WHAT IS COMPREHENSIVE LAND USED PLAN?

THE COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN (CLUP) IS A GUIDING DOCUMENT

FOR THE DEVELOPMENT AND LAND USE MANAGEMENT OF A SPECIFIC
AREA, SUCH AS A CITY, MUNICIPALITY, OR REGION. ITS KEY COMPONENTS
INCLUDE ZONING AND LAND USE DESIGNATIONS, INFRASTRUCTURE AND
TRANSPORTATION PLANNING, ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION AND
NATURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENT, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND
HOUSING STRATEGIES, AS WELL AS DISASTER RISK REDUCTION AND
CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION MEASURES. THE PREPARATION OF A
CLUP INVOLVES EXTENSIVE CONSULTATION WITH STAKEHOLDERS,
INCLUDING GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, LOCAL COMMUNITIES, AND PRIVATE
SECTOR ENTITIES. IT SERVES AS A VALUABLE TOOL FOR LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS TO EFFECTIVELY MANAGE LAND USE, PROMOTE
SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT, AND BALANCE THE NEEDS OF VARIOUS
SECTORS WITHIN THEIR JURISDICTION.

HOW IS A CLUP DIFFERENT FROM OTHER LOCAL

PLANS REQUIRED FROM LOCAL GOVERNMENT
UNITS?

THE COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN (CLUP) CENTERS ON LONG-TERM

LAND USE MANAGEMENT, ZONING REGULATIONS, AND SPATIAL
DEVELOPMENT, INCORPORATING THOROUGH STAKEHOLDER
CONSULTATION. IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE CLUP, OTHER LOCAL PLANS,
INCLUDING THE COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT PLAN (CDP),
COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT INVESTMENT PLAN (CDIP), LOCAL
DEVELOPMENT PLAN (LDP), AND DISASTER RISK REDUCTION AND
MANAGEMENT PLAN (DRRMP), ADDRESS WIDER FACETS OF
DEVELOPMENT, INVESTMENT PRIORITIES, GOVERNANCE, AND DISASTER
RISK MANAGEMENT. TOGETHER, THEY CONTRIBUTE TO THE HOLISTIC AND
SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT UNIT (LGU).
WHAT IS THE PROCESS IN COMPLETING A CLUP?

THE PROCESS OF COMPLETING A COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN

(CLUP) INVOLVES SEVERAL KEY STEPS, INCLUDING:

INITIATION AND ORIENTATION

DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS
STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION
PREPARATION OF THE LAND USE PLAN

WITH STAKEHOLDERS ARE CRUCIAL TO ENSURE THAT THE CLUP
REFLECTS THE COMMUNITY'S NEEDS AND ASPIRATIONS WHILE
PROMOTING SUSTAINABLE AND INCLUSIVE DEVELOPMENT.

WHAT PRINCIPLE AND APPROACHES ARE

CONSIDERED IN THE CLUP?
