City Mayor Dale Gonzalo “Along” Malapitan led the groundbreaking ceremony for the construction of the new Caloocan City Hall – North on Friday, August 11.

Owing to its unique situation among Metro Manila cities, Caloocan has two city halls for its north and south territories. When completed, the new North City Hall will serve as an upgrade to the facilities of the current one, and will be a complete replica of the South City Hall which was completed in 2017.

Mayor Along acknowledged the need for the construction of the new building to provide better services to the growing number of Caloocan residents.

“Inaasahan po natin na mas maraming mga mamamayan kayang pag-serbisyuhan ng iba’t-ibang kagawaran ng pamahalaang lungsod dahil mas malaki at mas maayos na mga pasilidad po ang hatid ng bagong city hall na itatayo natin sa North,” Mayor Along said.

Likewise, the City Mayor also noted that the new city hall project is just one of the efforts of the city government to make services accessible to the people and called on his constituents to help in taking care of it once constructed.

“Sisikapin natin na agad na mapapakinabangan ng lahat ang bagong North City Hall, kaya naman po tinatawagan ko rin ang mga Batang Kankaloo na tumulong sa pangangalaga ng proyekto nating ito,” the Mayor stated.

“Sa pagtatayo po ng bagong city hall, asahan niyo po na mas mailalapit pa sa ating mga kababayan ang aksyon at malasakit ng pamahalaang lungsod,” the local chief executive added.
