Thursday, August 21, 2008 Cosalan asks NHA's nod for employees' housing site By Rimaliza Opiña
AS THE City Government has identified the government housing at Irisan as a temporary dump area, pending before the City Council is a proposal for the acquisition of lots in Tuba as housing site for quality city employees.
In a proposed measure, Councilor Isabelo Cosalan Jr. requested the National Housing Authority (NHA) for the signing of a joint undertaking with the Baguio City Government for the acquisition of 220 residential lots within the resettlement site in Tadiangan, Tuba, Benguet.
The site will be awarded to qualified employees of the City Government, Cosalan said.
The housing site at Irisan has not been fully developed because of protests from a nearby subdivision. P15 million was recently allotted for the area for development as residual containment area.
