THE ZAMBOANGA City Inter-Agency Compliance Team (IACT) has closed a shop selling personal care products for violating the quarantine guidelines set by the government and warned establishments illegally operating or those without necessary permits.
The IACT, chaired by City Administrator Apple Go, said they will continue to strictly implement the quarantine guidelines and all existing laws.
She said IACT focal persons have reported their accomplishments a week after Mayor Beng Climaco signed the Executive Order 568-2020 creating the IACT as a response measure to the coronavirus pandemic.
Go said the IACT focal persons are tasked to assess compliance of the quarantine guidelines by the different sectors.
The IACT focal persons are Business Permits and Licensing Officer Benjie Barredo for Business Establishments Compliance Team; Albert Santa Teresa for the Roving Patrol Compliance Team; and Assistant City Administrator Cesar Raz for the Transport Compliance Team.
Barredo confirmed that they have closed one shop which is not allowed to operate under the general community quarantine guidelines or GCQ. He said they also inspected over a dozen establishments and market area in downtown Zamboanga. Each establishment was given GCQ guidelines and checklists and instructed its owners to strictly comply by it.
Santa Teresa and Raz also reported to IACT that over 170 people had been issued citation tickets for quarantine guidelines, mostly apprehended for not wearing face mask which is mandatory when outside of residence and not having a quarantine pass, and for using tampered quarantine pass.
Seven motorcycles were also impounded for various violations of traffic laws and ordinances.
More than 100 public utility drivers were also given citation tickets for not wearing of gloves and not observing social distancing, overloading of passengers, and having no quarantine pass. Others had no valid driver's license and cited for reckless driving.
Go said the IACT teams are composed of the following: City Health Office, City Treasurer's Office, City Engineer's Office, City Hall Community Police Action Center, Bureau of Fire Protection, City Planning and Development Office, and the Office of the City Environment and Natural Resources.
And also the Office of the City Veterinarian, Office of the City Agriculturist, Department of Trade and Industry, Department of Labor and Employment, the Task Force Ordinance, City Police Mobile Patrol Group, Task Force Zamboanga, Office of the Barangay Affairs, Liga ng mga Barangay, Zamboanga City Integrated Bus Terminal, Tricycle Adjudication Board, Land Transportation Franchise Regulatory Board, Land Transportation Office, and the Traffic Management Group.
