Members of the Sanggunian conducted its regular session today using Zoom, a remote meeting software to comply with social distancing rules to stop the spread of the coronavirus.
In its amended internal rules of procedure approved last March, the body authorized the use of technology to help its members obtain information and share it with the people of Dagupan during this crisis, and it will continue to do so to fulfill its responsibilities as elected city officials.
Vice Mayor Dean Bryan Kua said the Sanggunian will continue to leverage new and emerging technologies to follow social distancing guidelines and conduct its work remotely.
On the same regular session, the council adopted a resolution expressing its sympathies to the family of former punong barangay and Liga President Joaquin Reyes who passed on today.
