The Comprehensive Land Use Plan (2015-2024) of the Municipality of Tiaong, Quezon
is designed to chart the growth and development of the locality and it’s
ultimate aim is for economic development and upliftment of the
quality of life of the town’s people. The plan also makes some
important issues on land uses, the present state of our environment
and the people who harnessed the resources.
The orderly use of controlled development will mean not sacrificing the full use of our
land resources; we must take into consideration places for settlements,
commercial, industrial, agricultural, forest and other special uses.
The main feature of the municipality is also reflected in the plan with provision of the
Socio Economic and Physical Profile. Development planning is very
much conceptualized in the sense that it embodied a huge deal of
analysis.
The balance development of Agri-Industrial cum Tourism as the main vision of

development that the municipality pushed thru. It is when then a
meaningful analysis that creates this document, having the love of
nature’s pristine beauty. Tiaong will emerge triumphant and success.
In this planning period, the importance of mainstreaming the Disaster Risk Reduction
Management (DRRM) and Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment

many individuals, organizations, local and national agencies.
We are also grateful to HLURB personnel and their support staff for sharing their

I. BRIEF PROFILE
A. Brief History
More than three hundred years ago, Tiaong was only a part of the municipality of San
Pablo (now a city) in the province of Laguna. It is bounded by San Antonio, Quezon
from the south; San Pablo City from the north; Dolores, Quezon from the northeast;
Lipa City from the west and Candelaria, Quezon from the east. In 1691, Tiaong
became an independent municipality through the efforts of a philanthropic,
humanitarian nationalistic and a very religious woman living at the outskirts of the
town called “Lalig”. She was popularly known as “Donya Tating” whose habitual
chores was to go to church everyday riding a cart drawn by a big black bull. Due to her
sympathetic gesture and attitude most especially among the poor, she was dearly
loved and respected by the people. Even the parish priest would not start the mass
not unless the loud mooing of the bull- “Ooooong” can be heard while entering the
churchyard.
The townspeople as a symbol of their gratitude and affection to the benevolent lady,
loved to be called Donya Tating as “Tiya” (Auntie). The admirable address of “Tiya”
and the favorable sound of “Ooooong” merged together gave name to the
municipality of Tiaong. Henceforth, this town is called Tiaong (Tiya-ong).
The town proper was then established 4 kilometers south of the present site along a
river called “Malaking Ilog”. Raiding pirates frequently attacked the Poblacion burning
houses, killing people and animals as well as destroying properties. Several
appearances of the image of St. John the Baptist at the present church site made the
people decide to transfer the Poblacion to where it is presently located. The people
sorrounded the town with deep trenches and with pointed bamboo stakes enclosure.
A watch-tower made of stones was erected to detect and ward-off the raiding pirates.
The local government during the Spanish time was headed by a Gobernadorcillo who
was the Local Chief Executive assisted by a Tenyente Mayor, a Juez de Sementera, a
Juez de Ganados, a Juez de Palayan and a Juez de Polisya. They were elected by nine
prominent, influential and authoritative persons under the supervision of the
Governador General.
The first Gobernadorcillo was Don Francisco Magdami in 1691. The church was built
by Franciscan Missionaries in the 1670, erected northeast of the town confronting
Burgos St. now Escudero St. This church is one of the oldest, longest and biggest
church in the province of Tayabas (now Quezon).
Majority of the town’s inhabitants are Roman Catholic though there are some
Protestants, Iglesia ni Cristo, “Sabadista”, Esperitista, and other religious sects.
Most of the people of Tiaong are Batanguenos coming from the province of Batangas,
particularly from the town of San Jose, Ibaan, Rosario, Bauan, Taal and Lipa City.

Tiaong is more or less 16,838 hectares. Originally, there were only 14 barrios namely:
Bana, Bula, Bulakin, Cabatang, Cabay, Lagalag,, Lalig, Lusacan, Paiisa, Quipot, Buliran,
Callejon, Niing and Pury. The last four barrios were seperated when Buliran became
an independent municipality on October 15, 1957 and was then named San Antonio,
Quezon. Candelaria was once a part of Tiaong but Dolores, historically speaking, was
separated from the town of San Pablo to became a municipality in 1879. However, in
1901, during the American regime, Dolores was made a “barrio” of Tiaong, but after
nine years, in April 11, 1910, Dolores was reverted to a municipality.
The first school was organized by the friars which was housed in a convent. Only male
pupils from 7 to 14 years of age were admitted. The subjects taught were Cartilya
Kristiano, Trisagio, Holy Rosary and Infants Manual which can only be printed with
permission of the Archbishop of Manila. After 50 years, female pupils of same age
group were allowed to enroll when the Gobernor General ordered the friars not to
solemnize marriages unless they have learned to pray.
Sources of income and livelihood of the people from 1690 to 1790 was agriculture.
The Juez de Sementera required the people to plant palay, corn and mongo, etc. At
the same time, animal raising was encouraged especially horses, cows and carabaos.
Most males were engaged in blacksmith work to make garden and carpentry tools
while the female did the weaving, flour making from cassava, uraro and mani while
others engaged in extracting oil from coconut and lumbang seeds. Cooking
supplemental foods like rice-cakes, suman, etc. and delicacies such as panutsa,
bukayo etc. were also encourages.
During the Spanish regime, a secret revolutionary group was organized in Tiaong. It
was affiliated to the K.K.K. of Andres Bonifacio and led by Ladislao Masangkay and
other brave nationalistic men of the municipality. This group fought the Spaniards and
continued their heroic ventures up to the American occupation.
On January 14, 1900, American invaders under the command of Gen. Schwan
conquered the municipality of Tiaong. The United States established it first civil
government in the Philippines with William Howard Taft as the first Civil Governor of
the island while Don Pedro P. Cantos, was appointed as the first Municipal President
of Tiaong.

