The Parañaque City government has been illegally collecting fees for health certificates and building permits without the supporting ordinance, a gross violation of the Local Government Code, the Commission on Audit has found.
In its latest annual audit, the commission declared that the Parañaque City Hall has no legal basis for charging fees for sanitary inspection, health certificates, building permits, burial permits, electrical permits, laboratory permits and hospital permits because the Sangguniang Panlungsod has not passed ordinances authorizing the collection of those fees.
Asked by the commission, city health officials explained that the rates were carried over from past administrations and were the same ones imposed 25 years ago.

Malay stressed that the campaign of Bernabe for the city’s top post is anchored on the need to establish a new mission and vision for Parañaque so that the city can resurrect from the years of mismanagement and neglect by the outgoing city administration primarily in the area of waste disposal.
"The city is a veritable social volcano where a plague is most likely to originate due to the presence of deadly bacteria and microorganisms caused by the city administration’s obsolete waste management system," added Malay.
Malay said the periodic assessment being conducted by the Lakas-CMD showed that Golez is headed towards a clear victory with a wide margin over Marquez who continues to suffer from the negative effects of his breakup with popular TV host Kris Aquino.
