WHEREAS, upon
petition of the occupants the defunct People’s Homesite and Housing
Corporation authorized on November 27, 1964, the expropriation of 51
lots of Block 157, 158 and 159 of the Grace Park Subdivision situated in
Caloocan City, totalling 18,427.5 sq. m., and requested the Office of
the President the sum of Six Hun dred Forty Five Thousand (P645.000.00)
Pesos needed to acquire the said lots at P35.00 per square meter.

WHEREAS, the Treasurer of the
Philippines was able to release the requested sum of P645,000.00 to the

resale to the bonafide occupants therein.
