Davao City has begun construction of the Balai Calinan project, aimed at providing affordable housing for low-income residents. The initiative includes 630 socialized housing units under the city's Public Rental Transitory Scheme. The project marks a significant step in addressing housing challenges in the region.
The new housing units are designed to offer temporary shelter to those in need, with priority given to vulnerable groups such as the elderly and disabled. Officials emphasized the importance of the project in improving living conditions and promoting social stability. The scheme also includes support services to help residents integrate into the community.
Construction of the Balai Calinan is expected to be completed within the next year. The city government has stated that the project aligns with national efforts to increase access to affordable housing. Local leaders have praised the initiative as a model for other cities facing similar challenges.
The project reflects Davao City's commitment to social welfare and urban development. It is part of a broader strategy to enhance public services and improve quality of life for residents.
