BACKGROUNDER

Figure 1 Old Caloocan City Hall in A. Mabini

What’s in the Name?


▪ From its beginning as a humble barrio of the town of Tondo located in a ‘libis’ (lowland), it
became known as ‘Libis Espina’ or ‘Aromahan’.

▪ Originating either from the Tagalog word ‘look’ meaning bay or ‘sulok’ meaning corner.
Caloocan might have meant ‘nasa sulok’ or in the corner since Caloocan is located where
the ends of the old town of Tondo and Tambobong (now Malabon) meet.

Histo-Recall

▪ At the end of the 18th century, the fishermen of Aromahan climbed the hills to open
homesteads in Caloocan. Here, the land was free of thorny plants that infested the banks/
shorelines and although the hill was naturally stony, some form of agriculture was possible
and fishermen became farmers.

▪ In 1815, Caloocan was separated from Tondo and became an independent municipality.
Its original territory extended to the foothills of Marikina, San Mateo and Montalban in the
east; from Tinajeros, Tanza and Tala Rivers in the North; San Francisco del Monte,
Sampalok, Sta. Cruz and Tondo in the south; and Dagat-Dagatan or Aromahan in the
west.

▪ The first settlers of Libis Espina, mostly oppressed people from Tondo, fought the
landlords of Hacienda de Maysilo on the upper lands of the Dagat-dagatan area, the battle
for terrestrial rights went on for almost a hundred years.

▪ On August 30 1896, the Katipuneros led by Gat Andres Bonifacio aided them in the
rebellion against their oppressors in what is now known as the “Cry of Balintawak”.

CALOOCAN CITY 2020 – 2022 COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT PLAN

▪ The Filipino forces in Caloocan participated actively in Intramuros siege of the Spanish
forces in Manila until their surrender to the Americans on August 13, 1898.

▪ On January 11, 1899, the people of Caloocan showed resistance to coming to terms with
the Americans, who were bent on extending their supremacy over the country.

▪ The men of Caloocan fought the new invaders on February 23, 1899, victory eluded the
local troops on the pretext of Gen. Antonio Luna’s rift with Aguinaldo’s loyalists.
The Making of a City

▪ In 1901, under the American Regime, Caloocan became one of the towns of the Province
of Rizal. Due to the consolidation of several municipalities, Novaliches became part of
Caloocan pursuant to Act 942, as amended by Acts 984 and 1008 of the Philippine
Commission.

Figure 2 Original Territorial Boundaries of Caloocan

▪ In 1939, pursuant to Commonwealth Act 502, which created Quezon City as Capital of the
Philippines, Caloocan lost the following barrios or sitios, namely: Balingasa, Kaingin,
Kangkong, La Loma, Malamig, Matalahib, Masambong, San Isidro, San Jose, Santol and
Tatalon.

▪ In 1949, boundaries of Quezon City were redefined pursuant to Republic Act 392 as
recommended by the Capital City Planning Commission. Caloocan again lost several
barrios, namely: Baesa, Bagbag, Bahay-Toro, Banlat, Novaliches, Pasong Tamo, San
Bartolome and Talipapa. This explains why the City of Caloocan has two separate
territories.

▪ In 1961, the late Mayor Macario B. Asistio, Sr., led the people of Caloocan to turn the
historic town into a city through a plebiscite held in accordance with House Bill 6038, which
was passed and approved by both chambers of the defunct Philippine Congress.

▪ On February 16, 1962 Caloocan was inducted into Cityhood

Geography and Location


▪ Caloocan has a combined total land area of 5,333.40 hectares and is located at the
northern part of the National Capital Region (NCR, Region IV-A).

▪ The city is divided into two geographic locations, namely: South Caloocan, with an area
of 1,362.50 hectares and North Caloocan, with an area of 3,970.90 hectares.

▪ South Caloocan is bounded on the north-northwest by Valenzuela, Malabon and Navotas;


on the east by Quezon City; and on the south by the City of Manila. The greatest length,
north to south of the boundaries is about six kilometers and the greatest width, east to
west is seven kilometers.

