Business Bureau shortens permit renewal process
IT'S good news for all businessmen in the City as the Business Bureau has cut down the steps in renewing business permits.
Business Bureau Chief Jhopee Avanceña-Agustin said for next year's renewal period, businessmen are no longer required to go to the regulatory offices for signatures.
Regulatory offices include the City Health Office, City Engineer's Office, City Environment and Natural Resources Office and the City Veterinarian's Office.
Agustin said the renewal of business permit will only pass through the Business Bureau, City Treasurer's Office (CTO) and back again to her office.
According to her, the new procedure will encourage businessmen to renew their permits themselves instead of hiring fixers.
She, however, said for establishments identified by the Bureau of Fire and Protection as fire high-risk, they will still be required to get the signature of the office. (BRQ)
