Greenheights Newtown, St. Therese at Kingsville Subd., Iglesia ni Cristo at Virginia Summerville Subd.,
and more within Vermont Park Executive Village, Maries Village, and Town and Country Executive Village.

Mayamot's residents.

Soft Areas:

Medium-density residential (R-2) areas, which include residential subdivisions like Green Heights
Newtown, Villa Corazon Subd., Crestview Subd., and others. These areas are typically subject to
residential development and may be considered soft areas for growth.

High-density residential (R-3) areas in Brgy. Mayamot may be considered soft areas, especially if they
have vacant spaces or the potential for further residential development.

Minor Commercial (C-1) and Major Commercial (C-2) areas along streets like B.V. Soliven Ave., Marikina-
Infanta Road, Sumulong Highway, Marcos Highway, and Maries Village entrance gate, which may be soft
areas for commercial and business development.

Environmental hazards

Mayamot faces potential flooding in specific zones, notably along Marcos Highway, certain sections in
Maries Village, along the river of Haling Creek, and parts of Greenheights Newtown. These areas are
susceptible to flooding during heavy rainfall or adverse weather conditions.

Earthquake risks in Mayamot are relatively low, with no fault lines directly within the barangay. The
nearest fault line is located 7,000 km away, indicating a lower seismic hazard for the community.

While Mayamot itself is prone to landslides, certain areas in Mayamot near Barangay Cupang exhibit
susceptibility to this geological hazard. It's crucial to consider and address these environmental factors in
the planning and development of infrastructure and community initiatives to ensure the safety and well-
being of residents.

Future Development Plans

Barangay Mayamot, nestled within the landscape of Antipolo City, is an integral component of the area's
natural ecosystem. Positioned in the western reaches of the city, it serves as a pivotal catchment for the
urban expansion emanating from Metro Manila. This barangay boasts a strategic location and close
proximity to Metro Manila, rendering it a promising nucleus for future urban development. With the
impending extension of the LRT Line 2 and the presence of sizable residential communities in the vicinity,
Barangay Mayamot is poised for significant growth and transformation. Within its natural context, this
barangay showcases distinctive land formations, and unique features, and holds a crucial role as an inter-
modal transportation hub.

10th slide

Zoning Regulations

The zoning regulations for Barangay Mayamot outline the allowable land uses and maximum building
densities/heights in the defined zones. Principal Uses and Accessory Uses are specified, emphasizing the
dominant role of Principal Uses. The provisions allow for the establishment of Accessory Uses to support
Principal Uses, either temporarily or permanently.

Mayamot, acting as the city's Central Business District, plays a crucial role in absorbing urban growth
overflow from Metro Manila. The anticipated growth, coupled with the upcoming LRT Line 2 extension
and high-intensity development at the Masinag junction, positions Mayamot as a significant urban
center and transport hub. This growth is expected to extend into neighboring Barangays Cupang and
Mambugan, creating a more compact urban area. The existing substantial residential communities in
Mayamot, Cupang, and Mambugan will benefit from in-fill development, enhancing connectivity and
accessibility. The zoning regulations emphasize compatibility within zones, ensuring the cumulative
effect of zoning is intra-zonal and not inter-zonal.

Existing Scenarios-Conditions/Issues-Concerns on The UDDA

13th slide

Current Scenarios

Barangay Mayamot stands as a major urban center and transport hub in Antipolo City, recognized for its
strategic location and proximity to Metro Manila. The presence of large residential areas contributes to
its significance, maintaining the highest centrality index among Antipolo's barangays. With the ongoing
construction of the LRT Line 2 extension and high-intensity development, Mayamot is poised to further
enhance its role as a major urban center. Antipolo's Comprehensive Land Use Plan aims to establish safe,
livable communities, but the concentration of development in lower areas raises concerns about future
traffic issues and parking inadequacies, emphasizing the need for careful urban planning.

Issues and Concerns

The current scenario of the CBD in Barangay Mayamot reveals several challenges, including a lack of
open spaces, non-PWD-friendly pedestrian access and falls short of government standards, insufficient
green spaces, sprawl in business stalls, and inadequate planning of spaces in relation to their spatial
relationships. Additionally, the hilly terrain poses a small risk of landslides, especially in the western part
with numerous hills and the east side which is more like big mountains from the Sierra Madre range,
while perennial flooding issues persist due to creek and river swell during poor drainage conditions.
Addressing these concerns is crucial for the sustainable development of the CBD.
