BACOLOD City – Dynamic Builders and Construction Co., Inc. has been given six more months to collect the city’s garbage. The Sangguniang Panlungsod approved on Dec. 23 Acting Mayor Greg Gasataya’s request to extend the city government’s contract with the garbage hauler until July 1, 2016. The contract was supposed to end effective Dec. 31. Gasataya had said his request was based on suspended Mayor Monico Puentevella’s plan to extend Dynamic Builder’s contract. He said the plan was “reasonable” since the city government could not yet hold any bidding pending the approval of the 2016 annual budget. This time Dynamic Builders’ duties will be limited to garbage collection and hauling, and maintenance of the landfill in Barangay Felisa. Under the original contract, Dynamic Builders was supposed to build another garbage cell at the sanitary landfill. Acting Vice Mayor El Cid Familiaran, however, said the project was not implemented after the Commission on Audit issued a notice of disallowance on the purchase of the property where the landfill was built. On Nov. 2, Puentevella wrote Dynamic Builders president Ricardo Yanson Jr., saying he was planning to extend Dynamic Builders’ contract to six months because he was satisfied with the company’s performance. On Nov. 6, Yanson replied, saying the company unconditionally agrees with the city government’s plan./PN By MAE SINGUAY
