Dagdag na bagong fire station itatayo sa

MALAPIT nang magkaroon ng karagdagang istasyon ng bumbero ang Navotas City kasunod ng paglagda ng 30-taong usufruct sa pagitan ng pamahalaang lungsod at ng Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP).

Sa ilalim ng kasunduan, magagamit ng BFP ang 444-square meter lot sa Brgy. Navotas East para sa iminungkahing Navotas Central Fire Station at iba pang pasilidad.

Pinirmahan ni Mayor John Rey Tiangco ang kasulatan kasama si FCSupt Nahum B. Tarroza, Regional Director ng Bureau of Fire Protection–National Capital Region; FSupt Jude G. de los Reyes, City Fire Marshal; at Jayne B. Rillon, City General Services Officer.

“Preparation for this usufruct took us five years. Because of limited spaces in our city, we had to expropriate parcels of land for our new central fire station,” paliwanag ni Tiangco.

“Navotas has fire stations at Brgy. Sipac Almacen, Tangos North, and Tanza 1. Building an additional station would increase our efficiency in responding to emergencies, so we can prevent incidents that could claim lives and property,” dagdag niya.

Samantala, nagbigay din ang pamahalaang lungsod ng dalawang fireboats sa Navotas City Fire Station at isang patrol boat sa Bantay Dagat.

Dumalo din sa event si BFP-NCR Assistant Regional Director SSupt. Rodrigo N. Reyes, at Fire District 2 Fire Marshall Supt. Douglas M. Guiyab. (Richard Mesa)
