FORMER Cebu City mayor Tomas “Tommy” Osmeña has challenged the Cebu Provincial Government’s ownership of the lot along Osmeña Blvd. where the Cebu Bus Rapid Transit (CBRT) project is being implemented.During a press conference on Tuesday, March 5, 2024, he warned that if this fiasco continues, he will be forced to exercise his rights and reclaim the ownership of Osmeña Blvd., which had been donated by his late father Sergio “Serging” Osmeña Jr.Osmeña said Osmeña Blvd., which the CBRT traverses, and its surrounding premises used to belong to Cebu Heights Inc.He said his father was its president and principal stockholder.“My father gave the Province properties, in exchange for other properties, which my father did not get. Technically speaking, the deal was not valid,” Osmeña said.However, the Provincial Government under the administration of Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia earlier insisted that it owns portions of Osmeña Blvd. “We will see each other in court,” Osmeña said, referring to the Province’s claims.“It’s all part of the Cebu Heights (Inc.) and it’s owned 100 percent by my father. Even the part of the Fuente Osmeña (Circle) is owned by my father. I even have the title for it,” he said.If the Provincial Government insists on stopping the CBRT project citing its ownership of the lot, Osmeña said he will reclaim the property.Administrative Order 253Then President Carlos Garcia signed Administrative Order 253 on Oct. 7, 1957, where he exonerated Serging, who was then governor, and three others for dishonesty and grave misconduct in office allegedly committed in connection with the execution of a deed of exchange involving certain parcels of land by and between the Province and Cebu Heights.Garcia then withheld action on the deed of exchange executed in November 1954.The exchange involved three big lots of the Province and 14 smaller lots of Cebu Heights, which formed part of two national roads in Cebu City.Meanwhile, the former mayor reacted negatively to the two resolutions passed by the Provincial Board (PB) on Monday demanding the stoppage of the CBRT implementation, and the Feb. 21 motion of the Cebu City Council, pushed by City Councilor James Anthony Cuenco, which called for the suspension of scheduled civil works for CBRT Packages 2 and 3.He said the National Government will not heed the call of the PB and City Council to halt the project’s civil works.He said both PB and the council have “no teeth” to stop the project.Osmeña said stopping the project will not solve the problem, but only worsen it.The CBRT was Osmeña’s brainchild. He had pushed for it when he was still mayor and then congressman.During the press con, he said he envisioned the CBRT to alleviate the commuting woes of residents in Barangay Talamban and Bulacao going to and from the downtown area, citing that a dedicated bus lane will be beneficial to Cebuanos who cannot acquire motor vehicles.Discussions on the proposed BRT system started during his term.In 1997, Osmeña visited Curitiba, Brazil, where the first BRT was implemented in 1974.Possible repercussionsIn 2008, the Asian Development Bank, World Bank and Overseas Economic Cooperation Fund of Japan approved the project’s pre-feasibility study, according to Osmeña.He said stopping the CBRT may result in a negative credit rating for the Philippine Government in terms of foreign financing and funding agreements with international financial institutions.“The Philippine Government will never have an international bilateral agreement because if you do that you will be blacklisted from all donors and donations around the world,” Osmeña said. “They will not spoil their international credit rating just because Councilor Cuenco and some crazy Provincial Board members start ego tripping and say we should stop CBRT.”He pointed out that the CBRT was funded not only by the World Bank but also by the French Development Agency and the Philippine Government.The CBRT took 20 years to get off the ground.The entire CBRT system is composed of three packages:Package 1 consists of a 2.38-kilometer segregated bus lane with four bus stations and 1.15 kilometers of pedestrian improvements from the Cebu South Bus Terminal to the Capitol building.Package 2 features a 10.8-kilometer segregated bus lane with 13 bus stations, including a bus terminal at the South Road Properties, a roundabout facility in Cebu IT Park, and a depot in SRP.Package 3 includes the construction of a 22.1-kilometer feeder route, with 76 bus stops including feeder terminals in Barangay Talamban in Cebu City and in Talisay City. / EHP Is there a game that pays real money? Philippines GOV. Gwendolyn Garcia has called out the Cebu City Government for disrespecting and ignoring the territorial jurisdiction of the Cebu Port Authority (CPA) stipulated under Republic Act (RA) 7621 that created the port authority in 1992.In a press conference at the Provincial Capitol on Monday, April 8, 2024, Garcia said this was the first time that a local government unit (LGU), particularly the chief executive, had done so.She said no LGU, and not even Cebu City’s Office of the Building Official (OBO), had ever questioned CPA’s territorial jurisdiction over all baseports in Cebu and asked for building permits.She said she was shocked when the CPA told her that this was not the first incident that City Hall had instigated against the port authority.In the same press conference, CPA general manager Francisco Comendador III said personnel of the Cebu City Government “forcefully” intruded on CPA premises and fenced the area, temporarily stopping its ongoing wharf extension project at the back of the National Museum of the Philippines Cebu and across the Compania Maritime last April 1.The governor said she spoke to Department of Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista, who has jurisdiction over the CPA, about the incident and informed him of the Province’s stand on the matter.