1. Rejection of DPWH Infrastructure Projects for 2026
Danao City Mayor Ramon "Nito" Durano III has officially refused to issue permits for several infrastructure projects proposed by the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) for implementation in 2026.

Mayor's Rationale: The mayor cited that the proposed projects would destroy roads that are currently still in good condition.
Request for Realignment: Instead of the proposed DPWH projects, Mayor Durano has asked President Marcos Jr. to realign the budget to fund two critical bridge projects that the city urgently needs.

2. National Recognition for Exemplary Local Governance
