SAN JOSE, Antique – The local government of Sibalom allotted P3 million to light up streets around the municipality.
Town mayor Gian Carlo Occeña said the facilities around the town proper will provide light for locals who will stroll along the plaza on December for Christmas.
“I am giving priority to the lighting of the town proper,” Occeña added on Wednesday.
“I still do not know how many street lights would be installed,” he said.
The mayor added that the installation was also in response to insufficient streetlights around the area.
Aside from the lighting project, Occeña said he aims to purchase dump trucks for a P6-million allocation to be used in garbage collection among others.
He added the municipal government with the Municipal Environment and Natural Resources Office plans to collect recyclable waste materials such as plastic wares.
“We are working for Sibalom to become zero waste so dump trucks will also be used for garbage collection,” said Occeña.(With a report from PNA/PN)
