ANGELES CITY — Mayor Carmelo “Jon” Lazatin II on Nov. 10 led the distribution of land titles to the second batch of beneficiaries of the Informal Settler Families-Awarded Lots program of the city government.
In his message during the distribution held at the session hall of the legislative building at the city hall compound, the mayor told the 154 beneficiaries that the documents awarded them are not mere certificates but tangible testaments to legal ownership and long-term security they have longed for and they can on to their children.
Last July, land titles were awarded to 112 beneficiaries, comprising the first batch of distribution spearheaded by the Angeles City Human Settlements and Urban Development Office as part of the implementation of the BALE (Building Homes in Lots with Tenurial Security, Affordability, Livelihood, and Environmental Soundness) program, an initiative designed to provide long-term housing solutions and secure land ownership for beneficiaries.
With the help of law student practitioners from the Angeles University Foundation – School of Law, the beneficiaries were provided information on the steps for the transfer of titles and other legal documentation. Angeles CIO
