Proposal to fence Pasil fish market hits a snag
The Freeman
|April 25, 2025
A P9.6 million proposal to install a perimeter fence around the Pasil Fish Market has met resistance from several Cebu City councilors.
-
The matter was brought before the City Council when Councilor Jerry Guardo, Chairperson of the Committee on Infrastructure, pushed for the approval of a resolution authorizing Mayor Raymond Alvin Garcia to enter into a construction agreement with Aloja Builders and Realty. The agreement, valued at P9,695,401.13, is supported by a resolution from the Bids and Awards Committee and has been reviewed by the City Legal Office.
During the council’s regular session, Councilor Jocelyn Pesquera questioned the necessity of fencing the market. She warned that while a fence might provide security, it could also restrict the already limited space in the area.
“Doing so may constrict the overall vicinity,” she said, highlighting the worsening parking situation near the market.
