Coop to PB: Let guv give lot

CEBU, Philippines - The Langub Kalunasan Multi-Purpose Cooperative has asked the Provincial Board to authorize Governor Hilario Davide III to execute a deed of donation over a lot it is currently occupying.

LKMPC chairman Antonio Canoy said Davide has already agreed to the donation of Lot 1411, a 30-square-meter property owned by the provincial government. 

Canoy has earlier asked the Capitol to donate Lot 1411, which was ordered demolished during the time of former governor, now third district Representative Gwendolyn Garcia. 

Tomorrow, the Regional Trial Court is set to conduct mediation and conciliation on the case filed by Garcia for the recovery of possession of the lot in dispute. 

Canoy earlier sent an open letter to President Benigno Aquino III complaining against Municipal Trial Court in Cities Branch 6 Judge Pamela Baring-Uy whom he accused of rendering unjust judgment on a civil case filed by Garcia.

The complaint of Canoy stemmed from the decision of Baring-Uy dated March 12, 2012 granting the Province of Cebu the recovery of the lot where the two-storey office building of the cooperative and a deep well were constructed.

The court ordered LKMPC to vacate the portion of the said property and to pay P500 a month as a reasonable value for the use and occupation of the property, starting from October 14, 2010 until the property is vacated. 

As defendant, the LKMPC claimed that the province made it appear that it intends to sell a portion of Lot 1411 when in truth it has none, even the passage of the two PB resolutions authorizing the governor to sell.  (FREEMAN)
