2. The council is committed to insuring that the community members
and resident are secured in their persons and property against
criminal elements.
It has been observed that one of the sources of criminality is the
teeming turnout of unrecorded boarders/ real estate lessees in the
barangay. Various cases of crimes against persons and properties
have been mostly attributed to boarders or real estate lessees since
they can run away easily from their temporary abode.
One solution that is seen by the council to reduce or eliminate these
criminal elements, is to monitor and ascertain the character of
individuals or persons who will apply as boarders or real estate
lessees in boarding houses or building spaces.
3. A primary step to achieve this goal is to mandate
Real Estate Lessors or Boarding House owners
and any other persons operating a similar
business to require lessees or occupants to
secure and submit a clearance from the last
barangay where they came from, together with a
completed personal data sheet or bio-data
with an attached identification picture
BEFORE they accept or maintain them in their
business.
4. SECTION 5. Responsibility of
Boarding House Owners/ Lessors.
The Boarding House owners or
Lessors are mandated to assume
these responsibilities:
5. a.) To secure permits for their businesses.
b.)To require their boarders or lessees to present
barangay clearances from the last place where they came
from, and attached completed personal data sheets/ bio-data
with recent identification pictures.
Provided that, old boarders or those who have been boarders
or lessees of a space, a building or part of the building which
is located at Barangay Pico for six months shall secure their
barangay clearances herein.
6. c.) To submit original duplicates of their boarders’ or
lessors’ clearances with said attached personal data
sheets/bio-data and identification pictures to the barangay
for its records.
d.) To keep personal records of his/her boarders/
lessees containing their clearances and personal data
sheets/bio data with their recent identification pictures.
e.) To assertively remind and make certain
boarders/lessees will obey other local ordinances or
existing laws of the barangay and even the municipality.
7. SECTION 6. Family Boarders/Lessees. A clearance
and a personal data sheet/ biodata with identification
picture from a member of the family which will wholly
represent the same shall suffice for the purpose of this
ordinance.
Provided, that house-helpers, maids, stay-in workers,
and other persons who stay with the residence of Family
boarders shall submit individual clearances and
personal data sheets/ bio data to the boarding house
owners/ lessors.