1- co-terminus employees and 11elective officials .

B. Demographic Profile
The population of a given planning area is the most vital and important factor in
planning. The increases in population size/characteristics are basis for coming up for
services/facilities to be developed, harnessed and fully utilized.
The normative development needs of the area in term of spatial dimension can only
be measured in term of demography.
Population dimension of development and conduct of a comprehensive study of the

areas. Population is the single beginning step to every program/project initiative of
the LGU. This particular study shall then serve as a take off point in plan formulation
and implementation.
Majority of the data is of secondary in nature having been obtained from the National
Statistics Office particularly the 1995 – 2010 census of Housing and Population. The
mathematical method and participation rate method were utilized in the projection.
Actual interview were also conducted to residents of the area, the Local Government
Employees/Officials, the Chief of Offices and the Barangay Captains were also
consulted. The response of the NGO’s been relatively positive and encouraging to
note their cooperation for coming up with an honest to goodness plan.

The full development at San Pablo City has made the growth of population of Tiaong
into a high level of 2.14 percent per annum from 1995 to 2010. Highest growth was
registered in 1970 censal year, this can be attributed to the negative growth in 1960.

64 with 46,491 populace or 46.76% of the total population is second larger group.
Meanwhile, old dependent population has the less number which is equivalent to

4,440 or 4.47% of the total populations.
As to distribution, there are 50,033 males and 49,389 females of the total populations
of 99,424. Sex ratio is 1:013 which is male dominating female by 1, meaning for every

LAND USE TREND
The trend observed in the land use of the municipality is from 2000 to 2014. There
has been a continuous increase in the urban uses areas. These uses include
residential, commercial, institutional, infrastructure and utilities, parks and
playgrounds and industrial areas. Figures in 2000 showed that areas occupied by
these various land uses total to 446.04 hectares. There is a 92.91% increase in 2014.
Table No.6 presents the land use trend from 2000-2014.
There is a noticeable decrease in agricultural area from 2000-2014, primarily caused

by urbanization in the recent years. Due to the need for settlement, much of the
municipality’s agricultural areas have been converted to residential, commercial, and
institutional uses. The opening of farm to market roads in Barangays Anastacia,
Talisay, San Pedro and Lumingon contributed to the decrease in agricultural areas.
Areas considered as forest/idle-open grasslands in 2000 total to 865 hectares. Much

of these areas have been developed. Today, considered forest areas total to 311.93
hectares or a decrease of 553.07 hectares. Portions of these areas are in Barangays
Bukal, Aquino and Ayusan II.

F. Infrastructures, Facilities and Utilities
Transportation Network
As an entry point of Quezon in the North, Tiaong serves as pass through way for
automobile vehicles from Manila going to Southern part of Quezon, Bicol Region and
even Visayas area. There is also a railway in Tiaong which lies along Brgy. Lalig thru
Brgy. Lagalag. This railway was operated by Philippine National Railways (PNR) for its
train operation from Manila going to Bicol region and Vice-versa. However, PNR
currently stops its operations leaving the said railway non-operational since 2006.
Meanwhile, the Department of Transportation and Communication has a master plan

for the revival of rail service in Luzon. It will reach Cagayan province in the north and
Sorsogon in the south. It is called NORTH-SOUTH RAILWAY PROJECT (NSRP), the
southern portion of the master plan has two segments; one (1) from Tutuban to
Calamba and the other is from Manila to Legazpi with extensions to Batangas and
Matnog. If the project materializes, proposed completion is on 2020, railway will be
the best modes of transportation in the locality in terms of long drives.
Furthermore, Tiaong do not have shorelines or coastal area so it does not have
seaports and any other transport facilities other than roads and railways.
Roads and Bridges
The municipality has a total road network of 70.703 kms. of which 9.28 kms.(29.45%)
are national Road, 21.672 kms. (30.65%) provincial road, 7.130 (10.08%) municipal
road, 15.382 (21.76%) barangay roads and 5.7 (8.06%) NIA roads. Current road land
area ratio is 1.51:1 which is above the standard requirement of 1.5 kilometers road
per 1000 hectares of arable land (1.15:1).

Figure 1: TRANSPORTATION TERMINAL, 2014

Vulnerability of Transportation Facilities to various hazards
In the event of a natural disaster emergence, disruption is certain to bring a large

impact in many aspects of the way of living in the community, including that of
the economic and social well being of the locality. One of the most commonly
affected components, besides the population, is the infrastructure projects.
Although it may be exposed at a lower risk during calamity, compared to other

infrastructures around, the transportation system can also be subjected to
catastrophic events at times, both natural and human-induced, and such
disturbances can have its critical effects as well and may compromise the
security of the populace. It is imperative that transportation systems operate
under well defined conditions. Hence, sustainable and sound road
infrastructures, road networks, a carefully zoned and designated transport
facilities must be in place.
Geographically, Tiaong is a landlocked area surrounded by two provinces,

Batangas and Laguna and neighboring municipalities also in Quezon. Being so,
our municipality is spared from having the wealth of bodies of water that other
towns are blessed with. On the flip side it is an advantage for us for we do not
confront a multitude od hazards, that it brings come the wrath of nature during
storms or other forms of extreme weather events. Tiaong is fortunately situated
in a zone that is free of fault lines. Although it is neighbors with the province of
Laguna, known to carry the West Valley Fault Line, its exposure would not be as
critically dangerous, but still on the look out for tectonic activities especially the
Big One.
What can be deduced from the scenarios above mentioned is that this
municipality is fairly blessed with a topography that is of low vulnerability to
natural calamities although it is not entirely free from it. On the other hand,
what common disturbances being faced within this town are man made
disasters, specifically road accidents due to human error. But apart from this,
Tiaong has reasonably elevated its mitigating process into a condition where the
situation is easily controlled whenever catastrophe arises.
Part of the order that is practiced in this town is the designation of a unified
transport terminal for all public transits travelling in and out of the municipality,
going to different barangays and nearby towns. This reduces the vulnerability of
the transportation modes, terminal and users to any harm, accidents or natural
disasters. The new public market serves as its station away from the town proper
to avoid traffic congestion.

