DATE AND CIRCUMSTANCES

The PNP ladies transient/building which is located at Camp BGEN Vicente P Lim was proposed to be condemned and demolished. Subject building was constructed sometime late 1980s and had not undergone any major repair thus said building was suffering severe damages
and dilapidated. Restoration of ladies transient would cost much expenses therefore it is more practical to be categorized it as Beyond Economical Repair (BER) and be subjected to condemnation/demolition.

I CERTIFY that the loss, destruction, damage or unserviceability of the
articles of public property shown above, and/or on attached sheets, was
caused in the manner stated and without fault or neglect on my part, and
that each article listed with a view to elimination by destruction has been

FINDINGS. – We have examined all available evidence as shown in exhibits ___ to ___ and as indicated below have personally investigate the same and it is our belief that the subject building
listed herein and/or on attached sheets, has a property record cost of P1,600,000.00.
On the basis of careful perusal inspection and evaluation, the two (2) storey PNP Transient building is Beyond Economical Repair (BER) and severely damaged which is deemed worthless for
public use after it has served/used since its construction sometimes in the late 1980s.

It would be more practical and beneficial for the Police Regional Office CALABARZON to demolish the old damaged/dilapidated transient building by reason that the present status of the
building is not suitable for occupancy.