▪ North Caloocan, on the other hand, is bounded on the north-northwest by the province of
Bulacan; on the south-southeast by Quezon City; and southwest by Valenzuela. Its
extreme southern boundary is about 1.7 kilometers apart from the northern extreme
boundary of South Caloocan. The greatest length, north to south of the boundaries is
eight kilometers and the greatest width, east to west is ten kilometers.

Territorial Boundaries

▪ The City of Caloocan is divided into two political boundaries, namely: District 1 and District 2.

▪ District 1 is composed of 70 barangays, which include Barangays 1 to 4, 77 to 85 and 132 to 188.

▪ District 2 is composed of 118 barangays, which include Barangays 5 to 76 and 86 to 131.

Topography

South Caloocan

• A westward trend of flat lands covers a land area of about 1,001.64 hectares or 74.25%
of the whole southern portion of the city, slopes of which ranging from 0% to 3%. Being

CALOOCAN CITY 2020 – 2022 COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT PLAN

flat and highly accessible to neighboring cities and municipalities. It is where most of the
commercial and industrial establishments in the city can be found.
• Along the North Diversion Road, the topography of South Caloocan, gradually changes
into gently to moderately sloping to rolling, with slopes ranging from 3 to 18%. Adjacent to
residential and industrial areas within the sector, vast tracts of land still exist. In these
areas lie the highest point found to be 35.00 meters above mean sea level.
• The lowest is in the southernmost end of Kaunlaran Village (Dagat-Dagatan Development
Project) measuring about 0.993 meters above mean sea level.

North Caloocan
• Out of the total land area, 58.49% or 2,322.80 hectares are characterized to have gently
to steeply undulating to rolling topography with slopes ranging from 3 to 18%. This terrain
is noted in the northern and central portion and gradually transforming into a southward
trend of flat lands down to the southwestern tip of the boundary.
• Several industrial and residential subdivisions have already been developed in these
broadly to nearly level lands, because of its proximity to some of the major access roads
in the area.

Climate

Since Caloocan is divided into two separate geographical location, two recording stations were
considered in the study of the city’s annual rainfall, the Port Area Station in Manila was considered
for South Caloocan and the Science Garden Station in Diliman, Quezon City was for North
Caloocan respectively.

In 1994, maximum rainfall in North and South Caloocan occurred in the months of July, August
and September. The annual rainfall was recorded to be 2,115.90 mm with a maximum of 761.70
mm in July and a minimum of 1.60 mm in February for the South Caloocan. North Caloocan
recorded 2,588.70 mm annual rainfall with a maximum of 518.30 mm.

Health Manpower

The city has a total of 376 doctors, 554 nurses and 157 midwives rendering their services in the
three public hospitals and health centers. These medical personnel oversee the medical concern
of the city’s over 1.5 million populaces. In order to make up for the shortages of medical
professionals, the city government engaged the services of 520 barangay health workers (BHWs),
to cope up with the increasing demands for various medical and health services. Other hospitals/
government health centers are below the national standards.

On the other hand, a total of 590 doctors, 322 nurses and 31 midwives from the private hospitals
in Caloocan also complement the shortage in the number of health personnel.

CALOOCAN CITY 2020 – 2022 COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT PLAN

When an emergency occurs, hospitals and health institutions play a critical role and must be ready
to save lives and continue to provide essential health services to the community. Areas with high
PEIS include Grace Park, Maypajo, Dagat-Dagatan, Sampalukan, Marulas, Tandang Sora,
Morning Breeze and Bagong Barrio. These areas will experience a high PEIS of 8.5.

Based on the number of hospitals and its hazard susceptibility, these facilities cannot
accommodate the number of persons that will be greatly affected during major calamities. Open
spaces may be used as a possible site of evacuation.

Cemeteries

28
CALOOCAN CITY 2020 – 2022 COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT PLAN

Caloocan has three public and four private cemeteries. The Sangandaan cemetery is located
within the busy commercial district of Sangandaan. Insufficiency of burial lots in this location led
to the construction of unplanned apartment type niches in order to accommodate demand.
Supplemental niches are constructed on top of the other existing tombs to compensate for lack
of burial spaces. This cemetery is located near Longos creek making it very susceptible to
flooding.

