ANGELES CITY – Mayor Carmelo ‘Pogi’ Lazatin Jr. conducted an ocular inspection at the ongoing construction of the soon-to-rise three-storey building at the Pampang Public Market on January 16, 2024, after his distribution of reusable bags to vendors and market-goers.
The three-storey building will have 200 new stalls intended for the dry goods vendors who were affected by a fire that broke out in the market in November 2020.
Lazatin shared that the soon-to-rise building will also have steel parking lots on the second and third levels, while the ground level is solely for the dry goods stalls and the food court.
Additionally, the side wing of the building will house mini-eatery establishments or ‘carinderia’ scattered in the public market.
The city government has allotted ₱243,900,426.61 for the project.
Among the works to be done for the building are demolition and disposal; structure and excavation; earth filling and compaction; structural concrete and structural steel and framing support.
Phase 1 of the construction of the said building is expected to be done by July 2024.
