QC honors first 10 business taxpayers in ’07

Eight property lessors, a softdrinks distributor and a retailer of electronic parts and supplies were honored by the Quezon City government for being the first QC business taxpayers this year.

Mayor Feliciano Belmonte Jr. awarded certificates of recognition early this month to the 10 business owners for paying their taxes early and for being the first to renew their business permits and licenses, in ceremonies held at the QC Hall Bulwagang Amoranto.

Honored were Veronica Rustia, Elisa Batungbacal, Encarnacion Claudio, Angelica Soto, Sylvia Almazan, Anna Juanillo, Anita Lim, Marina Mallare, Feliciano Aguillar and Oliver Oliveros.

During the awarding ceremonies, the mayor cited the city’s taxpayers for their continuing support to the city’s growth and progress. The mayor was joined by Business Permits and Licensing Office chief Pacifico Maghacot in honoring this year’s first 10 business taxpayers in the city.

According to the BPLO, more than 50,000 taxpayers will be renewing their business permits and licenses this year.

Renewal of business permits requires the submission of the original and photocopies of the 2006 business permit, tax bill, 2007 official receipt, barangay clearance, Fire Safety Inspection Certificate (FSIC), location clearance and other documents.

Business taxes serve as the city’s major income source.

City Treasurer Dr. Victor Endriga reported that as of Dec. 31, his office has already collected about P3.014 billion in business taxes, which is P381.46 million more than what was collected during the same period last year.
