'Pay taxes or be blacklisted': Mayor Isko warns flood control contractors

Citing a report from the Office of the City Treasurer, Domagoso said contractors for 305 flood control projects have yet to pay the required contractors’ tax amounting to P247 million, with only nine projects compliant, having paid a total of P8.09 million.

The delinquent projects, he noted, cover prior years, 2024 carryovers, and 2025 allocations listed on the SumbongSaPangulo.ph website.

"What will be the action of the city? We will make sure, as a reminder and a warning to other government agencies, that these non-compliant companies will be blacklisted at the City Engineering Office and the Office of the City Building Official,” Domagoso told reporters.

The mayor stressed that “no permits will be issued” to blacklisted contractors.
