In a late-night announcement on Monday, July 6, Labella said that City Administrator Floro Casas Jr. has already been tasked to facilitate the release of the financial aid that the barangays can use for the distribution of more relief goods to its residents. This will already be the second time that the city provided cash aid to the barangays since it was placed under enhanced community quarantine on March 28 following the spike of cases of the coronavirus disease here. During the first release, the city government gave out assistance ranging from P1 million to P3 million that was determined based on the barangay’s population.
The allocation, according to the city’s Public Information Office, will be released starting this week as soon as all documentary requirements are complied with in accordance with audit rules.
