Subd committee endorses expropriation of lot affected by Tablon road project

THE City Council Committee on Subdivision and Landed Estate, chaired by Councilor Edgar S. Cabanlas, recommended the approval of the request authorizing City Mayor Rolando A. Uy to file an expropriation proceeding against the owners of structures affected by the infirmary road project in Tablon.

The Gavel learned that Mayor Uy requested the committee to authorize him to negotiate with the owners of buildings, fences, and other properties that were affected by the 10.00-meter-wide proposed road project.  

It may be recalled that the City Council enacted an ordinance appropriating an amount of ₱1.06 million for the payment of the claim for just compensation of claimants affected by the said project.

With this, Councilor Cabanlas endorsed the request to his Committee on Laws and Rules for appropriate action.
