MAYOR NEIL LIZARES III MESSAGE - September 17, 2020

September 17, 2020

My fellow Talisaynons, due to the alarming number of positive cases in our city, our local IATF team together with our barangay officials met and discussed the strategic plans that we have to undergo to put a stop to these rising cases. Part of our discussion was the implementation of EO No. 36. I am asking for your cooperation which is very important now.

Under the Executive Order, the new curfew shall start from 8 PM to 4 AM. This will help us stop people from going out of their homes when not necessary.

We also discussed the concerns with regard our public market. I would like to let you all know that the entrance and exit of the Talisay Public Market shall be changed. The entrance shall now be at the back while the exit shall be the one facing Savemore. We will also allow only two hundred people at once inside the market. Tents will be set up for those who are waiting to be accommodated and there will be proper markers. In addition to the wearing of facemasks, vendors will be required to wear faceshields which the city will provide.

Finally, in order to ensure the safety of our marketgoers and vendors, marketgoers are also required to wear facemasks and faceshields upon entering the public market.

I am asking for your cooperation and understanding. I also urge you to please do not hesitate to report those who are not observing our rules to the authorities. Let us all be mindful of one another and follow health protocols at home and outside.
