A resolution requesting the City Legal Office and its Enforcement Unit, the Bureau of Fire Protection and Bacolod City Police Office through the Office of the City Mayor to implement City Ordinance No. 511, Series of 2009 regulating the manufacture, sale and use of firecrackers and pyrotechnics in Bacolod City, was approved by the Sangguniang Panlungsod Wednesday.
The resolution authored by Councilor El Cid Familiaran, chairman of the SP Committee on Peace, Security and Jail Management, said that among the positive things that the Christmas celebration brings is that it stimulates business in the city and provides more benefits or business opportunity to the people. It said these businesses also involve the sale of firecrackers and pyrotechnics. However, the manufacture, sale and use of firecrackers and pyrotechnics pose danger, not only to the buying sector, but to the general public and should be strictly regulated through existing laws. To prevent untoward incidents that may cause fire due to fire crackers and pyrotechnics, the enforcement of C.O. No. 511 that prescribes the place and imposes regulation for the manufacture, sale and use of firecrackers and pyrotechnics in the City of Bacolod, should be strictly implemented, it added.*CGS THE VISAYAN DAILY STAR
