Village chief hits Pamintuan for ignoring city businessmen
ANGELES CITY–A village chief here slammed Mayor Edgardo Pamintuan for snubbing business organizations and other local stakeholders during the hearing of the city budget for 2013.
In a local radio show, Barangay Claro M. Recto Chairman Valentino Lagman hit Pamintuan for neglecting to invite stakeholders to the budget hearing, which was held on December 17, 2012, and failing to hear out stakeholders’ comments on the 2013 budget.
“Ang mga businessmen ay nagsisilbing ‘backbone’ ng ekonomiya ng ating siyudad kaya mahalaga na marinig ang kanilang panig sa usapin ng city budget dahil sila ay isa sa mga pinaka-apektado dito,” Lagman said.
Lagman made the statement following the letter sent by several business organizations to Pamintuan, urging the city government to revise the city budget, particularly the section on business taxes and licenses, so that it may reflect the actual collection for the year 2011.
In the letter, the Metro Angeles Chamber of Commerce, Inc., (MACCI) justified their call for budget revision by reasoning that the city was not able to realize its budgeted revenue for business taxes and licenses for the year 2012, amounting to P400 million, thus, it is “more realistic” to reduce the 2013 budget.
Lagman also hit Pamintuan for holding the budget hearing session in a restaurant in Barangay Balibago and not at the city’s session hall.
“Ang pinangbabayad nila sa restaurant ay nanggaling sa mga mamamayan at negosyante,” Lagman said adding that, “Mayroon namang session hall na ginawa talaga para sa mga meeting ng city council kaya bakit pa kailangang gawin ang session sa restaurant?”
The letter in question, dated December 21, 2012, was signed by 13 business organizations and other stakeholders, who are all members of MACCI.
In an earlier statement, City Administrator Dennis Albert Pamintuan said the budget increase from P1.2 billion in 2012 to P1.3 billion for 2013 was necessary.
Pamintuan said some from the additional budget will be used to the last tranche of the Salary Standardization Law (SSL) and the transfer of the City College of Angeles from its temporary location at the City Library to its new campus in Barangay Pampang.
Some signatories to the MACCI letter have also denied signing the letter. ● Charlene A. Cayabyab
