The turnover was held last Mar. 26.

MAYOR Eric C. Codilla continues to pour projects in Ormoc. Two of these are the ongoing construction of covered courts in Bagong Buhay and Can-adieng funded by the P20 million supplemental budget for the construction and upgrading/repair of socio-cultural and sports facilities.

The covered court in Bagong Buhay, awarded to Benjamin Ong Jr. Construction began last Jan. 3 and will be completed within 140 working days. This is Mayor Codilla’s latest project in the barangay after building an elementary schoolhouse, road concreting and drainage rehabilitation.

On the other hand, the covered court in Can-adieng was awarded to Jonathan B. Bautista Enterprises and sub-contracted to MP Bantasan Construction & Allied Services. Work began October last year and is expected to be completed on March. Workers are now installing the trusses and roofing.
 

Mayor Codilla’s administration has already built 22 covered courts including those that are still being built. During his visit to Dolores, the mayor said that since the barangay already has a covered court, he will just build a stage in it while the existing stage will be converted into a schoolhouse.
 

In Ipil where Mayor Codilla first built a covered court, residents ask

ed for projects like drainage, pathway, water system, streetlighting, electrification in some sitios and classroom roofing. He committed to Barangay Captains Conrado Delgado to

fulfill the requests.
