To recall, since January 2018, COSAP is the office tasked to process the payroll of the barangay tanods to avoid delays in the releasing of the honorarium.

The barangay tanods are required to submit their daily time record (DTR), individual accomplishment report, authority to serve and consolidated report which will be made by their respective chief of tanod.

The authority to serve will be signed by the mayor signifying that the barangay tanod has undergone drug test facilitated by COSAP.

Last April 13, CTO also disbursed the honorarium for tanods from barangays Sambag 2, Mabolo, Kamputhaw, Bulacao, Pung-ol Sibugay, Pit-os, Parian, Guadalupe, Sambag 2, and Mabolo.

Other barangays include Bonbon, Mambaling, Tejero, San Jose, Kamagayan, Hipodromo, and Pahina Central.

The first distribution was on April 6, 2018 for the month of January for tanods from barangays Sirao, Agsungot, Guadalupe, Busay, Tejero, Buhisan and Labangon.

Record shows that of the 80 barangays in the city, there are still 40 barangays whose tanods have not received their honorarium for the first two months of the year.

Lao said City Accounting Office is already processing their payroll.  (FREEMAN)
