MAYOR JAVI LEADS GROUNDBREAKING OF THREE NEW PROJECTS IN VICTORIAS
Victorias City Mayor Javier Miguel Benitez led the Groundbreaking Ceremony for three new projects in the city, including the New Victorias Motorpool Facility and two new Child Development Centers, on April 15.
The New Victorias City Motorpool Facility will rise at Hda. Ofelia, Barangay XIV, Victorias City.
The facility is designed to provide ample space for the maintenance, repair, and storage of city vehicles—ultimately improving the efficiency of fleet operations and meeting the growing transport and logistical needs of Victorias.
In his message, Mayor Javi explained that he recognized the long-overdue need for a new motorpool to enable the city to procure additional service vehicles to address various operational requirements.
The mayor also shared his vision of acquiring electric vehicles in the future for a more eco-friendly approach to logistical transportation within Victorias.
“Pwede kita makapatindog sang progressive, forward-looking motorpool that can cater even to electric vehicles,” Mayor Javi explained.
The New Motorpool Facility is a joint venture between contractors, Supreme ABF Construction & Construction Supply Co. Inc. and EMR Builders & Development Corporation.
The contractors were represented by Paolo Rojas, Pauline Antoinette Saldaña, Engr. Fritz Baguna, and Engr. Renico Jason Baylon.
Punong Barangay Angelo Dorado of Barangay XIV and the Barangay XIV Council were also present during the ceremony.
Meanwhile, two new Child Development Centers will soon rise at Villa Victorias, Barangay XIII.
The project aims to provide a secure and conducive learning environment for young learners, funded through the Special Education Fund.
Mayor Javi underscored the importance of providing early learners with both financial and developmental support to ensure they are not left behind and are equipped to excel.
“Nalipay gid ko nga ang aton daycare centers ginahatagan man importansya, kay sa aton paglibot, nakita gid naton nga may mga barangay nga nagakinahanglan gid sang suporta.”
“Dako gid akon pagpati nga ang aton paghatag suporta sa mga kabataan isa ka crucial gid nga investment—not only in Victorias City but in the Philippines,” he added.
Mayor Benitez emphasized that the initiative is a testament to Victorias City's continuing commitment to its Inclusive Education Agenda.
The Child Development Centers in Villa Victorias are being constructed by TMTC Construction & Supply Corporation.
Select Child Development Workers joined the ceremonial signing of plans, time capsule dropping, and groundbreaking ceremony alongside Mayor Javier Miguel Benitez and members of the City Council.
City department heads, led by City Administrator Atty. Lindolf De Castro, were also in attendance. *