Improved road works serves as factor for the orderly status of how things are
moving in Tiaong. As a result of the road widening project of national
government, part of the Maharlika Highway traversing our locality are fortified
enough to withstand the impacts of nature and human encounters, thus it added
to our measures to mitigate disasters. Further, with the presence of the by-pass
road and the emergence of TR4 in the near future, an alternative access is
outlined that paralysis of transportation system can be avoided a high scale
natural disaster strike in any given time,
But to fully face certain circumstances and to ensure that risks are substantially
reduced, the MDRRMO is not solely relying on the constancy of the nature of
occurrences around the municipality but exercising flexibility on the situation
that they face on a daily basis. Also to tackle the events auspiciously they depend
on a reliable contingency plan focused on the transportation system
development.

H. Social Services (facilities/utilities/amenities)
Health
The Rural Health Units and private clinics had been conducting medical consultations for
the past years. Public health services include free delivery for pregnant mothers at
government birthing homes, and cater mothers with Philhealth Care Benefits (with
MDR). There are also private birthing homes in the locality, 1 in Brgy. Lagalag and one in
Brgy. Talisay.
Other services offered by RHU are the usual daily consultations, dental care and
extraction, immunizations, family planning methods provisions and counselling,
laboratory services, TB care services, injections, nebulization of asthmatics and minor
surgery and ambulance services for emergency need.

municipality and the common objective of the Social Reform Agenda. The municipality,
thus, gives necessary protection and rehabilitation for the socially disabled constituents,
conducts social preparation for people’s participation and community mobilization.
Provision of self-employment assistance to the different needy sectors of the
community is properly made.
In the Philippines, social services, handled by the Department of Social Welfare and
Development (DSWD), and now a devolved agency, is being represented in the
municipality through the Municipal Social and Development Office and other social
services through the Day Care Centers municipal wide.
The Office of the MSWD primarily functioned to respond to the challenge of protecting
and integrating the people in marginalized conditions, families that are fragmenting, and
the poor. The office has responded very well in improving the quality of life of the
people.
MSWDO is being managed by three (3) registered Social Workers with 36 Day care
centers and 36 Day care workers. Day service for elderly are also available in different
barangays.
Social Welfare Facilities, Services and Clientele

one (31) barangays, most centers are fair and good condition but there are some
centers that need immediate repair. Most Senior Citizens building are in good
condition. These areas serve as spaces for various activities and meetings of senior
citizens in the municipality. However, the Office of the Senior Citizen’s Affairs (OSCA)

Concerning Classroom and Teachers’ Needs, the municipality of Tiaong, Quezon

supports the needs for additional teachers and school buildings. Although the
municipality has 35 schools, 28 Elementary Schools and 7 Secondary Schools, there is
still a need for additional teachers and classroom for both school levels. This is
because of the continuous increase in student population as the years gone by. At
presents, we already have 574 number of public school teachers and 489 classrooms.
However, these numbers do not suffice the needs of every learner. There is still a
need for 309 additional classrooms and 224 new teachers at the end of the planning
period.
Teacher’s assumption is base on 1:40 for elementary schools and 1:45 for secondary
schools. Meanwhile, classroom assumption is based on atleast 1.4 square meter per
student or atleast 63 square meter classroom area occupied by 40 students per
classroom in elementary level and 45 students per classroom for secondary school.

Sports and Recreation
The most popular sports preference not only among the youth, but also of the old
populace is basketball. Evidence to which is the number of basketball courts in the
municipality. Cockfighting aficionados avail of a venue at Barangay Lalig.
Lawn tennis is also a way of spending free time among the youth and middle aged
population. A tennis court located at the municipal plaza is being used for the purpose.
A movie house is no longer operating, but the advent of advance communication

technology enabled the people to enjoy Cable Television, Video Compact disk, and
recreation from other places.
The existing municipal plaza, CM Recto Memorial playground, Lusacan High School
Playground and Church Patio are only some of the open spaces available presently.
A yearly sports festival being conducted by the DepEd produced quality athletes and

metric tons for the year 2014. Coconut tops the list at 5,276,279 m.t. followed by citrus
at 20,544.96 m.t. and banana at 7,729.3 m.t. , fruits at 7,405.58 m.t. , rice at 6,767 m.t.
and vegetables at 5,119.12 m.t. . The high crop yield especially rice is due to double
cropping brought by the favorable weather condition during the last half of 2014.
Upland crops like fruits and vegetables, root crops and banana gained favorably from
the good weather.
This rice produced are sold to rice millers in Tiaong and nearby towns and eventually
dispersed to the local markets of Tiaong. Part of their harvest goes directly to the
farmers themselves as payment or share in the farming work. Crops like fruits &
vegetables, root crops, corn, mango and banana are sold directly by farmers to the
market or to individual buyers. About 3,268 farmers are working in the different crop
planting in the municipality.

Livestock and Poultry
Being a highly agricultural economy, the municipality has 430 carabaos used for
farming of which 49 heads are in Brgy Tagbakin, and 34 heads in Barangay Bula and
Anastacia. Cattle is also a major livestock being raised by most farmers with a total of
2,067 heads. These animals are raised either for breeding or fattening purposes. Brgy
Tagbakin and Brgy. Bulakin are among the barangays producing a large number of
cattle. Swine and native chicken, on the other hand, are commonly produced in the
backyard with a total of 4,859 and 37,045 heads, respectively. Goat raising is another
source of income of some farmers with Anastacia and Bulakin as the top barangay-
producing goats. Ducks are being raised commercially mainly for production of eggs.
Those which are raised in the backyard are used for home consumption.
Commercial production of poultry and livestock is also common in the municipality.

