Subject: Request for explanation and documents on FY2027 DPWH budget lines for Cagayan De Oro City (Second District)

Dear Representative Rufus B. Rodriguez:

Good day. I live in Cagayan De Oro City (Second District), and I would like to ask about some DPWH lines for the Cagayan de Oro City 2nd DEO in the FY2027 budget. When I compared the National Expenditure Program (NEP) with House Bill No. 10858 (third reading), I noticed the following:

For each line above, may I ask for:
1. The reason or basis for adding, increasing, reducing or removing it, and who requested it;
2. The feasibility study, program of work, or detailed engineering design, if one exists;
3. The exact location and the expected beneficiaries; and
4. Any earlier projects at the same location and their status.

For context, this is what public DPWH records show for past projects:
- Cagayan de Oro City 2nd DEO: 596 contracts (2016–2025) in public DPWH records; 492 recorded as completed and 78 as ongoing.
Some of these were marked by automated indicators on public data. These are not findings of wrongdoing; I would only like an explanation for:
- Construction of Cugman River Dike (Tablon Side/Down Stream), Brgy. Tablon, Cagayan de Oro City, Misamis Oriental (23KD0019): Duplicate or Near-Duplicate Projects. https://lovethephilippines.com/projects/c0eaabeb-fd4c-42dd-85da-d6bed7ac92b2
- Construction of Cugman River Dike (Tablon Side, Downstream) at Cugman River, Tablon, Cagayan de Oro City , Misamis Oriental (23KD0020): Duplicate or Near-Duplicate Projects. https://lovethephilippines.com/projects/f962f54e-58ba-426f-bd59-8b183717dfd1

I am asking only for information and am not alleging any wrongdoing. Thank you for your time and your reply.

Respectfully,
[Your name]
[Barangay, city or municipality]
