DENR suspends Stria Santa Fe ECC for height violations
The Department of Environment and Natural Resources' (DENR) Environmental Management Bureau (EMB) has suspended the environmental clearance certificate (ECC) of Fifth Avenue Property Development Corp.'s Stria Santa Fe Project in Cebu.
The project was found to exceed the maximum height limit of 10 meters or three floors set by regulations to preserve the landscape profile.
DENR-EMB Region 7's Paquito Melicor said that exceeding these limits breaches regulatory requirements and risks environmental damage.
Earlier, the EMB ordered Fifth Avenue Property Development Corp. to pay a P270,000 fine for the violation and issued three notices of violation on July 31, September 17, and December 18, 2024.
The ECC was suspended on August 15, 2025, after the company failed to pay the imposed fine.
GMA News Online is attempting to reach Fifth Avenue Property Development Corp. for a comment on the matter.
