The Correspondence and Records Division, City Mayor’s Office, Davao City, came into existence during the Reorganization of the City Government of Davao in 1996. Previous to this, our Office was only a Section headed by a Chief Clerk. However, on August 21, 1989, an Act Prescribing A Revised Compensation and Position Classification System in the Government (Republic Act No. 6758) was enacted. With this Law, the Records Section was converted to Records Division headed by a Records Officer IV. The main function of this Office is to receive, classify, release, safe keep, maintain and deliver communications/documents of the Office of the City Mayor.
