CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY -- Reelected Senator Cynthia Villar led the groundbreaking of a socialized housing project in the village of Balubal here Tuesday (May 28) under the City Housing and Urban Development Department (CHUDD) of the local government.
"There are about 40 two-story buildings that will be built in a lot owned by the city government in this hinterland village east of the city, wherein 24 units out of 40 has a floor area of 24 square meters from the total of 46,000 square-meter lot area," CHUDD department head, Engr. Ermin Stan Pimentel said.
Pimentel said the socialized housing program is intended for 960 informal settler families in the city, in partnership with the Housing and Land Use Regulatory Board's (HLURB) BALAI program. BALAI stands for Building Adequate, Affordable, and Inclusive Filipino communities.
In his speech, Mayor Oscar Moreno expressed his gratitude to Villar for facilitating the project through the latter's socialized housing initiatives in the Senate.
