THROUGH separate ordinances, the 20th City Council, on its regular session Monday, authorized City Mayor Rolando A. Uy to enter into and sign the Payroll Facility and Services Agreement with the Philippine Veterans Bank (PVB) covering the provision of the latter’s payroll facility and services through the use of the Regular Automated Teller Machine (ATM) Card.

Likewise enacted was an ordinance authorizing Mayor Uy to enter into and sign the Deposit Pick-up Services Agreement with the PVB covering the provision of deposit pick-up services to the City Government of Cagayan de Oro.
