IN celebration of October as Shelter Month, the Subdivision and Housing Developers Association-Central Visayas (SHDA-CV) decided to organize a series of activities aimed at empowering its 18 member-firms and addressing the region’s housing needs.
One is the formal signing of an agreement between SHDA-CV and regional heads of government agencies to demonstrate their commitment for the implementation of the One-Stop Shop (OSS) for developers.
The OSS, mandated by the government under Executive Order 45, is supposed to house satellite offices of the Housing and Land Use Regulatory Board, Land Management Bureau, Environmental Management Bureau, Department of Agrarian Reform, Department of Agriculture and Mines and Geosciences Bureau.
This is intended to speed up regulatory processes for housing projects and assist developers.
In Cebu, the OSS is located in the SHDA-CV’s office in the Cebu Business Park, Cebu City. It was launched last Sept. 11.
“Subdivision and housing developers will now have an easier time to process permits and licenses for their housing projects, (consequently) boosting the housing industry,” said SHDA-CV president Rey Ralota.
SHDA-CV opened the Shelter Month activities with a three-day seminar-workshop on processing and approval of subdivision and condominium papers last Oct. 5 to 7 in Bohol, as part of the group’s membership development program.
SHDA-CV members will attend an economic forum that focuses on housing on Friday. They will also participate in the Housing Fair and Trade Exhibit on Oct. 23 to 30 at SM City Cebu.