“If nobody stands up and says, ‘enough is enough,’ then this will go on because this act has been on going and each time will go bolder and more aggressive. The Office of the Mayor has proceeded with impunity because no one has spoken up,” Garcia said. Capitol’s legal consultant Rory Jon Sepulveda said Section 6 of RA 7621 clearly defines the territorial jurisdiction of the CPA that includes the baseport within the navigational waters of the province. Sections 7 and 9 (a) and (f) also authorize the CPA to implement developments within its territorial jurisdiction that will improve the port authority’s services. ImageSepulveda said the Provincial Government intervened to protect the image of Cebu, as the rift between the two parties is hurting the public’s perception of CPA, and might disrupt multimillion-peso economic activities that include the export and import of cargo to and from other domestic and international ports. Due to this, Garcia called upon the City Government to uphold the law and recognize CPA’s authority and jurisdiction over the Cebu baseport. Meanwhile, the CPA warned of legal action against some officials of the Cebu City Government following the latter’s forceful entry and fencing operation on port premises last April 1. Comendador said the CPA is yet to determine what cases to file against some City Hall officials, subject to the deliberation of the Cebu Port Commission, the governing body of the port authority. The target of the upcoming lawsuit will be those officials who partook in and who were behind the April 1 incident, he said.The “intrusion” was spearheaded by the OBO; Prevention, Restoration, Order, Beautification and Enhancement team; City Risk Reduction and Management Office; City Legal Office, and the city administrator. He said the port extension project secured all requirements in terms of procurement, adding that it falls within the Cebu baseport, which is part of the CPA’s jurisdiction. Hence, he said they have the authority to implement developments and improvements and condemn the recent action of City Hall. Last Friday, April 5, the CPA resumed civil works on the New Reinforced Concrete Deck Port Facility (Phase 1) at Berths 31-33 after it removed the fence railings last Wednesday, April 3.The City Government argued it enforced a cease and desist order against the ongoing project as it has not secured the necessary permits, such as building permits from the OBO, which is required by the National Building Code. However, the CPA insisted that the City Government has no jurisdiction over the port authority under its charter and existing laws, hence it did not need to secure a permit or ask the permission of the OBO. / EHP

HOMEOWNERS of Sunberry Homes in Sudtonggan, Barangay Basak, Lapu-Lapu City continue to complain about exorbitant water rates a year after raising the matter before the government.Now, they have a new axe to grind: they are accusing the developer of preventing them from using the subdivision’s facilities.On Wednesday, Feb. 14, 2024, the homeowners association sent a letter to the Department of Human Settlement and Urban Development (DSHUD) 7 Human Settlement Adjudication Commission to seek help. In the letter furnished to SunStar Cebu, residents asked the DSHUD 7 to instruct Contempo Property Holdings Inc., the developer, to cancel all outstanding balances on their water bills. They also asked the developer to hand over the management of the water supply for the subdivision, as well as all relevant records and documents related to it, to the homeowners association.The homeowners also demanded that the developer allow them to use the subdivision’s amenities and reconnect the electricity. They seek moral damages in the amount of P100,000 and P30,000 in legal fees.On Friday, Feb. 16, Antonio Dosado, one of the complainants, sent a text message to SunStar Cebu stating that Contempo continues to demand payment for water they consumed despite allegedly turning over control of the subdivision’s water supply to the homeowners association. The association had already implemented a minimum charge of P10 per cubic meter. He said several residents reported having yellowish water every morning despite the high cost of water.Dosado said their situation has gotten worse, as they have also been denied access to the subdivision’s facilities. He said they initially requested the DSHUD 7 to deploy a technical panel to inspect the subdivision, but the agency did not respond. This prompted them to send another request on Wednesday, he said.An official from Sunberry Homes Inc., who asked not to be named, said on Friday that management replied to the homeowners association’s letter last November.The official also clarified that Contempo Property Holdings Inc.is not involved in the Sudtonggan subdivision project. The official claimed that DSHUD 7 dismissed the case against them because Sunberry