THE Office of the Ombudsman has dismissed Mandaue City Mayor Jonas Cabungal Cortes from service after finding him guilty of grave misconduct for allowing the continuous operation of a cement batching plant without the necessary business and environmental permits.The Ombudsman’s ruling followed a complaint filed in October 2022 by residents Ines Corbo Necesario and Julita O. Narte, who claimed that Cortes failed to act on Suprea Phils. Development Corp.
The Ombudsman found that the operation of the plant continued without the necessary permits, creating a public disturbance and health risks to the community.Although Cortes eventually issued a Mission Order in March 2021 for the Mandaue City Environment and Natural Resources Office to inspect Suprea’s operations, the Ombudsman emphasized that this action came too late and only focused on environmental factors.