There are 54 poultry farms and 18 piggeries established in different barangays and a
dairy farm located in Brgy. Ayusan 1.

Fisheries and Aquaculture
As a landlocked municipality, Tiaong does not depend on fishing as a source of

livelihood. Most of its fishery products came from inland fresh water, such as rivers and
lake. Supply of Tilapia fish came from Tikub Lake where fish cages were put up and
being operated by fisher folks living near the lake. Other fresh water products are used
for home consumption. Tilapia fingerlings are also being raised in a 5-hectare farm
located in Barangay Palagaran.
Tikub Lake is the primary fishing ground in the municipality that could be found along
the boundaries of Barangay San Pedro and Ayusan 1. Eighty two (82) fish cages were
built within the lake being operated by twenty three fisherfolks in the locality. Tilapia
production may reach 121.5 metric tons per harvest which are being marketed in the
local market.

Forest lands
The forest area in the municipality accounts to 649.69 hectares which covers parts of
Barangays Aquino, Ayusan 2, and Bukal. This forest area is known as Mt. Malipunyo
which is a part of Malaraya Forest Reserve. Traversing along the foot of the mountain is
a privately owned land wherein 1 kilometer from the mountain boundaries outward will
be considered as the forest buffer zone and will be used for agroforestry.
Support Systems
Agricultural development and growth through increased productivity has been lodged
to the Office of the Municipal Agriculturist. The office extends educational and technical
assistance to farmers through information dissemination on technologies that would
upgrade breed of poultry and livestock and improved production techniques and
practices on rice and corn and vegetables farming.
Municipal Nursery is also being maintained by this office. Seedlings that are produced
are distributed to residents for backyard production or for small scale orchard
establishments. Most of the time, seedlings used for tree planting of different entities
are provided by the Municipal Nursery.
For effective delivery and extension of agricultural services, Farmers Associations (FA)
and Rural Improvement Clubs (RIC) were organized in different barangays and are
provided with trainings, seminars and other activities that would enhance the capability
of farmers and homemakers on different fields of agriculture.
Physical Infrastructure
Agricultural projects and activities, however, can be attended immediately depending

on the availability of farm equipment and facilities. On the production aspect, irrigation
facilities are available in almost all rice producing barangays. National Irrigation
Administration (NIA) had established irrigation sources in six (6) barangays, namely:
Brgys. Palagaran, Paiisa, San Isidro, San Jose, Tagbakin, and some parts in Brgy.

Anastacia covering almost 6,096 hectares of rice farm.
Communal irrigation system provides water supply in most areas in other barangays
producing rice. There are farmers who owned Shallow Tube Wells (STW) and water
pumps to support their needs for irrigation. Presence of farm and hand tractors, power
tillers, power sprayers, and other production tools and equipment enable farmers to
increase their production.
Agricultural inputs and harvest are being brought to and from the market through Farm-
to-Market Road (FMR) established in different points in the barangay. These FMR are
either cemented or feeder road and earth condition in remote places.
Post harvest facilities such as thresher for rice, corn sheller, multipurpose drying
pavement (MPDP), flat bed dryer (FBD), palay shed, rice mills and feed mills are also
available in the municipality.

K. Waste Management
Volume of Solid Waste Generation by Source
The 2014 report of MENRO showed that almost three (3) tons of biodegradable and
three (3) tons of non-biodegradable wastes came from the four (4) urban barangays,
Poblacion I, II, III & IV, and three(3) nearby rural barangays, Brgy. Quipot, Lalig &
Lumingon, and from the Tiaong Public Market which are collected everyday and
dumped at the ecological park in Brgy. San Agustin.
Figure 15: ECOLOGICAL PARK/MATERIAL RECOVERY FACILITY (MRF)
Methods of Solid Waste Disposal/Treatment
Sustainable ecological soundness through resource conservation, environmental

protection, and adaptation of technologies for cleaner, greener, and less waste is the
long term agenda of the municipality.
The municipality acquired one (1) hectare Material Recovery Facility (MRF) located at
Brgy. San Agustin. The Ecological Park was developed through information
dissemination and symposium pursuant to the full implementation of R.A. 9003. The
Solid Waste Management is being managed by the Senior Environmental Management
supervisor under the Municipal Agriculturist Office.

All collected solid waste are brought in the area everyday for sorting and segregation.
An estimated of two to three tons of bio wastes (mostly garden waste) every day are
being dumped at the end portion of Ecological Park and natural composting are being
done.
Final sorting is being conducted at Sorting Area. 30-35% of waste are recovered (mostly
plastics) and pulverized. Pulverized plastics are used as one of the components for
hollow block making. 50% of recovered and stored at MRF for selling as recyclable
materials. The remaining 15-20% are residual wastes and being piled and stuck at the
end portion of eco-park.
Less than a ton of biodegradable wastes undergo shredding and composting process
which is being conducted at public market.
Wastewater Generation by Source and Treatment Disposal
There is no existing comprehensive sewer system in the municipality, rather, each

housing unit is required to have their own septic tank/leaching chamber before their
waste-water is released to the storm drainage system. Private extractors are called in
whenever their septic tanks have reached full capacity. Likewise, industrial
establishments are required to have their own water treatment system. Up to this
date, some industrial establishments still has not complied with the provision and
deliberately release their untreated waste-water into the river polluting it. But the
different government agencies are always quick to react to this malpractice and a
number of violators have been summoned and fined and/or penalized.
Composting/ Management of Biodegradable Wastes
Vermi-composting technology will be adopted by each barangay for the management