management and the homeowners association could not compromise. However, the official could not provide further details, saying their legal department would release an official statement.Last March, 63 homeowners from the subdivision accused the Sunberry management of charging 2,200 percent more than the Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) for their water of which supply was allegedly intermittent.The homeowners also claimed that water from the developer’s private deep well was occasionally murky and contained foreign articles. On the other hand, water from a third-party supplier was safe to use, but it cost more.Dosado had told SunStar Cebu that Sunberry management failed to tap a steady water supply from MCWD because it did not comply with the standard equipment. To compensate for the shortage, residents were supplied with domestic water from two sources: the developer’s private deep well in the subdivision and a third-party water distributor.A Sunberry official explained that the developer had no choice but to charge homeowners more because it had to secure clean water from third-party suppliers. The MCWD had informed them that there was no available water supply or source in the area. Sunberry initially supplied residents with water from a deep well, but the water quality was poor, prompting it to seek third-party suppliers.The management said only 30 percent of the total cost of water sourced from third-party suppliers was billed to the homeowners. It subsidized the 70 percent, including administration fees such as electricity cost during the distribution of water, manpower in charge, and weekly cleaning of the water tank.The management said the homeowners knew that the subdivision was not connected to MCWD before moving in. However, MCWD later advised them that they could apply for the waterline and apply for temporary bulk meter water.However, in its letter to the DSHUD 7 last Wednesday, the homeowners said this was not fulfilled due to inadequate and substandard piping systems in the subdivision. As a result, MCWD declined to furnish the developer with water.The homeowners said Contempo did lower the water rate to P123 per cubic meter, but it still costs more than water in neighboring subdivisions and even upscale real estate developments in Cebu. Sunberry management allegedly failed to provide a reasonable explanation for the continued high water cost despite the reduced charge.However, the developer continues to refuse to surrender water management responsibilities to the homeowners association. In response, the homeowners association formally demanded the transfer of water management through a letter and sought intervention from DHSUD for mediation and a mutually beneficial resolution.During the proceedings, the homeowners said the developer initially agreed to relinquish water management if the homeowners association settled outstanding water bills, which were calculated at P350 and P123 per cubic meter of consumption. The homeowners complied, and settled the entire amount.But up to now, the developer has failed to hand over water management to the homeowners association.

Gwendolyn Garcia earlier insisted that it owns portions of Osmeña Blvd. “We will see each other in court,” Osmeña said, referring to the Province’s claims.“It’s all part of the Cebu Heights (Inc.) and it’s owned 100 percent by my father. Even the part of the Fuente Osmeña (Circle) is owned by my father. I even have the title for it,” he said.If the Provincial Government insists on stopping the CBRT project citing its ownership of the lot, Osmeña said he will reclaim the property.Administrative Order 253Then President Carlos Garcia signed Administrative Order 253 on Oct. 7, 1957, where he exonerated Serging, who was then governor, and three others for dishonesty and grave misconduct in office allegedly committed in connection with the execution of a deed of exchange involving certain parcels of land by and between the Province and Cebu Heights.Garcia then withheld action on the deed of exchange executed in November 1954.The exchange involved three big lots of the Province and 14 smaller lots of Cebu Heights, which formed part of two national roads in Cebu City.Meanwhile, the former mayor reacted negatively to the two resolutions passed by the Provincial Board (PB) on Monday demanding the stoppage of the CBRT implementation, and the Feb. 21 motion of the Cebu City Council, pushed by City Councilor James Anthony Cuenco, which called for the suspension of scheduled civil works for CBRT Packages 2 and 3.He said the National Government will not heed the call of the PB and City Council to halt the project’s civil works.He said both PB and the council have “no teeth” to stop the project.Osmeña said stopping the project will not solve the problem, but only worsen it.The CBRT was Osmeña’s brainchild. He had pushed for it when he was still mayor and then congressman.During the press con, he said he envisioned the CBRT to alleviate the commuting woes of residents in Barangay Talamban and Bulacao going to and from the downtown area, citing that a dedicated bus lane will be beneficial to Cebuanos who cannot acquire motor vehicles.Discussions on the proposed BRT system started during his term.In 1997, Osmeña visited Curitiba, Brazil, where the first BRT was implemented in 1974.Possible repercussionsIn 2008, the Asian Development Bank, World Bank and Overseas Economic Cooperation Fund of Japan approved the project’s pre-feasibility study, according to Osmeña.He said stopping the CBRT may result in a negative credit rating for the Philippine Government in terms of foreign financing and funding agreements with international financial institutions.