Progress of the project (new church construction):
We have submitted the papers - technical designs to the engineering office of the Manila City Hall to get the building permit and we are waiting for their evaluation regarding the payment of taxes. We had an appointment with Mayor A. Lim and he assured us of a big discount when it comes to the payment of taxes.
We have already chosen and signed the contract with the company (LC BUILDERS & DEVELOPERS, INC.) that will do the work of the piles – 210 piles, with a cost of around 10 million pesos. It is expensive but necessary for the construction work due to the type of soil that we have here in Tondo and the location which is near the sea. They have started the testing work (see photos).
At the same time we are in the process of selecting the company for the foundation (General contractor). Immediately after Easter we will make the final decision on this and start the purchase of materials for the foundations.
This is for us Phase one and this is what we can do with our limited funds.
