GUAGUA, Pampanga -- Mayor Dante Torres said his administration is now setting its goals for the construction of a legislative building for the town council and the donation of land for the construction of the municipal police station in this town.
Torres said town council meetings and offices of town councilors are usually held at the old municipal building here, which means additional traffic from vehicles and commuters.
He added that the construction of the new legislative building would give adequate space for government workers and public officials.
“The relocation of the municipal police station will also give our local police the much-needed office space for them to properly do their jobs,” Torres said.
Torres said the municipal government is set to donate a piece of land to the Philippine National Police for the construction of their own municipal police station.
Torres said the property is located at the government center in Barangay San Antonio, near the offices of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources and the Department of Public Works and Highways.
“This will enable them to have a bigger and better space for a police station,” Torres said.
He noted that the current police station merely shares office space with other municipal government departments at the Mang Andres Goseco Building in front of the municipal hall.
Torres said he hopes to start construction of the new police station soon.
