BASAK Barangay Captain Vicente Dayanan called on Mandaue City Mayor Jonas Cortes to rehabilitate the drainage system along the Mandaue North Road, following the heavy flood that struck one of his sitios early Saturday morning.
The flood that affected about 150 families in Sitio Riles was triggered by the rush of water from five neighboring barangays during a heavy downpour, Dayanan told Sun.Star Cebu yesterday.
These barangays are Cubacub, Pagsabungan, Canduman, Tabuc and Casili.
Dayanan said the water from these barangays spilled over to the sitio because the drainage along the Mandaue North Road could no longer take it in.
The water-soaked sitio is a low-lying area, said Dayanan, who rushed to the area early Saturday morning to check on the situation of the affected residents.
An open canal, Dayanan said, is presently being constructed, in a joint effort among Barangays Basak, Pagsabungan and Tabuc. - source: Sun Star
