Regular inspections were recently conducted in boarding houses, apartments, and other related establishments to ensure compliance, safety, and proper standards for our community.

At the same time, our office is actively introducing the Nano Enterprise Ordinance to small business owners with an annual capital of less than ₱250,000. This program aims to encourage unregistered or first-time applicants to secure their permits, helping regulate their operations while providing guidance and support from our office. Through this initiative, we aim to uplift and empower our local entrepreneurs as part of a growing and inclusive economy.
