol Chronicle Radio Corporation represented by its General Manager Peter Dejaresco made a tree planting activity in Brgy. Dampas.
It should also be remembered that Mayor Jane Yap encouraged all sectors to engage in tree growing activities in vacant city government lots.
Further, the entire City Hall Family also participated actively in the International Coastal Clean-up. The DENR-EMB recognized our efforts to protect our environment when it awarded Tagbilaran City the Best in Dumpsite Closure and Rehabilitation Implementation.
And last month, Mayor Jane Yap turned-over two new garbage trucks to the Solid Waste Management Office. The green park in Dao Central Market was also completed and had its blessing. (Jeanette Busano)