of their biodegradable wastes. They may opt to sell the vermicast or give as subsidy to
their farmers as a complementary project of the Municipal Government in promoting
organic farming. Vermicast can also be used by each barangay in their Gulayan sa
Bakuran and/or Gulayan sa Paaralan Project which is one of the major programs of
Quezon First 1000 days of Life and Barangay Nutrition Scholars and Office of the
Provincial Agriculturist.
The Municipal Government will continue provide technical and financial assistance in
the lay-out and management of vermin-beds.
Marketing and Market Development
The LGU envisions to have an efficient and effective compost production from
biodegradable wastes received at the MRF. Produced vermicast will be tested at
STIARC for NPK/MC Analysis. This will be sold at a competitive price among the

farmers that prefer to use organic fertilizer.
Tiaong shall also develop its municipal and barangay level organic garden using the
compost. Cost recovery will also be considered; hence; this will be for sale.
Upon development of the institutional set up of SWM at the barangay level, the
barangays will now handle the recyclable materials. Ordinances shall be passed hat
only the barangay will buy the recyclable materials and the barangay will sell these to
the junkshops.
The profits will be part of the local swm fund.

diapers and nappies are manageable at present, it will soon need expansion of facility
for continuing increase in volume.

Alternative Technologies for Residual Wastes
The Municipal Government will continue to make Cement Hollow Block with
pulverized plastics and other residual waste will be buried and/ or brought to sanitary
landfill while continue to research for alternative technologies for proper disposal of
residual wastes.

Sanitary Landfill
A proposed area for sanitary landfill will be purchased upon approval of the site by
MGB. Once approved, ECC will be applied. An estimated 800 kilograms of residual
wastes per day will be disposed.
Information, Education and Communication
The social marketing strategy will be implemented by the LGU. This strategy will not
only aim at informing the general public but will also instill appreciation of ecological
solid waste management.
All sectors will targeted on a scheduled basis. Meeting shall be conducted per sector.
Establishment of MRFs within the schools will also be required to ensure that the
wastes are recovered. This will also increase the diversion rate of the municipality.
Designated area for solid waste storage will be required in all commercial and
industrial establishments. This will also be done in the institutions aside from the
school.
All IEC materials will contain target audience, specific program and theme that the

program will address including the details based on the annotated outline.
Special Wastes, Health Care and Toxic & Hazardous Wastes
Special wastes inventory shall also be conducted by the MENRO as part of the WACS.
Based on the results, the capacity of the storage facility and schedule for the
collection and treatment of such wastes shall be identified. Treatment and disposal
will be the responsibility of the generators. Accredited treaters will be selected and
contracted for the treatment and disposal of these wastes.
Implementation Strategy
Framework
The barangay shall create the Barangay Solid Waste Management

Committee that will prepare and implement the program for the collection
and management of biodegradable and recyclable wastes.
At the LGU level, the Municipal Solid Waste Management Board shall be
strengthened to perform its functions. The ten-year SWM plan shall be the
roadmap of the municipality in implementing SWM. Coordination between

O. Comparative Advantages and Competitive Edge
Tiaong being the gateway to Quezon located along maharlika highway and situated
deep in the coconut region of Southern Luzon is feasible to give balance agricultural,
industrial and commercial development and is accessible through the South Luzon
Expressway (SLEX) and abot 96 kilometers away from international airports and port.
Tiaong is still suitable for the production of various agricultural products/crops and
has vast tracts of land for development. There is strict implementation of ordinances
regarding protection of environment. Waste management system properly
implemented and presence of Material Recovery Facility (MRF).
As a business friendly municipality, Tiaong has maintained peace and order in the
community. It maintains a one-stop-shop for business permit applications, where it
takes only a day to have a permit.
Tiaong takes pride in its potential natural tourist attractions and a very promising
industrial location. Expansion of South Luzon Toll Road 4 will passed along Barangays
Lalig, Bulakin, Anastacia, Cabatang and Lagalag surely open opportunity for
industrialization.
P. Functional Role of the Municipality
Quezon province is currently updating/enhancing its Provincial Physical and

Framework Plan. It identified the municipality of Tiaong to be designated for
industrial purposes, wherein requirements mandated by the PEZA are present in the
area such as existing infrastructure, available land for industrial purposes and skilled
workers. Tiaong is also considered as small city for it is the center of trade and
commerce in its congressional area.

I. THE COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN
A. Vision, Mission, Goals And Objectives
VISION
“We envision a progressive, clean and peaceful community that

will become the center of tourism and agri-industrial trade.
It will be home to God-loving, humane, and environment-loving
People who are unified and helpful towards each other.
Its people shall live in decent standards, and they will be
Guided by honest, knowledgeable, competent and principled
leaders who are ready to serve their constituents at all time”
MISSION
“To serve the people with honesty in order to achieve our goals
and aims for a more progressive and unified
Citizenry of Tiaong”

GOALS
A peaceful community that supports a well balanced ecosystem
A progressive municipality which is committed to attain a sustainable

development for a better life for its citizenry
A responsive governance that promotes transparency and accountability.

