Tagbilaran City Police Station won Best City Police Station for PCR, while Cortes Municipal Police Station won Best Municipal Station for PCR.

Former Tagbilaran City Police Station Chief, PLtCol. Mary Crystal Peralta, was chosen as the Most Outstanding Junior PCO for Police Community Relations.

Former Tagbilaran City Mayor John Geesnell “Baba” Yap personally received the award along with newly- installed Police Chief PLtCol. Regie Real who represented the Tagbilaran City Police Station during the ceremony.
