THE LOCAL government handed over some P29.36 million in cheque to the Zamboanga City Water District or ZCWD as part of its assistance to tens of thousands of bonafide concessionaires.
Mayor Beng Climaco said the P500 one-time cash subsidy to water concessionaires is part of the City Government's second wave of assistance during the coronavirus pandemic.
She said the subsidy will be credited to the account of all bonafide water concessionaires upon payment of their bill.
“This has been our promise to the people of Zamboanga and today this became a reality with the support of our ZCWD led by General Manager Leonardo Rey Vasquez and the (Chairman of the) Board led by Jose Vicente Atilano III,” Climaco said.
ZCWD executives received the cheque at City Hall during a simple ceremony. Also present during the ceremonial turnover of the cheque led by Vasquez and Atilano were Engineer Marli de Fiesta, Michael Carbon, Board Vice Chairman James Makasiar and Board Director Arnold Martin Atilano.
Vasquez said the ZCWD will deduct the P500 subsidy from the water bill of residential and semi-commercial accounts. And for those with water consumption of less than P500 a month, the remaining amount will be deducted in succeeding bills until the subsidy is consumed.
He said the deduction will be reflected in the consumers’ water bills and covered by an official receipt.
Climaco said a similar arrangement will also be made with the Zamboanga City Electric Cooperative. (Zamboanga Post)