Bagbaguin and Bagong Silang cemeteries serve the northern part of the city. To augment for
lack of space, four-storey tombs were constructed in these locations.

Burial plots are classified as multi-storey tombs (MST), underground tombs and the traditional on
the ground tombs. Skeleton vaults (ossuary) are common in the public cemeteries. This is where
the low-income families, after renting on-the-ground tombs for five years, transfer the bones of
their dead relatives.

CALOOCAN CITY 2020 – 2022 COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT PLAN

With Caloocan City’s growing population and the rising demand for economic activities, there is
a need to develop more strategies to address the issues of poverty and unemployment, provide
opportunities for investments, and encourage the growth of commercial and other business
establishments in the city. These would serve as primary catalysts for a more balanced
development of Caloocan. The city’s advantage is the presence of vacant land or open areas in
the North which remain untapped and are highly suitable for further development. Considering
that the current trends in both property and commercial development is the movement towards
the north of Metropolitan Manila, Caloocan City is rightfully the gateway towards Northern Luzon
and its peripheries such as Malabon, Navotas, Valenzuela, Quezon City, including Novaliches
and Fairview and the Province of Bulacan.

Trade and Industry

Caloocan City’s registered establishments are categorized into three major sectors namely:
Trading Sector (retailers, wholesalers and merchandising); Services Sector (contractors, real
estate, food establishments, amusement businesses, importers/exporters and financial
institutions); and Manufacturing Sector.

Employment by Major Sector

The services sector consistently took the largest share of manpower in the employment pool from
2013 to 2017. The increase in the number of hiring from 33,518 in 2013 to 38,144 in 2017, it has
collectively employed an average of 56.04 percent from the total labor force for the past five years.
The Retailers/ Merchandising averaged a little over 18,000 workers at a relatively stable 26.86
percent share. The manufacturing sector with its roughly 17.10 percent average share of the total
employment increased in number of workers from 8,608 in 2013 to 15,572 in 2017. The increased
in the number of workers poses a challenge to the City’s drive to provide more employment
opportunities for its residents.

Industry

Metal/ steel, plastic, paper and food manufacturing are the specific industries that significantly
contributed to the economic growth of Caloocan City. Other manufacturers that are also present
in the City include those which make furniture, garments, rubber, leather goods and others. There
is a need for the City to sustain these industries and to attract more investors, particularly in North
Caloocan with its proximity to North Diversion Road and availability of vacant lands suitable for
commercial and industrial use.

Roads

Out of the total road length of 1,058.31 km within Caloocan City, 314.03 km or 29.7 percent of its
road system, are distributed in South Caloocan and 744.28 km or 70.3 percent are in North
Caloocan. However, the ratio of road length with land area is larger, in the south than in the north:
the road density on the south is 23.04 km per square km, while in the north is 18.74 km per square
kilometer. The variance, moreover, is also because of the larger land area of North Caloocan that
indicates a need to develop its land use plan. Comparatively, South Caloocan roadways occupy
253.2 hectares in terms of land area or 18.6 percent of the south total land use. On the other
hand, 406.5 hectares or 11.1 percent represent North Caloocan roadways. Based on the standard

Collection and Disposal Services and Street Cleaning Services. Waste collection in the barangays
is done three times a week while garbage is collected daily along the main roads and market
areas. A total of 102 units of collection vehicles such as mini, forward, compactors and dump
trucks with different capacities ranging from 7 cubic meter to 22 cubic meters are dispatched daily
making 260 trips are collecting 3,874 cubic meters on the average of trash.
Within the CEMD service areas, the major collection services are the door to door collection,
station to station collection and street cleaning. Along with these services, CEMD also implements
different cleaning and environmental projects such as cleaning of barangays, tree planting, anti-
littering drive, education and information campaign.

Records indicate that there are about 160 trips at North Caloocan and 100 Trips at South
Caloocan dispatched daily for garbage collection. As of 2014, CEMD has a manpower
requirement of 447 personnel of whom 399 are for the Garbage Collection and Disposal Services,
17 for the Street Cleaning Section and 31 for the Administrative Services.

