In its effort to enhance the law enforcement and disaster response capability of its barangays, the local government of Polanco (a 3rd class municipality adjacent to Dipolog City) recently distributed the second batch of brand new multicabs to 10 barangays of this town.
In a simple ceremony held at the Polanco Municipal gymnasium on July 21, Mayor Evan Hope D. Olvis turned over the brand new multicabs to the barangay chairmen of Bandera, Bethlehem, Sto. Niño, Isis, Deventa Perla, New Sicayab, Pian, Poblacion South, Guinless and Dansullan.
Dansullan Barangay Chairman and Association of Barangay Chairmen president Charito Ombalino expressed his gratitude to Mayor Olvis for providing service vehicles to their barangays which they will use in the performance of law enforcement functions, disaster response operation and in times of emergency.
Olvis, who is also chairman of the Polanco Municipal Peace and Order Council (MPOC), said the vehicles were purchased through the funds provided by the Council as agreed by its members.
Last year, LGU-Polanc also gave multicabs to Barangays Poblacion North, Villahermosa, Linabo, Dangi, San Miguel, Obay, Milad, Silawe, Macleodes, and New Lebangon.
Next year, the remaining 10 barangays of Polanco can also expect their service vehicles from the municipal government.
The Mayor appealed to the barangay chairmen to take good care of the vehicles and only use them accordingly.
