July 24 Session

I have four items for today.

Up for 1st reading are:

Request for reconsideration from Smart re payment of local taxes which became the basis for the rejection of building permits for their proposed cell sites; and

Legislative authorization for the use of a city-owned lot for the site of the Barangay Business Center at Catalunan Pequeno.

Under suspended rules today, I intend to present two Resolutions:

To support the campaign to promote banana chips as snack food for children instead of "junk food;" and

To extend the City Council's greetings to the Iglesia ni Cristo (INC) on its 93rd founding anniversary.
