City Gov’t streamlines public information dissemination
KIDAPAWAN CITY – IN AN Effort to better serve the public and bring more awareness to its programs, projects and activities, the City Government is streamlining its information services from all of its offices.
City Mayor Joseph Evangelista signed Memorandum Number 070 s. of 2020 on January 10 that directs all departments of the City Government in designating their respective information liaisons.
The designated information liaison(s) will serve as point persons who will assist the City Information Office in bringing consciousness to the public of the necessary details of projects, programs and activities of their departments.
Information dissemination will be provided to the public via the City Government website, radio program, printed materials and social media page.
Under the Memorandum, department heads will assign employees as information liaisons of their offices.
The department head can also be the information liaison him/herself if the need to provide sufficient details arises.
Departments should submit the list of activities to the CIO to be documented for better coverage.
In the case of the Sagguniang Panlungsod, the City Vice Mayor and City Councilors can designate his/her own information liaison, separate from the Sangguniang Panlungsod in general, to report on Resolutions filed, privilege speeches made, and Ordinances endorsed, among other official and/or legislative activities.
All Departments can also submit photographs and/or video files to the City Information Office for proper dissemination in the available forms of media for the information of the general public.##(cio/lkoasay)
