Reminders from Mayor James “Bong” Gordon Jr.

Mayor Gordon has reminded all city government offices, including the local police to make the necessary arrangements and take precautionary measures in connection with the school opening and the coming rainy season.

“Nagbukas na naman ang eskwelahan, dagsa na naman ang mga bata sa lansangan kaya’t dapat na lalong maging masipag ang ating mga traffic enforcers sa pag alalay sa mga batang tumatawid sa ating mga lansangan,” paalala ni Mayor Gordon sa Office of Traffic Management and Public Safety (OTMPS). “ Isa pa ring dapat pagtuunan ng pansin ay ang paglalagay ng karagdagang safety measures sa kagagawa pa lamang na overpass walkway sa harap ng Olongapo City Elementary School (OCES) bago ito tuluyang buksan at gamitin ng ating mga mamamayan, lalo na ng mga mag-aaral, upang masigurong hindi ito pagmumulan ng mga aksidente” Mayor Gordon added.

Mayor Gordon also has ordered all Barangays and the Environmental Sanitation Management Office (ESMO) to continue their diligent effort in keeping the environment clean especially the canals, to help lessen or prevent the occurrence of flooding when the rainy season sets in. The citizens of Olongapo are also encouraged to help with this effort to keep the city clean and green. “Hangga’t maaari ay ayaw na nating maulit ang nangyaring mga pagbaha ng nakalipas na taon, kaya’t tayong lahat ay dapat maging responsable at sinupin natin ang sarili nating mga bakuran”, Mayor Gordon said in closing.
