The Gavel learned that the barangay officials requested the committee for the possible expropriation of the proposed RROW affecting portion of lot nos. 1164 and 1167.

During the committee meeting yesterday, Barangay Chair Dacer said that the residents of the area are clamoring for a RROW for easy access, especially during emergencies. He said there is an identified private lot suitable for the purpose.