An agri-industrial soaring municipality.
As one of prime tourist destination in the region.
Minimize the conversion of existing irrigable areas or Farmlands & the
loss of critical habitat areas especially forest.
Protect and restore the natural hydrology of the watershed & flow
characteristic of its stream & tributaries for irrigation purposes.
OBJECTIVES
To promote the efficient utilization, acquisition and disposition of land

and ensure the highest and best use of land.
To allocate land for settlements, industries and other urban uses on

land least suitable for agricultural and farming uses.
To facilitate access of population to social services, facilities and

amenities
To facilitate mobility and communication of and between people,

goods and services within the municipality and travel to and from
settlement areas outside of the municipality through an efficient road
network.
To maintain and preserve environmental stability and integrity, as

well as ecological balance.
To encourage overall sustainable development with sound economic

progress and human security
To encourage shared responsibility between the local government

and the private sector in the development and management of the
municipality’s physical resources.
To include environmental quality protection measures into the

development review process particularly run-off, stream protection,

air quality & noise.
B. Development Strategies
Linear developments will likewise increase along major roads as in national, provincial
and selected barangay roads. This is aimed at promoting compact and orderly
developments along the roads.
The strategy covers the development of residential, commercial, institutional and

other light intensity uses that will be allowed on both sides of the national, provincial,
municipal or barangay roads. This is aimed to facilitate the accessibility and mobility of
people and commodities along existing routes.
Being one of the recipients for the construction of Toll Road 4, industrial activities are
forseen in the municipality, but 200 meters on both sides of the road is still observed
for preserving agricultural land use of interior lots. TR4 passes along Barangays Lalig,
Bulakin, Anastacia, Cabatang and Lagalag.
The land use plan for Tiaong will cover the planning period 2015-2024. The spatial
requirements of the various sectors have been considered.
C. Development Concept And Structure Plan
The spatial development concepts identified for the municipality of Tiaong is the
combined development options, the linear urban form and multi-nodal form. These
options will lead to a well-developed Tiaong up to end of the planning period in 2024.
The linear urban form, also known as the ribbon or the strip development is
characterized by concentration of development along both sides of major
transportation routes such as roads or other forms of transport network.
The multi-nodal urban form re-directs development away from the urban core toward
identified urban growth areas or nodes.
The entire Poblacion shall be the Central Business District. Development shall be
allowed along major roads but limited to residential, commercial and institutional
uses only. Urban influence areas include portion of Quipot, Lumingon, Lusacan and
Lalig.
Portions of Barangay San Pedro and Ayusan I shall be developed for tourism purposes.
Area for IT Park and Business Center and related activities will be at Barangay
Lumingon.
Burial land will be maintained at Barangay Quipot with proposed extension at

Barangay San Agustin and Cabay.
The forest conservation area found in portions of Barangays Ayusan II, Aquino and
Bukal shall be retained.

To meet the housing requirements due to increase in population, residential areas
such as subdivision, housing projects will be extended to Barangay Lumingon,
Barangay Bulakin, Barangay Lalig, Barangay Tagbakin, Barangay Lagalag, Brgy. Ayusan
1 & 2, Barangay Cabay and Barangay Talisay.
Strategic Agriculture and Fishery Development Zones (SAFDZ) will cover portions of
Barangay Ayusan 1 and Ayusan 2 were previously identified under SAFDZ and
additional areas had placed under this protected zone. These are Brgys. San Jose,
Paiisa, Tagbakin, Cabay, Bula, Tamisian and Bukal where palay as their main crop.
Barangays Del Rosario and San Juan where vast supply of coconut and banana can be
found, Brgys. Behia and San Francisco for producing great quantity of citrus. These
barangays will continuously be engaged in agricultural activities and will be provided
with government support programs to ensure productivity and food security in the
municipality. Only 10% of the agricultural area will be allowed for conversion on a
basis that conversion will not hamper productivity and will be environmentally and
economically sound.
Infrastructure utilities like transport terminals will be established at Barangay Lalig to

improve traffic situation and provide convenience to travelers. Opening of farm to
market road in different barangays to facilitate transport of agricultural products and
other commodities and accessibility to the public will be established. In addition, a
bridge connecting barangay San Francisco and San Juan will be constructed to drove
accessibility. There is also a proposed Highway of National Government traversing Brgy.
Ayusan and Bukal going to the Municipality of San Antonio down to Lipa City, Batangas;
and proposed diversion road to address the new industrial areas along TR4 by
connecting Brgy. Cabatang road and Tiaong-Dolores road which is both classified as
provincial roads.
Ecological park shall be maintained in the existing location at Brgy. San Agustin with
proposed Sanitary Landfill in compliance to RA 9003.
Industrial areas will be at Barangays Bulakin, Anastacia, Cabatang, Lagalag, Lalig, Cabay,
Del Rosario, part of Lusacan and including portion of Lumingon for Business Process
Outsourcing (BPOs).
The municipality regulates the construction and operation of additional poultry

buildings due to their argumentative effect on the local populace. Agri-business
operators are allowed only to invest in this municipality provided they use the modern
tunnel vent/ CCS4 adaptive poultry buildings; and the hog producers on condition that
they reduce the volume of waste with the use of bio-gas digesters. This activity will be at
barangays San Pedro, Behia, Aquino, Bukal, Bula and San Francisco.

D. The Land Use Plan
The development thrust established for the municipality of Tiaong is agri-

industrialization cum tourism.
Being an agricultural municipality, agricultural development should be intensified.

Considering that about 82.2% or equivalent to 13,840.30 hectares of the total land
area is devoted to agriculture, it is the concern of the local government to enhance
agricultural production. Prime agricultural lands should be protected to ensure and
address the local food requirements of its population.
The local government shall provide the required support physical infrastructure and
services such as irrigation facilities, farm to market roads, credit/lending facilities,
among others, should be readily available to farmers.
For tourism development, potential areas are portion of Barangay San Pedro where
Tikub Lake is situated. Lalig has some tourism potential areas to be developed with
high end residential areas that would attract retirees to build vacation houses. Same
with barangay Ayusan I and barangay Aquino, but shall maintain its existing crops
plantation.
On the agri- industrialization and businesses aspect, locators should be encouraged to

provide or put in place mitigating measures to control pollution and address the
impact from its operation. An CCS4 adaptive building for commercial poultry and one
(1) kilometer radius away from the existing agri-business are required. Protection of
the community and the environment should be the concern of the local government.
BASES FOR FUTURE REQUIREMENTS
To come up with the quantified land requirements up to 2024, the HLURB enhanced
planning guidelines and standards were utilized. The increase in population from 2015
to 2024 would warrant an increase in land use requirements.
The net increase in population and households also serve as bases for land
quantification.

