[Title] => DOJ: Mayors can’t impose sanctions unilaterally
[Summary] => Mayors of municipalities and highly-urbanized cities have no power to unilaterally impose administrative sanctions against erring elective officials who are facing administrative charges, the Department of Justice (DOJ) ruled.
While local chief executives are granted such power under Republic Act 7160, or the Local Government Code of 1991, the DOJ clarified that mayors still have to get the prior approval of their respective municipal or city councils.
