They further assured that all respective divisions housed within the DRC have implemented protocols allowing staff to work remotely or from alternative office facilities, ensuring continuity of services.
Continuity of Services
During this period, inquiries during regular business hours will be responded to via the main telephone number of each respective division. Services have been arranged to ensure minimal disruption to the ongoing projects and the community. Those contacting the Land Development Office can continue to submit incoming permit requests at the temporary location and times set.
Temporary Location at Grymes Center

This arrangement will continue until the DRC is fully operational again.
Anticipated Resumption of Services
“Any updates regarding the reopening schedule will be communicated ASAP. We regret any inconvenience caused and anticipate resuming full, in-person services to the community on Monday.“, the officials said. Despite the unscheduled interruption, the DRC’s priority remains to resume its services as soon as possible for the benefit of the city, its residents, and the ongoing development projects.