“The Philippine Government will never have an international bilateral agreement because if you do that you will be blacklisted from all donors and donations around the world,” Osmeña said. “They will not spoil their international credit rating just because Councilor Cuenco and some crazy Provincial Board members start ego tripping and say we should stop CBRT.”He pointed out that the CBRT was funded not only by the World Bank but also by the French Development Agency and the Philippine Government.The CBRT took 20 years to get off the ground.The entire CBRT system is composed of three packages:Package 1 consists of a 2.38-kilometer segregated bus lane with four bus stations and 1.15 kilometers of pedestrian improvements from the Cebu South Bus Terminal to the Capitol building.Package 2 features a 10.8-kilometer segregated bus lane with 13 bus stations, including a bus terminal at the South Road Properties, a roundabout facility in Cebu IT Park, and a depot in SRP.Package 3 includes the construction of a 22.1-kilometer feeder route, with 76 bus stops including feeder terminals in Barangay Talamban in Cebu City and in Talisay City. / EHP Who introduced soccer in the Philippines? .

GOV. Gwendolyn Garcia has called out the Cebu City Government for disrespecting and ignoring the territorial jurisdiction of the Cebu Port Authority (CPA) stipulated under Republic Act (RA) 7621 that created the port authority in 1992.In a press conference at the Provincial Capitol on Monday, April 8, 2024, Garcia said this was the first time that a local government unit (LGU), particularly the chief executive, had done so.She said no LGU, and not even Cebu City’s Office of the Building Official (OBO), had ever questioned CPA’s territorial jurisdiction over all baseports in Cebu and asked for building permits.She said she was shocked when the CPA told her that this was not the first incident that City Hall had instigated against the port authority.In the same press conference, CPA general manager Francisco Comendador III said personnel of the Cebu City Government “forcefully” intruded on CPA premises and fenced the area, temporarily stopping its ongoing wharf extension project at the back of the National Museum of the Philippines Cebu and across the Compania Maritime last April 1.The governor said she spoke to Department of Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista, who has jurisdiction over the CPA, about the incident and informed him of the Province’s stand on the matter.“If nobody stands up and says, ‘enough is enough,’ then this will go on because this act has been on going and each time will go bolder and more aggressive. The Office of the Mayor has proceeded with impunity because no one has spoken up,” Garcia said. Capitol’s legal consultant Rory Jon Sepulveda said Section 6 of RA 7621 clearly defines the territorial jurisdiction of the CPA that includes the baseport within the navigational waters of the province. Sections 7 and 9 (a) and (f) also authorize the CPA to implement developments within its territorial jurisdiction that will improve the port authority’s services. ImageSepulveda said the Provincial Government intervened to protect the image of Cebu, as the rift between the two parties is hurting the public’s perception of CPA, and might disrupt multimillion-peso economic activities that include the export and import of cargo to and from other domestic and international ports. Due to this, Garcia called upon the City Government to uphold the law and recognize CPA’s authority and jurisdiction over the Cebu baseport. Meanwhile, the CPA warned of legal action against some officials of the Cebu City Government following the latter’s forceful entry and fencing operation on port premises last April 1. Comendador said the CPA is yet to determine what cases to file against some City Hall officials, subject to the deliberation of the Cebu Port Commission, the governing body of the port authority. The target of the upcoming lawsuit will be those officials who partook in and who were behind the April 1 incident, he said.The “intrusion” was spearheaded by the OBO; Prevention, Restoration, Order, Beautification and Enhancement team; City Risk Reduction and Management Office; City Legal Office, and the city administrator. He said the port extension project secured all requirements in terms of procurement, adding that it falls within the Cebu baseport, which is part of the CPA’s jurisdiction. Hence, he said they have the authority to implement developments and improvements and condemn the recent action of City Hall. Last Friday, April 5, the CPA resumed civil works on the New Reinforced Concrete Deck Port Facility (Phase 1) at Berths 31-33 after it removed the fence railings last Wednesday, April 3.The City Government argued it enforced a cease and desist order against the ongoing project as it has not secured the necessary permits, such as building permits from the OBO, which is required by the National Building Code. However, the CPA insisted that the City Government has no jurisdiction over the port authority under its charter and existing laws, hence it did not need to