THE Bacolod City Council passed the amendments to the city's Market Code.
Councilor Caesar Z. Distrito, chairman of the committee on markets and slaughterhouse, authored the ordinance and co-authored by Councilor El Cid Familiaran. City Ordinance 160 or the Market Code of Bacolod City, was amended because the trust fund as provided in the ordinance is not enough to maintain and rehabilitate the public markets. Section 48 was amended in order to have a separate trust fund for each public market and to use the funds solely for the maintenance and rehabilitation of the public markets and not to be used as salaries of casual employees. Councilors Distrito and Familiaran had visited the public markets several times and they have observed that the public markets have not been maintained and are very dirty. The amended ordinance assures that every public market shall have their separate trust funds. In every collection they make, 50 percent will be allocated to the said trust fund which will be for the maintenance of the market where the collection was made. Carla N. Canet Sun Star Bacolod
