Mayor OK’s temporary site for market vendors

By Paul Rillorta

BAGUIO CITY – Due to cooperation showed by Block 4 vendors to voluntarily demolish and vacate their stalls last year, Mayor Mauricio Domogan approved their request for a temporary vending site to continue their business within the city market.

Domogan signed Baguio City Market Task Force resolution 04-2011 designating the perimeter area of block 4 as a temporary vending site for displaced block 4 occupants.

Prior to its approval, Domogan ordered the Baguio Market Task Force to inspect and assign a relocation site for vendors affected by the block 4 rehabilitation.

At least 87 vendors can be accommodated in the perimeter of block 4 as per reports by the Task Force which recommended the area suitable as a relocation site.

Vendors who are included in the 2006 and 2011 block 4 surveys will be assigned vending spaces except for occupants who used their stalls as bodegas and eateries prior to demolition.
