BAGUIO CITY: City Engineer Edgar Victorio Olpindo has requested the City Mayor's Office's Special Services Division under Officer in Charge Michelle Agbuya to help inform and encourage barangay officials to promptly consolidate their existing drainage system plans to the City Engineering Office (CEO).

In his letter dated Aug. 2, 2023, Olpindo said that the city government is currently in the process of developing a comprehensive Drainage Master Plan (DMP) that aims to address the Summer Capital's drainage challenges and create a robust and sustainable system to manage water flow effectively, especially during heavy rains and monsoon seasons.
