PAGADIAN CITY, Zamboanga del Sur, March 18 (PNA) -- The local government with the support and “bayanihan effort” of the military and police have completed the construction of 250 houses in this city’s relocation site.

Mayor Romeo Pulmones said Wednesday the 250 houses are part of the 479 housing units that will be constructed for the informal settlers “in need” in Barangay Bulatok, this city.

Pulmones explained they are classified as “in need” since they don’t have the resources to finance the construction of their houses although they have the materials, which are recycled.

Pulmones said the housing materials are recycled since these came from the houses they owned and were demolished when they were relocated to Barangay Bulatok from the coastal area of Barangay Sta. Lucia, this city.

Pulmones said he is grateful to the police and soldiers from the Army’s 53rd Infantry Battalion and 547^th Engineering Battalion who assisted them in the relocation of the informal settlers.

The informal settlers were relocated to pave way for the implementation of government project in the coast of Barangay Sta. Lucia, this city.

Pulmones said the construction of the remaining houses for the informal settlers “in need” is ongoing at the relocation site. (PNA)
