BONTOC, Mountain Province -- Starting September, all ten towns of Mountain Province will be having a “guest mayor’ for two days.

This is an innovation on local governance with all ten municipal mayors agreeing to rotate positions to observe good practices and programs of local government units in the province.

The planned rotation will commence first week of September.

Natonin Mayor Anna Marie Paz Rafael Banaag said mayors will rotate simultaneously, just like a rigodon and each mayor will stay for two days in a municipality where he is assigned.

Banaag said the guest mayor will act as the local chief executive on his host municipality but cannot sign documents in behalf of the host mayor.

The guest mayor will also observe staff and employees of the host LGU.

Banaag said they will do this rotation once every month, until all mayors have visited all the member municipalities.

There will be a “learning-sharing” activity in connection to this, the lady mayor said.

Meanwhile, Banaag announced there would be a Cindewoll medical/dental mission in Natonin town on Sept.8.

Cindewoll stands for Cordillera Indigenous Elected Women Leaders League headed by Undersecretary Josephon dC Dominguez.

Banaag added the “Bontoc Brigada” will also visit their municipality with Red Cross personnel who have a school feeding program.
