KIDAPAWAN CITY (Nov 19) – The Kidapawan city government granted the request of the management of Eva’s Hotel for another 15-day extension to find a contractor to demolish its damaged building, but also warned management they would take over the demolition if action is not taken soon.

Eva’s Hotel stands damaged after a strong earthquake in Kidapawan, north Cotabato, Thursday, Oct. 31, 2019. Engineer Alan Balgos, head of the Kidapawan City Demolition and Enforcement Unit , said they decided to give the management more time to enter into an agreement with a private contractor that would execute the demolition.

“We were told the hotel management and the private construction firm have yet to agree on the terms and conditions of the contract,” said Balgos. In a meeting on Monday, the KDCEU passed a resolution requesting the Sangguniang Panglungsod to allow City Mayor Joseph Evangelista to enter into a contract with a private firm that would spearhead the job.
