There is little in our agenda today.

I voted for the Resolution to grant the Development Permit for the A. Pizzaro Village Homeowners Association socialized housing project located at Barangay Panacan containing an area of 16,287 square meters.

I voted for the Committee Report as well as the Resolution on the Comprehensive Shelter Code of Davao City.

Discussion is still going on for the Ordinance itself.

1st Update - 10:27 a.m.
It's been 30 minutes now, veteran Councilor Vic Advincula is still interpellating the reporting chair Councilor Arnolfo Ricardo Cabling. The former sought clarification on the term "tenure security," among others provisions in the Code.

2nd Update - 11:08 a.m.
After another 30 minutes of debate, including my query on how to deal with "rural housing" in this proposed code, the item was finally deferred for the next session.

We are now under suspended rules and I just voted for budget proposals for 36 barangays.
