History

The city government of Bacoor was previously housed at the old Municipal Hall of Bacoor in Barangay Tabing Dagat which could no longer accommodate needs of the local government units.[2][3]

On March 2, 2012, the groundbreaking for a new government center was made. The government facility which has a 11,200 square metres (121,000 sq ft) of floor area, was built on a 2 hectares (4.9 acres) lot donated by Senator Manny Villar and Narcimiano Gawaran of the Addas Development Corporation. The three storey building was also built as a green building and completion of the building was scheduled to 2013, at the time of the groundbreaking.[2]

The city hall building was inaugurated on September 29, 2015, in line with the city's 344th founding anniversary celebration led by then Mayor Strike B. Revilla (who is currently the Representative of the 2nd District of Cavite). The building also houses other government offices such as the satellite branches of the National Bureau of Investigation, Department of Trade and Industry, Philippine Statistics Authority, Housing and Land Use Regulatory Board and Overseas Workers Welfare Administration.[4]

Service and business centers of Meralco, PLDT and Bayad Center and kiosks from Smart and Sun are also located here.[5]
