Blaze in 2 towns highlights need
Cebu City councilors (right, including Joy Pesquera and Jun Pe) seek a “cordial” joint session with Cebu Provincial Board members (left, including Luigi Quisumbing and Vic Maambong) to iron out differences on the proposed land exhange between Cebu City Hall and Capitol.(Sun.star file)
A two-year-old girl died while her grandparents suffered burns in a noontime fire that broke out in Sitio Dapdag, Barangay Bugas in the southern town of Badian, Cebu.

In another incident, at least seven stalls in the New Public Market in Sitio Cantecson, Gairan, Bogo were razed last Tuesday night.

The fire in Bogo in northern Cebu was so far the biggest to hit Cebu this month, which was declared by the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP) as Fire Prevention Month. Damage to property was initially pegged at P600,000.
