Most of the developments in the foreland of the city of Lapu-Lapu do not have an off-site lease from the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources. File photo/CDN Richard Dicdican, head of land management II and head of Cenro`s Licensing, Patents and Deeds Department (LPDU), said the adoption of the regulation will not prevent his office from carrying out its functions, which include issuing pre-country leases. A: This is a type of lease application for alienable and available land of public property and government property available for agricultural purposes under applicable law. Pending the mayor`s actions regarding the approved ordinance, Amores said they are now conducting an assessment and inventory of coastal facilities that do not have pre-country leases. The Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources – Community Bureau of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR-CENRO) will continue to accept applications for forlethole leases, even if an order from the City of Lapu-Lapu requiring a moratorium on applications comes into effect. Other lease application – the type of application that covers either a combination of dry land (part of the shore), foreland or permanent underwater land, according to restrictions certified by PPA, PEA (now PRA), DOT and DPWH. B. Influx of informal settlers into the foreland areas Most investors, he said, were discouraged from pursuing their pre-country lease applications because it was difficult to get favorable approval from City Hall, especially city council members. “The problem is that once they finish building their structures, they would no longer process their pre-country lease application,” he said. The lease period is twenty-five years and may not be extended by more than twenty-five years at the government`s option. Even in the absence of a pre-country lease, most of the plaintiffs built their necessary structures in the three-meter-long easement, in violation of Executive Order 1067 or the Philippine Water Code. He said only 20 facilities have received a pre-country lease from their office, while about 75 applications are still pending, some of which were filed in the 1950s.

These include commercial applications, resorts, jetties, factory buildings and warehouses. Other requirements for the issuance of a pre-country lease are confirmations from the Ministry of Public Works and Highways, the Ministry of Tourism and the Cebu Port Authority. The need to regulate the use of estrans is the reason why members of the Lapu-Lapu City Council passed an ordinance by Councillor Ricardo Amores earlier this month, which provides for a moratorium on the application for forlethole leases and other miscellaneous applications. Dicdican said that once they can submit their application, CENRO will give them a preliminary permit that will allow them to build structures in coastal areas. “More than 50 percent of the facilities that still have demand waiting for our office have already built infrastructure in the pre-country areas and are already operating their business,” he said. Dicdican said his office accepts applications for pre-country leases, which they will later submit to DENR`s headquarters for approval.

If the moratorium is signed by Mayor Paz Radaza, it will prohibit institutions from having exclusive rights to the city`s coastal waters. The Supreme Court decision (G.R.
