SP CARES: Commitment in Action

November 9 2025. In a proactive response to the impending threat of Typhoon Uwan, approximately 50 families, comprising 185 individuals from Barangay Lasip Grande, have been safely relocated to the Dagupan City Peoples Astrodome. The local government, with Vice Mayor BK Kua actively involved in monitoring the situation, has designated the Astrodome as a primary evacuation center to ensure the safety of residents in vulnerable areas.

The Astrodome is one of several public facilities designated to serve as evacuation centers. In coordination with city officials, multiple local schools and other public buildings have also been placed on standby and are prepared to house early evacuees from other flood-prone communities. This coordinated effort aims to ensure the safety of residents and streamline the delivery of essential services as the city braces for the potential impact of the severe weather.