Source Reduction

Based on studies and records, the average waste-generation-rate per day in the City is 0.5081
kilograms per person and the average municipal waste generation rate varies from 750 to 850
tons per day. The density of these wastes is estimated at 0.2248 tons per cubic meter, while
waste composition is 48.6% biodegradable (yard waste, food waste, wood, etc.), and 51.4%
non-biodegradable (metals, glass, plastic, etc.).

One of the source reduction programs by the City is the implementation of the City plastic
Ordinance. Intensive IEC Campaign was conducted as the startup of the implementation for the
residential and commercial areas. The ordinance prohibits the use of sando bags and
polystyrenes as second packaging in all business and commercial establishments.

Eco-friendly bags are also used in the markets to minimize the use of plastics as secondary
packaging. Household members are taught to reuse items instead of throwing. The scheme
implemented in waste reduction is to follow and adhere to ecological solid waste management’s
3Rs: reuse, reduce and recycle,

Organizational Structure

Seat of Government - North and South Caloocan City Halls

Figure 8 Caloocan City Hall Main (South Caloocan) and North Caloocan City Hall

The Office of the City Mayor, together with its operational (line) and staff (management support)
offices and departments, are all housed at the New Caloocan City Hall – Main located at 8th
Avenue, between 8th and 9th Street, Barangay 103 and 104, Caloocan City.

On the other hand, North Caloocan City Hall is located along Zapote Road, Camarin. It is headed
by a general manager reporting directly to the city mayor and is supported by extension offices
and departments. The city government, because of the two non-contiguous areas of the city with
each separated by travel distance of almost 20 kilometers, now focuses on coordinating its
operational and administrative services in North Caloocan in terms of socio-economic and
infrastructure development.

Prevailing issues and problems in the city are discussed, deliberated and brought to the attention
of the city mayor through regular department heads’ meetings. Every Friday, the chief executive
holds office at the North Caloocan City Hall to ensure that basic services are also being delivered
effectively to its residents.

Executive Body

Caloocan City is presently classified as one of the country’s highly urbanized cities, having met
the minimum requirements in terms of income, land area and population.
The city government is headed by an elected city mayor and vice mayor, both serving a three-
year term. As the chief executive, the city mayor provides the overall leadership in the formulation
and actual implementation of the city’s socio-economic and physical programs. He is assisted by
34 offices directly under his supervision, 26 of which are mandated by the provisions of the Local
Government Code of 1991, and eight are mandated by other national legislations.

CALOOCAN CITY 2020 – 2022 COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT PLAN

Consistent with the provisions of Executive Order No. 319 (Office of the President) and Executive
Order No. 89-04 (Office of the City Mayor), the City Government created the Caloocan City

thereof, for the implementation of programs and to enhance economic, social, industrial and
commercial development.

The Caloocan City Development Council is headed by the City Mayor as Chairperson, assisted
by the department heads of all government agencies involved in economic and social
development operating within the City Government jurisdiction. The other members of the council

CALOOCAN CITY 2020 – 2022 COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT PLAN

COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT PLAN

The multisector representation and participation by the City Executive, the Local Legislative
Council and selected members of the Civil Society, formulated The Vision and Mission of the City
of Caloocan through an Executive Legislative Agenda Conference Workshop held in August of
2013. The set Vision was revisited and amended further to reflect the City’s aspiration to equip
the local population against impact of natural hazards and the protection of vulnerable areas from
natural and man-made disasters. As a result, from the said series of deliberations, the collective
Vision for the City was stated as follows:

“The Historic City of Caloocan, center of sustainable economic growth, peopled by resilient,
peace-loving and dynamic communities, living in a safe and ecologically balanced environment,
served by a government that gives the highest value to the needs of its citizens.”

Caloocan City is centered on developing an investment-friendly environment that will create jobs
for its constituents, a vibrant public and private partnership that ensures and sustains efficient,
timely and responsive delivery of services, such as health, education and infrastructure that will
result in an orderly community and healthy environment, through an uncompromising “PEOPLE
FIRST POLICY (Tao Ang Una)’

Caloocan City’s 2015 Population Growth Rate has considerably decreased compared to what
was recorded in the NSO’s Census of 2010. This would have greatly contributed in increasing the
city’s income per capita, but with the national government’s continuous transfer of ISFs in various
NHA housing sites in the city, the relocatees coming from the different areas of the Metro adds
up to the LGUs service delivery burden. The effect of this unrestrained migration results to
incidence of poverty, increasing unemployment, flooding, waste management problems and
traffic congestion. The extent of basic services, especially education and health, would likely fall
short of what is usually required due to this added sector of the city population.

