The Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (MDRRMC) Executive Committee, chaired by Municipal Mayor Atty. John Edward G. GANDO, together with key municipal officers and officials, convened a Pre-Disaster Risk Assessment (PDRA) Meeting on August 4, 2026, at the New Municipal Conference Hall to discuss preparedness measures for the possible effects of Typhoon Dolphin.
During the meeting, updates on the weather situation were presented by Ms. Aida E. Gallos, LDRRM Officer III. Mayor GANDO shared that he had already sent a letter to the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) on July 30 regarding the recent flooding that affected the municipality, particularly the Municipal Building, requesting the agency's immediate action to address the issue. He then directed all department heads to secure important equipment and documents in their respective offices in anticipation of possible flooding.
Preparations discussed included ensuring the availability of food packs, emergency funds, hydraulic equipment, and service vehicles in good working condition. Concerned agencies were also instructed to remain on alert, issue necessary advisories to respective barangays, and prepare their response plans.
The meeting reaffirmed the Municipal Government's commitment to proactive disaster preparedness and a coordinated response to ensure the safety and well-being of the people of Jordan.
