CALBAYOG CITY – The
Department of Public Works and Highways constructed a Government
Center at Calbayog City. The three-storey building has a revised
contract amount of P28.7 million. It has a total area of 488.78
square meters.
This new building will
house government offices such as the National Bureau of
Investigation while others are still under negotiations such as
PhilHealth and Pag-IBIG. This is part of the city’s goal to put
government offices in one place for the convenience of the
transacting public.
The building is situated
at Barangay Bagacay where other offices are already in existence (BIR,
PNP and the Procurement Office). This idea of bringing together
government offices in one place will bring efficiency and faster
transaction to better serve the public.
The project is a product
of a collaboration between the Local Government Office giving the
Department of Public Works and Highways the right to build such a
structure that is beneficial to the people of Calbayog City.
