Summary
  • Mayor Thadeo Jovito “Jonkie” Ouano ordered Mandaue City to rush drainage upgrades and river cleanups to protect flood-prone communities ahead of the upcoming southwest monsoon season.
  • Excavation delays caused by underground utility lines extended the completion date of a critical bypass drainage project in Barangay Tipolo from May to late June.
  • The City is launching a year-long, zero-cost Butuanon River dredging project to remove heavy siltation that causes the waterway to overflow into surrounding communities during heavy rains.
