Bayambang municipal hall annex completed

A shining jewel in the crown of glory of Mayor Ricardo M. Camacho's first term, the municipal hall annex has just been completed. It is a munument to the close cooperation between his office and the Sangguniang Bayan.

Built at a total cost of P28-million, construction of the two-storey imposing edifice was started in August 2007.

Funds for the construction of the annex building came from municipal funds and loans. It will be the new home to the Sangguniang Bayan, the LGU departments, the Municipal Trial Court, the DILG, among others.

This is the first major improvement to the local government seat.

The main municipal building was constructed in 1937 during the administration of then Municipal President Enrique M. Roldan and Vice President Zacarias Junio.

Except for moving partition walls, it was untouched until the administration of Mayor Leocadio C. de Vera when a visitors' waiting area was constructed on the front part of the building.

The Mayor will continue to hold office in the main building which is planned to be refurbished. The public library will remain there too.*