secure a permit or ask the permission of the OBO. / EHP licensed online casinos HOMEOWNERS of Sunberry Homes in Sudtonggan, Barangay Basak, Lapu-Lapu City continue to complain about exorbitant water rates a year after raising the matter before the government.Now, they have a new axe to grind: they are accusing the developer of preventing them from using the subdivision’s facilities.On Wednesday, Feb. 14, 2024, the homeowners association sent a letter to the Department of Human Settlement and Urban Development (DSHUD) 7 Human Settlement Adjudication Commission to seek help. In the letter furnished to SunStar Cebu, residents asked the DSHUD 7 to instruct Contempo Property Holdings Inc., the developer, to cancel all outstanding balances on their water bills. They also asked the developer to hand over the management of the water supply for the subdivision, as well as all relevant records and documents related to it, to the homeowners association.The homeowners also demanded that the developer allow them to use the subdivision’s amenities and reconnect the electricity. They seek moral damages in the amount of P100,000 and P30,000 in legal fees.On Friday, Feb. 16, Antonio Dosado, one of the complainants, sent a text message to SunStar Cebu stating that Contempo continues to demand payment for water they consumed despite allegedly turning over control of the subdivision’s water supply to the homeowners association. The association had already implemented a minimum charge of P10 per cubic meter. He said several residents reported having yellowish water every morning despite the high cost of water.Dosado said their situation has gotten worse, as they have also been denied access to the subdivision’s facilities. He said they initially requested the DSHUD 7 to deploy a technical panel to inspect the subdivision, but the agency did not respond. This prompted them to send another request on Wednesday, he said.An official from Sunberry Homes Inc., who asked not to be named, said on Friday that management replied to the homeowners association’s letter last November.The official also clarified that Contempo Property Holdings Inc.is not involved in the Sudtonggan subdivision project. The official claimed that DSHUD 7 dismissed the case against them because Sunberry management and the homeowners association could not compromise. However, the official could not provide further details, saying their legal department would release an official statement.Last March, 63 homeowners from the subdivision accused the Sunberry management of charging 2,200 percent more than the Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) for their water of which supply was allegedly intermittent.The homeowners also claimed that water from the developer’s private deep well was occasionally murky and contained foreign articles. On the other hand, water from a third-party supplier was safe to use, but it cost more.Dosado had told SunStar Cebu that Sunberry management failed to tap a steady water supply from MCWD because it did not comply with the standard equipment. To compensate for the shortage, residents were supplied with domestic water from two sources: the developer’s private deep well in the subdivision and a third-party water distributor.A Sunberry official explained that the developer had no choice but to charge homeowners more because it had to secure clean water from third-party suppliers. The MCWD had informed them that there was no available water supply or source in the area. Sunberry initially supplied residents with water from a deep well, but the water quality was poor, prompting it to seek third-party suppliers.The management said only 30 percent of the total cost of water sourced from third-party suppliers was billed to the homeowners. It subsidized the 70 percent, including administration fees such as electricity cost during the distribution of water, manpower in charge, and weekly cleaning of the water tank.The management said the homeowners knew that the subdivision was not connected to MCWD before moving in. However, MCWD later advised them that they could apply for the waterline and apply for temporary bulk meter water.However, in its letter to the DSHUD 7 last Wednesday, the homeowners said this was not fulfilled due to inadequate and substandard piping systems in the subdivision. As a result, MCWD declined to furnish the developer with water.The homeowners said Contempo did lower the water rate to P123 per cubic meter, but it still costs more than water in neighboring subdivisions and even upscale real estate developments in Cebu. Sunberry management allegedly failed to provide a reasonable explanation for the continued high water cost despite the reduced charge.However, the developer continues to refuse to surrender water management responsibilities to the homeowners association. In response, the homeowners association formally demanded the transfer of water management through a letter and sought intervention from DHSUD for mediation and a mutually beneficial resolution.During the proceedings, the homeowners said the developer initially agreed to relinquish water management if the homeowners association settled outstanding water bills, which were calculated at P350 and P123 per cubic meter of consumption. The homeowners complied, and settled the entire amount.But up to now, the developer has failed to hand over water management to the homeowners association.
