DESPITE initial challenges, the Lapu-Lapu City government collected a total of P80,520 on Wednesday, May 1, 2024, its first day of charging tourists a P100 environmental fee.
On the first day of implementation, Cuizon admitted that the city government faced challenges, including several island-hopping boat operators and guests choosing to dock and depart from the port in the neighboring town of Cordova to avoid paying the environmental fee. Cuizon said guests and tourists are not prohibited from docking and departing via the Cordova port; however, they will be charged the environmental fee if they visit sites, islets and islands within Lapu-Lapu City’s jurisdiction.