Inflation continues to hurt the depleted power of the Philippine peso. The city government renders
assistance through its various welfare programs intended at alleviating the current poverty
situation. In order to sufficiently fund these programs, it has to come up with revenue generating
measures to meet all exigencies and requirements.

Poverty and Unemployment

Based on the 2015 PSA data, poverty incidence among families in NCR’s 3rd District (Caloocan-
Malabon-Navotas-Valenzuela) or the CAMANAVA Region was registered at 3.3 percent. This is

51
CALOOCAN CITY 2020 – 2022 COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT PLAN

slightly higher than the average of NCR’s 2.7 percent. The poverty threshold for a family of five
living in the region was established at PhP10,419.58, the household should at least earn this
amount in order to sustain its minimum basic food and non-food needs.

2015 25,007.00 125,035.00 10,419.58 2.7 3.3

Concurring to the data recorded by the 2015 PSA Census, the city's potential labor force was
estimated at 1,036,878 or 12.56 percent of the total labor force in the NCR. The city’s
economically active labor force was posted at 655,514 (63.22 percent) of which 592,913 (90.45
percent) were employed. On the other hand, those who are not in the labor force were registered
at 381,364 (36.78 percent). Caloocan City had unemployment rate of 9.55%, higher than NCR’s
average of 8.50%.

Drainage and Flooding


Flooding due to monsoon rains and typhoon is anticipated to intensify due to climate change. Recurrent
problems of flood and destruction of properties due to typhoons is expected to aggravate this coming rainy
season.

In Caloocan City, the cause of severe flood problems mostly due to overflow, excessive rainfall and
inadequate channel capacity. In some areas of the City within higher elevation, accidents from flooding are
cause by erosion and landslides. All of the areas where cases of severe flood problems gave rise to the
loss of property and some lives (on isolated cases) as well.

In a study conducted under the Greater Metro Manila Area Risk Assessment Project (GMMA RAP) and
estimated 51.76 hectares or some 15 barangays in South Caloocan is susceptible to high and very high
flooding while in the North Caloocan 18 barangays will suffer high flooding and 18 will experience very high
flooding with a total estimated area of 167.8 hectares. Generally, flat and low elevations of some portions
are also prone to tidal floods particularly in portions of Dagat-Dagatan Development Project. Among areas

52
CALOOCAN CITY 2020 – 2022 COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT PLAN

classified as flood disaster prone areas are Maypajo (Isla San Juan) - Marulas Area, Portions of Dagat-
Dagatan Area, La Loma Cemetery Wall, Libis Baesa Area, Malaria-Barracks, and some subdivisions in
North Caloocan City.

Another significant cause of flooding in Caloocan City is land development consequences. Rapid
development of urban settlements generally, in North Caloocan City, causes the replacement of vegetated
and forested areas with (concrete and other non-permeable) pavements. To the same extent, the notable
aftermath of urban development in the whole City, is the loss or reduction of natural waterways due to
reclamation blockage8 and the conversion of some natural streams into underground drainage (op. Cited).

Waste Management
Recent report shows that the total solid waste collected in Caloocan City estimates to run up to more than
718 tons per day or equivalent to 2,177 cubic meters. The continuous increase of volume of garbage
generated corresponds to the additional cost for collection and handling. Furthermore, uncollected waste
materials continuously contribute to worsening of flooding and outbreak of diseases.

Traffic Congestion
About 19 intersections in South Caloocan City suffer from traffic congestion daily, especially during peak
hours. Vehicle volume increase is remarkably seen within whole stretch of Epifanio de los Santos Avenue
(EDSA) or C-4, those extents traversing Caloocan City. The intersection crossing the Bonifacio Monument
Circle (EDSA - Rizal Ave. Ext.), bears the highest daily AM and PM Peak Hour Traffic at 6,679 and 4,664
respectively, with the total daily volume of 59,886.

