In a statement from Barangay BF Kagawad Noel Azarcon, he said that the Barangay Hall has been accepting applications since the first working day of the year.

“The administration would like all business owners to attend to this matter immediately to avoid any inconveniences that may hinder their normal business operations,” said Azarcon last week.

For those that have not renewed their business permits yet, here are the requirements:

I.              New Business

  1. Valid DTI certificate for Sole Proprietorship
  2. Valid SEC Certificate for Partnership and Corporation (with articles of incorporation)
  3. TCT or Tax Declaration
  4. Contract of Lease (if rented)
  5. 2”x2” Picture of Business Owner
  6. 4R Picture of Establishment (front view of shop/office including parking)
  7. Homeowners Association Endorsement (for non commercial areas)

II. Renewal Business

  1. Valid DTI certificate for Sole Proprietorship
  2. Valid SEC Certificate for Partnership and Corporation (with articles of incorporation)
  3. Previous Barangay Business Plate or Previous Barangay Clearance Papers
  4. Contract of Lease(if rented)
  5. 2”x2” Picture of Owner
  6. 4R Picture of Establishment (front view of shop/office including parking)
  7. Homeowners Association Endorsement (for non commercial areas)

The barangay registration, according to the kagawad is now more efficient and more importantly faster as they now employ a computerized system.

Azarcon, in behalf of Barangay chairman Jeremy Marquez, also reminded establishments along Aguirre and President’s avenues to make sure they have adequate parking spaces for their customers.

“This will lessen incidents of double parking and decongest the traffic along those said roads,” said Azarcon.

Paranaque City recently extended the payment of local business taxes, fees and charges without penalties and surcharges from January 20, 2012 to January 31, 2012 provided that the application for renewal of business permit has been filed at the Business Permits and Licensing Office on or before January 27, 2011 and the taxes, fees or charges due thereon have been assessed by the City Treasurer’s Office.

The Parañaque City government under the administration of Mayor Florencio M. Bernabe, Jr. has extended the deadline for the renewal of business permits for the Year 2012.

 

Following City Ordinance No.12-01, Series of 2012, the payment of local business taxes, fees and charges without penalties and surcharges is extended from January 20, 2012 to January 31, 2012 provided that the application for renewal of business permit has been filed at the Business Permits and Licensing Office on or before January 27, 2011 and the taxes, fees or charges due thereon have been assessed by the City Treasurer’s Office.

 

The extension was made to give establishments added time to prepare the required documents, likewise to accommodate the influx of investors and growing business population of the city. It is also intended to prevent the rush of last minute payments.

 

“As a kind and caring city government, we have adopted business-friendly programs. Apart from the deadline extension, the Parañaque City Government receives kudos for its one-stop shop set-up; fully-computerized system; and anti-fixer/red tape safeguards that guarantee fidelity, accuracy and speed of transactions; and the comfort our fully air-conditioned service lounges provide.”, said Mayor Jun Bernabe.

 

For the convenience of taxpayers, they will also be given parking priority at the Parañaque City Hall grounds.

 

Meanwhile, establishments are reminded that the City Treasury will only accept cash and manager’s or cashier’s checks written in favor of the City Treasurer of Parañaque as payment. Company administrators and representatives are also advised NOT to deal with fixers but instead report them to the Office of the City Mayor.

Here is a comment that we got from a Las Pinas resident and plastic dealer in Las Pinas:

I’m not againts in banning plastic in Las Pinas, even if I’m one of the distributors of plastic & Styro here in Las Pinas, kaya lang po biglaan ang announcement nila. Halos 80% ng residents even the merchants are not aware of this ordinance.

Hindi sila makapagbigay ng detailed kung ano ang bawal at hindi bawal. Ni wala silang malalaking banner to inform the people, buti pa nga laban ni Paquiao, every main road, overpass may malalaking tarpaulin na free ang manood. I’m comparing Las Pinas to Muntinlupa na malayo pa lang ang effectivity may massive information na ang mamamayan.

To the City government of Las Pinas, please give us full context of your guidelines kung ano talaga ang bawal detailed by detailed. I will give you an example. 3 oz.-12 oz plastic cups used by taho, icecream vendor, amviant vendor. Ice bag plastic, one of the source income ng pangkaraniwang household. Thin plastic used by carinderia for taking out foods?

What are they alternatives. The end users suffers a lot hindi dahil sa BAWAL na nga, kundi ano ang ipapalit nila kundi made of paper na halos 3x ang taas ng presyo na ibig sabihin tataas din ang costing ng tinda nila.

Please comment to our dear Mayor.