Table 31: CURRENT and PROJECTED POPULATION for 2014 AND 2024
POPULATION 2014 2024 NET INCREASE
TOTAL POPULATION 99,424 122,029 22,605
TOTAL URBAN 4,291 5,266 975

TOTAL RURAL POPULATION 95,133 116,763 21,630
TOTAL HOUSEHOLD 19,885 24,761 4,876
TOTAL URBAN HOUSEHOLD 858 1,053 195
TOTAL RURAL HOUSEHOLD 19,027 23,708 4,681
Source: MPDC office
The following standards were adopted in this plan:
1. Residential – an average lot size of 240 square meters per household

based on net increase
2. Commercial – 3% of the total built-up area
3. Institutional – 5 hectares for every 15,0000 population
4. Industrial – 4.0 hectares for every 1,000 population
5. Functional Open Space –
Pocket parks of 2,000 square meters for rural barangay
Cemetery of 2.44 square meters per burial lot per death
6. MRF - one (1) hectare-meter per 30,000 population
7. Roads – 1.0 hectare per 100 hectares of arable lands
URBAN USE AREAS:

Residential
It is expected that with the progressive growth in number of industrial and

commercial establishments and development of Agri-Tourism attraction in the
municipality, there would be an increasing need for habitation to accommodate not
only the increasing populace, but also the migrating labor force coming from
neighboring municipalities.
Fortunately, there is sufficient space on the outskirts of the town proper available for
the purpose of expansion. For this purpose, an area of 305.25 hectares is allotted:
3.90 hectares for urban barangays and 301.35 hectares for rural barangays.

This will take care of the needs of the projected number of households based on the
net increase. The standard used was 240 square meters per household, to provide
ample areas for residential and other accessory use. These will also serve as
benchmark for expansion consideration.
Commercial
Commercial activities, particularly the major ones, are still intended for the urban core
or Poblacion area. It is one strategy to maintain and further strengthen the role of the
Poblacion as the Central Business District (CBD).
The municipality of Tiaong, Quezon has opened its door to local investors and those
from outside the municipality who believe in the budding potentials of the
municipality to become an emerging center of commerce being strategically located
between the provinces of Laguna and Batangas and being the Gateway to Quezon
province and Bicol Region. However, since the existing area does not suffice the land
allotted for commercial establishments, additional land requirement is recommended.
Considering the growth nodes, additional commercial areas shall likewise be allocated
in Barangays Lalig, Lusacan, Lumingon, Quipot and along national and provincial roads,
one lot depth from the edge of road right-of-way. Additional 284.34 hectares have
been allotted for the purpose.
Institutional
The existing institutional areas are adequate for the present population; however, the
influx of additional population may affect the efficient functioning of these
institutions. Thus, an additional 13.92 hectare has been allocated for this purpose .
Parks/Playgrounds and Other Recreational Spaces
It is proven that worthwhile recreation keeps people from the harmful effects of
illegal drugs and other vices. Although there is an increasing number of local folks who
have chosen to involve themselves in outdoor physical fitness activities, there is a
sufficient space for this purpose. It is, therefore, not deemed necessary to increase
but still a 5.60 hectares for the land intended for Parks/Playground and other
Recreational Spaces, and to develop and improve the existing facilities for this
purpose.
Parks and playgrounds are the only functional open spaces allocated in the Poblacion.
The Ala-ala Park in Barangay Poblacion III is still operational.

Infrastructures/Utilities
Tiaong is a fast-growing municipality as evidenced by the construction and operation

of new commercial and agri-industrial establishments. The Toll Road 4 (TR4) which will
begin its construction in the year 2019 is expected to attract investments both from
within and from outside the municipality. Since it is a business strategy to construct
commercial and industrial structures along a main highway, this will give rise to
construction of new service roads and bridges.
Using the standard of 1.0 km. per 100 hectares of arable lands, there is a need to
allocate about 6.18 hectares for rural roads. While the current rural roads would
suffice up to the end of the planning period, this does not mean that no more roads
will be opened. An access road linking the proposed Toll Road 4 (TR4) to the adjacent
barangays is being proposed. There’s also a proposal to build a bridge connecting
barangay San Francisco and barangay San Juan. Additional is the proposed highway
from Brgy. Ayusan passing through Brgy. Bukal down to Municipality of San Antonio
leading to Lipa City, Batangas which is about to start in 2020. For this purpose, an area
of 241.02 hectares is allotted.
Industrial
For economic reasons and in line with the thrust of the municipality, light to medium
intensity industries shall be encouraged. Additional 195.25 hectares shall be devoted
for these activities in portions of Barangays Bulakin, Anastacia, Cabatang, Lagalag,
Lalig, Cabay and Del Rosario. Light industries (Business Process Outsourcing) shall be
at Brgy. Lumingon. Strict observance of the protection of the environment should be
adhered to by projected locators.
AGRICULTURE
Tiaong, Quezon has massive agricultural lands, some parts of which are utilized to its
potential and other parts that are yet to be tilled to maximize their productivity. There
is more than enough land in the municipality utilized for agricultural purposes.
Being an agricultural municipality, the dominant land use is still agriculture. This is
inclusive of the Strategic Agriculture and Fishery Development Zones (SAFDZ) areas.
Out of the municipality’s total land area, 79.33% will be devoted to agriculture.
Hence, the need to intensify the agricultural production.
On the agri- industrialization and businesses aspect, locators should be encouraged to

