Last Saturday afternoon, the two groups in our class on P205 – Project Development Planning has decided to check on the possible sites in the municipality of Pavia which is our LGU of study and wherein the project proposal will be located.

Me and my groupmates, Ma’am Mabel, Ma’am Robel, and Ma’am Vanessa are proposing a Multi-purpose center for the Pavia LGU wherein it will cater the local products and SMEs. We identified the core problem that is the absence of a venue to showcase Pavia’s ethnicity, social events, and local products. Because of the rapid development of infrastructures in the municipality in which the LGU is more focused on, this effects on the local culture and products being less prioritized. This center will be the venue that will somewhat mitigate that problem and will also become a source of a long-term revenue for the LGU.

We arrived at Brgy. Mali-ao, Pavia after about 30 minutes of travel and one of the Brgy. Kagawads there assisted and guided us to the place. it was the initial location which the other group of Sir Louie, Sir Arnold, Atty Chad and Sir Cyrus decided to locate their Municipal Slaughter House project. It was a narrow and muddy road to go inside but after that is a widespread grassy area that is near the Aganan river.

Here, the group scouted the area while enjoying the afternoon sun and estimated how wide the slaughterhouse would occupy. Group A and Group B represent!

After the short visit, we headed back to the Municipal Hall but not after we drop by Golden Treats pasalubong store located beside the highway. We bought a lot, like buko pie, egg pie, Mamon, and Maja Blanca.

We then proceeded to the Pavia DTI office that is located beside the municipal wet market. It also housed their LEIPO office and where Ma’am Mabel usually go to on a daily basis. We decided to eat there while resting and setting up the group discussion of the projects.

I enjoyed this cup of hot Healtea while munching on two slices of special Maja Blanca. We started the discussion right away before we fall asleep due to a full stomach.

Sir Arnold’s group did a recap of their project and did some edits and documentation before going ahead of us. We discussed ours on the features of project draft and with the help of Ma’am Robelle’s architect team, she was able to present the look of structure and the surrounding amenities. We then have to work for the writeups of the project features and make the initial presentation. That is to follow this week.

To wrap things up, it was a good experience visiting the site for the project though we need to schedule it on an earlier hour like in the morning next time so as it won’t be that hot.