Intersections in North Caloocan City also sustain serious traffic problems and affects transportation
efficiency in general. Some of the intersection that stands congested during peak hours is Camarin - Old
Zabarte Road Intersection, Camarin-Congressional Road Intersection, Malaria Road - Quirino Highway,
and intersections at Bagong Silang Resettlement Project.

Among the number of causes of traffic congestion are narrow right of ways and sidewalks, inefficient bus
or jeepney terminal facilities, street and market vendor, poor pavement, inadequate Traffic Management
System (TMS), and inadequate road geometry.

Increasing Housing Needs and Urban Blight

The housing problem in Caloocan City as well as within the rest of cities and municipalities in NCR has
reached alarming proportions.

Urban blight and slum areas grow correspondingly with rate of housing shortage, wherein lack of affordable
housing result to ‘squatting’ and thereupon leads to urban congestion and deterioration of environmental
condition of slum areas. The secondary problems that come from urban blights are the worsening structural
condition within, health problems, increase in crime and declining public order situation. As of 2010, the
City has an estimated number of 79,543 censused families who were living in danger areas, government
properties, road right-of-way (ROW) and private properties. The increasing number of these settlers is
brought about by rapid rate of rural-urban migration and intense poverty. There are several sites from
different parts of the City that suffers socio-economic problems due to effect of urban blight.

53
CALOOCAN CITY 2020 – 2022 COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT PLAN

Social Infrastructure and Services

The lack of valuable and critical social infrastructure, such as school and health facilities are one of the
foremost development concerns in the City. The increase of population definitely brings greater demand for
social service facilities.

For school year 2017-2018, enrollment in the public elementary level reached 168,469. These students
have to fit themselves in 2,035 classrooms with a pupil classroom ratio of 1:64, much higher than the current
requirement ratio of 1:50. The enrollment further increases by 10.34% from the previous year.

The provision of adequate health facilities for underprivileged citizens of the City, is likewise a critical
infrastructure issue. As of 2018 there are only 13 hospitals operating in Caloocan City, of which 3 are
government and 10 are private and a birthing home. One of the government hospitals is a special hospital
for psychiatric patients. The two LGU run hospitals have a total of 268 beds for needy patients while private
hospitals have a total bed capacity of only 504. With the ratio of one bed for 1,551, Caloocan City has to
build additional hospitals to meet the standard requirement of one bed for every one thousand population.
The 44 health centers also need reconstruction and upgrading to be able to meet the PhilHealth
accreditation for OPB (Out Patient Benefit Package) MCP (Maternal Care Package), and TB-DOTS (Direct
observation Treatment, Short-course).

Population management is among the critical factors in augmenting sufficiency of social infrastructure and
services within the City. In the last 20 years the development of resettlement areas and residential
subdivisions in Caloocan City brought thereupon an exceptional rate of influx of people from various parts
of the country. North Caloocan City specifically shows a stunning average growth rate of more than 6.5%
annually. Confronting this phenomenon through application of appropriate prudent policy measures is
becoming to be one of the biggest challenges for the City Government.

Environmental Pollution

Caloocan City contains all types of air pollution sources and types of air pollutants. A large number of motor
vehicles daily passing and ‘queuing’ on major thoroughfares and various number of manufacturing facilities
operating within the City have been contributing air contaminants over the years. Motor Vehicles, according
to World Bank report, are the largest source of air pollution at 60% of the total pollution load, but the bulk
of particulate matter, is still re-suspended soil (or dusts).

High concentration of Lead (Pb) is found in Monumento area, of which in excessive concentration on human
blood could cause neurological effects. The rise of concentration of motor vehicles on these areas where
gasoline cars are double the number of public vehicles contributes to the increase of lead level.

Caloocan City, among all of its river ways and creeks, shares water streams that are physically apparent
of contamination. Some of this natural surface drainage (which others are converted to canals) indicates
turbid water filled with garbage and refuse wastes. Some of the streams that suffer pollution problems are
Tullahan River, Saluysoy River - DDDP Peripheral Canal, Maligaya Creek, Casili Creek, Panaca Creek,
and some tributaries in North Caloocan City.

