Cebu City Mayor Nestor Archival expects that within two months, residents of Barangay Busay should finally have access to clean, running water through the Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD).

This came when Archival led the MCWD’s pipe-laying ceremony at the National Housing Authority (NHA) Chapel last Monday.

Archival emphasized that the project must deliver relief to families who have endured decades of water scarcity.

There are 330 households under the Busay Heights Home Owners Association (BHHOA), many of whom rely on daily water deliveries from the Department of Public Services (DPS).
