The Supreme Court on Thursday announced that it has invalidated a Quezon City ordinance that reclassified a property used by the Manila Seedling Bank Foundation , which effectively deprived the foundation of its use.In a decision dated July 30, the Supreme Court En Banc found the QC ordinance to be ultra vires or beyond the local government unit’s scope of authority to issue.
A regional trial court later ordered the LGU to stop enforcing the ordinance on the property and to issue the foundation a clearance and business permit.The LGU, however, foreclosed and sold the property for the Foundation’s non-payment of real property tax.Though the foundation petitioned for prohibition and injunction, the RTC dismissed the petition, a ruling that was later affirmed by the Court of Appeals.This led to the present petitions before the SC.