Sewage is also considered as the foremost surface water contaminant. With the expected increase of
Population of Caloocan City in year 2000, at about 1.35 million, the City’s populace shall generate about
47.25 tons/day (t/d) of BOD waste from domestic sewage.
Institutional Concerns on the Delivery of Basic Services

54
CALOOCAN CITY 2020 – 2022 COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT PLAN

Delivery of frontline services has also been a recent development concern in the City. For number of years,
institutional setbacks and constraints further aggravate the effect of usual fiscal resource problems in local
development administration. Major institutional elements contributing to the delay and inefficiency of
delivering local government services are clear definition of organizational roles, weak coordination,
technical and administrative capability, political stability, public participation in development, political
boundary disputes, and legislative support.

55
CALOOCAN CITY 2020 – 2022 COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT PLAN

Decrease Poverty Incidence and Reduce Unemployment Rate

The City Government approach poverty problems under two strategic considerations: (1.) the amount and
the rate of household income, (2.) the level of living standard or ability to benefit from basic services.

Conditions affecting sufficiency of household income are availability of employment opportunities, capacity
to go into profitable enterprise and accessibility to commodities with reduce market price -- cutting
household expenditures. In response to the said conditions, the City Government shall provide measures
to generate employment, addressing needs of both employers and the active labor force. Likewise,
development policies shall also focus on development of micro-scale enterprises and formation of
cooperatives which services could secure the minimum daily living requirement of the urban poor.

Level of poverty is also a measure of level of living standard or the ability to access and benefit from basic
services available within the community. Policies, on this matter, should also center on the equitable
distribution and augmentation of valued infrastructure and institutional services.

Uplift Level and Extent of Social and Economic Infrastructure Services

Staking to expanded public capital investments is an essential approach in achieving sustainable


development. The problems of drainage waste management, traffic engineering, school and health
facilities, and housing, requires engineering solutions that are usually capital-intensive in type. However,
policy solutions such as land use control, promotion of community participation, information and education,
among others are supporting measures that are also necessary in accomplishing development targets.

Promote a Livable and Acceptable Urban Environment

Advancement of an efficient land use pattern optimizes public capital expenditures, which in turn improves
private sector productivity. The uncontrolled growth of built-up areas brings urban blight, contributes to
propagation of slum areas, causes traffic congestion, misspends common economic resources such as
time and energy, and even leads to jeopardizing life and property.

Develop and Sustain Institutional Capability Measures

Development planning and management are tools that require a strong and effective institutional
mechanism that will assure sustainability and success of local development. Plans must evolve on the
formulation of continuous long-term capacity building especially on areas of frontline services and
development administration. Team building, multi-sectoral consultation and capability upgrading are
traditional strategies that are important to involve in performing development works.

Road Infrastructure

Introduction
Due to increase of vehicular traffic, road congestion has become constant everywhere in
Caloocan City (similar to rest of Metro Manila’s Cities and Municipalities). The major reason for
this congestion is the need for more road infrastructure along with the required road maintenance
management system. Though government agencies constructed and completed a number of road
improvement projects, still gap between road supply and compounding demand for road use is
broadening.

Development of transport infrastructure, management of intersections and transport corridors,


road maintenance, links between different major arterial roads, road safety education and
enforcement of public transportation regulations were seen as the foremost issues impeding road
development and aggravating traffic condition on roads. Equity in transportation services,

147
CALOOCAN CITY 2020 – 2022 COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT PLAN

especially public modes, is also a serious issue, since it directly affects the accessibility of low-
income road users to their workplaces. Areas that essentially account specific issues affecting
traffic congestion are on road development, public transport services, traffic management, and
urban development and land use.

