Q&A (PROCLAMATION NO. 519)

The land parcel is located at Barangay Zone 5, Pulupandan, Negros Occidental, Island of Negros.

The land parcel contains an area of one thousand five hundred (1,500) square meters, more or less.

The parcel, identified as Ng-06-000026, is described by boundaries with adjacent lots, public land, Road (15.00 meters wide), and a land claimed by Philippine Port Authority, with specific geographical bearings and distances as detailed in the proclamation.

It means the land cannot be sold, leased, occupied, entered, or otherwise disposed of until it is again declared alienable by a Proclamation of the President.

The Bureau of Customs administers the reserved land.

The reservation is subject to private rights, if any exist, meaning existing private rights are recognized notwithstanding the reservation.

The land must be declared alienable again by a Proclamation of the President before any sale or other disposition can occur.

The land was surveyed by Engineer Gonzalo C. Robles on August 22, 1997, and the survey was approved on September 4, 1998.
