Mayor Benjamin Magalong has ordered an immediate investigation into the sudden increase in boat rental fees at Burnham Park, warning boat concessionaires that those found taking advantage of the public will face sanctions.

The mayor described the reported fee increases as “opportunistic, irresponsible and abusive,” saying such practices have no place in a city that seeks to be human-centric.

He directed the City Environment and Parks Management Office (CEPMO) and the Permits and Licensing Division to conduct an inspection of all boat concessionaires at the park today and determine whether they are complying with city regulations, including the authorized rates.

The mayor also ordered CEPMO to remove all old and unsafe boats being used by concessionaires, stressing that the safety of residents and tourists should never be compromised for profit.

Notices of violation (NOVs) and show-cause orders will be issued against those found to have violated regulations.

The mayor further ordered that concessionaires who failed to issue official receipts for transactions be held accountable and charged accordingly.

The mayor warned that the city government will not allow anyone to exploit visitors or tarnish Baguio’s reputation as a welcoming destination.

He said business operators at Burnham Park have a responsibility to uphold fair dealing, safety and proper service, particularly because the park is one of the city’s most prominent tourist attractions.

“We cannot allow a few opportunists to destroy the image of Baguio as a human-centric city,” the mayor said.

CEPMO Head Atty Rhenan Diwas said no rate increase has yet been authorized as this still requires approval of the city council.

He said that there was an earlier agreement for rental fee adjustment but this is on condition that they will comply with the boat upgrading requirement and the securing of approval from the city council.

To date, only two of the nine concessionaires have complied with the boat upgrading requirement of the city, Diwas said. - Aileen P. Refuerzo

A highlight of the celebration was the Keynote Address of Mr. Mark T.

In his message, COO Lapid underscored Baguio City’s special place in the hearts of Filipino families, recalling how generations of visitors have created cherished memories and meaningful experiences in the country’s Summer Capital.

After nearly a year of closure for rehabilitation, one of Baguio City’s most iconic attractions is once again open to the public.

Burnham Lake officially reopened today, September 1, coinciding with the celebration of Baguio City’s 117th Charter Day. The short but meaningful opening ceremony was led by City officials headed by Congressman Mauricio Domogan, Mayor Benjamin Magalong, together with Department of Tourism - Cordillera Administrative Region (DOT-CAR) Regional Director Jovita A. Ganongan and Tourism Infrastructure and Enterprise Zone Authority (TIEZA) Chief Operating Officer Mark Lapid.

Despite the rainy weather that has embraced Baguio in recent weeks, the reopening marks a new chapter for the historic lake and the beloved Burnham Park.

The rehabilitation, undertaken through the support of TIEZA and the City Government of Baguio, brought improvements to the lake’s facilities and surroundings, including upgraded docking and boating areas, lakeside amenities, structural improvements, landscaping, and measures aimed at improving the overall experience for everyone.

For generations, Burnham Lake has been part of the Baguio experience - a place for families, visitors, and locals to gather, unwind, and enjoy the cool mountain atmosphere.

Now, after months of waiting, the boats are back, the lake is filled once again, and a familiar piece of Baguio’s tourism landscape is ready to welcome visitors once more.
