CITY OF SAN FERNANDO, Pampanga – Governor Lilia G. Pineda led the provision of P105 million development fund to the mayors and treasurers of the 19 towns and 2 cities of the province.
Each town and city is set to receive P5 million to be used for the infrastructure and other developmental projects of their respective areas for 2013.
According to Pineda, the funds were released to help facilitate the processing of projects per municipality and city.
“Each mayor knows best what is needed for their respective areas thus; we are letting them choose the projects needed to be prioritized and funded,” Pineda disclosed.
The governor also added the simultaneous implementation of projects in every municipality and city is crucial for the further improvement of the province.
“The mayors, in coordination with their municipal engineers, should utilize their resources and should not rely solely on our provincial engineers since they also have their own projects to handle,” Pineda stressed.