Issues and Problems


• Inadequate road network, capacity, connectivity and linkages between local and major arterial
roads
o Need for upgrading of database on road infrastructure as per physical condition,
alignment, and road lot survey
o Insufficient number of street names, directional signages and traffic signages.
• Delayed implementation of on-going circumferential roads (primary arterial roads);
• Increasing number of registered motor vehicles
Goal
To provide equitable, sustainable, resilient, accessible and efficient road and transportation
infrastructure services that promotes public health and safety, and inclusive mobility

Objectives and Target Settings


• Improve mobility and accessibility of people, goods and services on all local and major arterial
roads
• Improve current road network linkages/connectivity
• Decrease travel time and travel distances for all trip purposes
• Improve database on road infrastructure
Policies and Strategies
• Constantly identify opportunities and areas for road network improvement in the formulation
of AIP
• Identify and convert existing roads and bridges into connecting links between local (feeder)
and arterial roads
• Promote policies and measures that would increase capacity of the City Government to
implement and maintain road infrastructure projects

Environmental Management Plan

Air and Water Quality Management


Introduction
The air environment within and surrounding Caloocan City consists all types of air pollution
sources and pollutants. A large volume of motorized vehicles and various numbers of
manufacturing facilities operating within the City have been contributing to total accounted air
pollutants. Motorized Vehicles, according to World Bank report, are the largest source of air
pollution at 60% of the total pollution load, and the bulk of particulate matter is still re-suspended
soil (or dusts).

Similarly, all of its river ways and creeks, are apparently polluted as shown by its high level of
turbidity or murk. Some of this natural surface drainage (which others are converted to canals)
indicates turbid water filled with garbage and refuse wastes. Some of the waterways that stands
with pollution problems are Tullahan River, DDDP Peripheral Canal, Maligaya Creek, Casili
Creek, Panaca Creek, and some tributaries in North Caloocan City.

Issues and Problems


• Deficiency in the Full implementation and enforcement of Clean Water Act, Clean Air Act, R.A.
8749 and other Environmental Laws, Rules and Regulations at City and Barangay level
o Need for Qualified Technical personnel to implement environmental laws pertaining to Air
& Water Quality Management (R.A. 9275 and R.A. 8749)
o Necessity to enact Local Regulatory Tool that would implement specific provisions of the
Clean Water Act, Clean Air Act and P.D. 856, and deputize local environmental personnel
in enforcing other Environmental Laws, Rules and Regulations
o Failure or refusal of Commercial Establishments to be inspected by CEMD personnel in
compliance with the strict enforcement of City Ordinance 0637 (Septic Ordinance) and
0662 (Environmental Inspection Fee on pollutive business establishments)
o Absence of citywide awareness on the Manila Bay Clean-Up, Rehabilitation and
Preservation Program (MBCRP) or the Supreme Court Writ of Mandamus to all
government agencies to perform statutory cleaning activities on Manila Bay and on all its
river tributaries
• High Annual and Daily Level of Particulate Matter (PM) and other airborne contaminants
monitored from existing air quality monitoring stations of EMB-DENR
o Need for the promotion and implementation of measures that would reduce negative
impact of air and water pollution, including additional monitoring stations for air quality
o Increasing contribution of City’s local industries, commercial establishments and
households to greenhouse gas (GHGs) concentration from burning of fossil fuels
o Decreasing capacity of communities to adapt or mitigate effect of climate change in their
health and safety
Goal
To promote and ensure the health and safety of the general public and the protection of urban
environment against the adverse effects of air and water pollutants coming from all sources.

Solid Waste Management


Introduction
Based on studies and records, the average waste-generation rate per day in Caloocan City is
0.50 kilograms per person and the average city waste generation rate792 tons per day 24. The
density of these wastes is estimated at 225 kilograms per cubic meter, while their composition is
66 percent biodegradable (yard waste, food waste, woo, etc.) and 34 percent non-biodegradable
(metal, glass, plastic, etc.). The continuous increase of volume of garbage generated corresponds
to the additional cost for collection and handling. Furthermore, uncollected waste materials
continuously contribute to worsening of flooding and outbreak of diseases.

Issues and Problems


• Low waste diversion rate in the implementation of solid wastes, collection, segregation and
disposal system
o Segregated collection is not fully implemented at all Barangays
o Deficiency of Materials Recovery Facilities (MRF) in collecting, storing, and distributing
segregated solid wastes to recycling centers.
o Insufficiency in implementing effective clean-up drive on public spaces and waterways in
all Barangays
o Need to review and update the approved 10-year Solid Waste Management Plan (29
