BAGUIO CITY – Ten shanties illegally built within Camp 8 watershed were dismantled on Oct. 10, 2023 by the City Demolition Team.
Engr. Donald Gas-ib, head of the investigation and demolition division of the City Buildings and Architecture Office (CBAO) said this is pursuant to Demolition Order No. 28-2023 issued by Mayor Benjamin Magalong.
He stated that a total of 17 illegal shanty-structures were identified in the area, with seven having been voluntarily demolished by their owners earlier.
On October 13, 2023, a two-story structure in Pinget Barangay was demolished, as it was also subject to a separate demolition order.
Gas-ib said the building is located within an alley that is part of the right-of-way of a private lot.
The team was assisted by the Baguio City Police Office in both demolition activities.
The operations are part of the continuing aggressive campaign against squatting all over the city.
