The new Bureau of Fire Protection building is now up for inauguration this month after the finishing touches were finally completed.

It was Mayor Juanario Item who requested the Sangguniang Bayan (SB) presided by Vice-Mayor Restituto Auxtero to allocate and release P148,000 for the concreting of the approach to the fire truck garage and fencing of the perimeters of the Bureau of Fire Protection office.

Works on t he concreting and fencing were started in August and completed at the end of November.

The BFP led by SFO3 Ricardo Garcia, municipal fire marshal, expressed gratitude to the LCE, and the SB for the realization of their projects.

The BFP used to hold office at the Municipal Hall building since 1982.

During his stint, the late mayor Gaudencio Artiaga provided a 344-square-meter lot near the municipal cemetery in barangay San Jose where the BFP can construct their own building.

The construction of the BFP building started during the leadership of Mayor Item.

The funding of the project came from the BFP central office amounting to P450T and another P100T from the LGU through the efforts of Mayor Item.
