bryan lina,
Improvements to some UPIS facilities continue in the next few weeks.
The renovation of the UPIS Bulwagan 3-6 is expected to begin as soon as Jesus Asuncion Builder, the project’s contractor, obtains the permit to start from the UP Office of the Campus Architect (OCA).
According to Assistant Principal for Administration (APA) Prof. Melanie Donkor, the refurbishments were rompted by invasive tree roots which caused cracks and ridges in the structure’s flooring. The Bulwagan shall be revamped so as to minimize potential future damage that may be caused by the tree roots. DENR did not permit the cutting of the tree.
The project is tagged at P2.6 million and funding will come from the P20 million budget allocated to UPIS for the construction and renovation of its facilities.
Entrances and exits to the 3-6 campus may be diverted in order to ensure safety during the renovation.
On the other hand, construction of the UPIS Gym is expected to finish on April 22, 2017.
Construction is now on its final stage with the exterior walls currently being covered with bricks and the flooring and interiors set to be furnished a few weeks from now.
Meanwhile, renovations of the UPIS Auditorium continue, with its walls currently being painted and prepared for soundproofing. Funding will come from the P20 million-budget allocated to UPIS for the capital outlay and realignment of the green perimeter fence while bidding for the new air conditioning units and theatre seats is still ongoing.
Since improvements are expected to take some more time, Recognition Day activities will be diverted to the NISMED. //by Bryan Lina and Chesca Santiago
