P10.8 Million Supplemental Budget Approved

By a unanimous vote, the Sangguniang Panlungsod (SP) approved on Wednesday the much talked about supplemental budget requested by City Mayor Dan Lim.

While councilors who earlier challenged the request for additional budget have voted in favor of the fund release, they vowed it would be the last time that city lawmakers would be made to approve a budget request that is not supported by a program of works.

City Vice Mayor Jose Antonio Veloso himself declared during an interview over dyRD's top-rated "Inyong Alagad" on Thursday that government guidelines required of legislative bodies in approving budget requests must be strictly followed and complied by the requesting party.

Supplemental Budget No. 5, series of 2007, amounting P10,803,024 was endorsed by the mayor since October 3.

Veloso explained that contrary to claims that the SP delayed deliberations of the mayor's request, it was because there has been a demand for a program of works from the city engineer's office which was not promptly complied.

Likewise, Veloso, who chairs the SP committee on appropriations, had to assume as acting mayor for three weeks when Lim was in the United States for the Institute for Solidarity in Asia (ISA) global governance summit.

In fact, it was the city council which recommended that deliberations on the supplementary budget request be deferred until the vice mayor could reassume his post.

The supplemental budget intended for funding of the city's multiple intelligence program, payment of road lot (at Calceta and Rizal Streets), transportation vehicle for the City PNP, sports activities, repair and maintenance of city roads and early retirement package of city government employees.
