Filinvest vs The Davao City Council
July 22nd, 2008 at 11:22 pm (Environment, Davao City)
Filinvest Land has taken a shot against the Davao City Council for allegedly favoring Ayala Land. Filinvest has complained that the council has been dragging its feet in approving Filinvest’s request for land reclassification even though it has fully supported Ayala Land’s plans in the city.
What Filinvest fails to point out is that their request is to reclassify a land located over an aquifer. And the reclassification is to convert the land from a “Protected Low Density Residential Zone” to “Protected Medium Density Residential Zone.” This request has already been denied by the City Council citing the importance of preserving the area as one of the main sources of tap water of Davao City.
