TOLEDO CITY GOVERNMENT FACILITATES CONSULTATION WITH DAS HOMEOWNER'S ASSOCIATION TO ADDRESS BOUNDARY DISPUTES AND PROPERTY CONCERNS
TOLEDO CITY, CEBU | October 13, 2026 — The City Mayor’s Office, through the Toledo City Urban Poor Commission (TCUPC), headed by Executive Director Atty. Jeah Jean E. Gacang, conducted a consultation meeting with the Don Andres Soriano Homeowners Association (DASHA) in Barangay DAS, Toledo City, to address boundary disputes, property encroachments, and other concerns involving Lot No. 6367.
The consultation was attended by Engr. Dindo Elimino, Survey Team Head of the City Engineering Office, and Hon. Jeffrey Borja, Chairperson of the Sangguniang Panlungsod Committee on Urban Poor Affairs, together with his staff. Also present were Barangay Councilors Basadre and Omayan, representing Barangay Captain Marvin Prahinog.
During the meeting, residents raised concerns and sought clarifications regarding property boundaries, encroachments, and possible remedies. These matters were discussed and addressed by the panel headed by Atty. Gacang, emphasizing proper documentation, coordination, and collective action in resolving the issues.
As a proposed remedy, a boundary survey by a licensed Geodetic Engineer was recommended to establish and verify the property boundaries. DASHA took the initiative to consult its members and conduct a vote on whether to engage a private Geodetic Engineer or seek assistance from the City Government.
Following the consultation and voting, all attendees and a majority of the residents expressed their consent to have the boundary survey conducted by the City Government. Accordingly, DASHA approved and passed a resolution formally requesting the City Planning and Development Office (CPDO), with the assistance of the City Engineering Office, to undertake the survey.
The TCUPC likewise extends its sincere appreciation to the Barangay DAS officials, headed by Barangay Captain Marvin Prahinog and represented during the consultation by Councilors Basadre and Omayan Omayan, for their support and cooperation in facilitating the meeting and addressing community concerns.
The initiative underscores the importance of community participation, interoffice coordination, and constructive dialogue in pursuing orderly, transparent, and lawful solutions to housing and property-related concerns.
