THE Bacolod City Council passed on first reading a proposed amendatory ordinance that seeks to establish a parking area at the Burgos public market.
The proposal amends a portion of Section IX of the Comprehensive Traffic Code of Bacolod City to designate another parking area on the west side of Hilado Street, between Burgos and Galo streets. Proponent Councilor Caesar Distrito, chairman of the City Council Committee on Markets and Slaughterhouse, said that the Traffic Code of Bacolod City designates a parking space only on the east side of Hilado Street, “which is not enough to accommodate the people who regularly visit the market.” He added he proposed the ordinance following complaints of market vendors on the strict ‘no parking’ policy being implemented by local traffic enforcers, “which drove away their costumers and greatly affected their sales. This (proposal) will allow them to park on that area without being apprehended.” The proposal is co-authored by Councilor El Cid Familiaran. Carla N. Canet Sun Star Bacolod