provide or put in place mitigating measures to control pollution and address the
impact from its operation. An CCS4 adaptive building for commercial poultry and one
(1) kilometer radius away from the existing agi-business are required. Protection of
the community and the environment should be the concern of the local government.
No reclassification of agricultural land to other use shall be allowed within five (5)

years upon approval of this act.
However, if cannot be avoided, re-class of productive agricultural land should be strict

so production area for agriculture be retained.
Conversion shall comply DAR procedures and must acquire PCA

certification/clearance.
TOURISM
For tourism-related activities, the existing facilities shall be maintained. Tiaong has
many potential tourist spots that are yet to be exploited and developed. These areas
can be found in Barangays San Pedro, Ayusan I, Lusacan, Bulakin, Anastacia, Aquino
and Lalig. Aggregate area for tourism development is 11.93 hectares.
OTHER USES/CATEGORIES
Cemeteries
The municipality of Tiaong, Quezon has sufficient land intended for cemetery located
at Brgy. Quipot. Aside from the existing Catholic and Municipal cemeteries, there are
four (4) other private cemeteries that cater to the burial needs of the deceased.
However, only few can afford the expensive cost of burying their dead in private
cemeteries. To deal with this problem, the Local Government Unit of Tiaong plans to
purchase the available vacant lot 2.03 hectare land adjoining the municipal cemetery
for the said purpose. Another 1.0 hectare is allotted as substitute for the relocation of
existing catholic cemetery. Barangay Cabay and San Agustin are propose extension of
burial ground.
Sanitary Waste Management Facilities (Sanitary Landfills, STPs)
Tiaong is operating and maintaining a one-hectare Eco-Park. Among the waste

management activities thereon include composting and recycling of bio degradable
and non-bio degradable waste. Since it is expected to reach the maximum residual
waste volume capacity within the next 2 years, it is considered imperative to allot a
8.25 hectares parcel of land in its expansion program. Currently, the Local
Government Unit of Tiaong is negotiating with the owner of the land on the issue of
procuring their property.
Buffer Zones
Part of the forest area will be considered buffer zone. This area will cover one
kilometer from the Mount Malaraya Forest Reserve (MMFR) downward following the
contour of the mountain. Agro-forestry will be the only agricultural activity that will be

allowed in the buffer zone area. For this purpose, we allot the 311.93 hectares of the
municipal considered forest area.
WATER USES
Tourism(Recreation/Resorts)
Located in one of the barangays is a medium-sized lake called Tikub Lake. It serves as a
livelihood to the local folks because it is teeming with various marine life of economic
value. Shaped like a rim of a volcano, it offers an attraction to tourists. Although the
lake is often visited and admired by enthusiasts, the local government of Tiaong has
considered it to be developed into an agri-tourist attraction whose amenities include
biking and jogging trails.
One of the attractions of Villa Escudero Resort and Hotel is a small man-made lake
that is well-liked by tourists for boat-riding and line-fishing. This lake is actually an
excavated ground that is filled with water flowing from Labasin River. Constructed at
opposite side of the Labasin River is a dam that propels a generator set that supplies
part of the resort’s electric power need. The water flowing out from the dam runs
through Bulakin River.
Existing resorts contribute a total of 49 hectares.
Others (rivers)
There are various water bodies that traverse the municipality occupying 1,471.22
hectares. Easements set forth in the Water Code of the Philippines shall be strictly
observed.

Regarding the problem pertaining to private ownership of the
lands inside the strict protection zone which will obstruct the
efforts to completely rehabilitate the area in the interest of the
public, steps shall be taken to have said titles cancelled or
amended, or the titled area expropriated.

Private land owners whose lands are located inside the highly
protected zone must clear first with the LGU/DENR before any
development efforts on their property be implemented. If their
plan runs counter to the policies and regulations of the CLUP for
the general welfare of the public, then necessary steps shall be
undertaken to expropriate the land so as to preserve the area as
planned.
Regulate cutting of trees for firewood and charcoal
Implement DENR-DILG joint memorandum circular 98-01
Provide alternative livelihood for people who are economically
and physically displaced.
3. Private land in the mountain

All private landowners are required to maintain at least 20% of
their total land area for forest conservation.
B. PROTECTED RICE LAND (NPAAD RA 8435)
Network of Protected Areas for Agricultural and Agro-industrial

Development (NPAAD)" refers to agricultural areas identified by the
Department through the Bureau of Soils and Water Management in
coordination with the National Mapping and Resources Information
Authority in order to ensure the efficient utilization of land for
agriculture and Agro-industrial development and promote
sustainable growth . The NPAAD covers all irrigated areas, all
irrigable lands already covered by irrigation projects with firm
funding commitments; all alluvial plain land highly suitable for
agriculture whether irrigated or not; Agro-industrial crop lands or
lands presently planted to industrial crops that support the viability
of existing agricultural infrastructure and agro-based enterprises,
highlands, areas located at an elevation of five hundred (500) meters
or above and have the potential for growing semi temperate and
high-value crops; all agricultural lands that are ecological fragile, the
conversion of which will result in serious environmental degradation,
and mangrove areas and fish sanctuaries.
Tiaong has a total 1,671 hectares of rice land, 953 hectares are
irrigated with NIA and 718 are communal. All these shall fall within
the networks of protected areas for agricultural development.
This CLUP shall be the basis for determining whether reclassification

is justified in accordance with the planned urban uses expansion
areas in each of the designated growth centers and whether the
intended use conforms with the Zoning Ordinance.

The policies are as follows:
A city or municipality may, through an ordinance passed by the

sanggunian after conducting public hearings for the purpose,
authorize the reclassification of agricultural lands and provide
for the manner of their utilization or disposition in the following
cases: (1) when the land ceases to be economically feasible and
sound for agricultural purposes as determined by the
Department of Agriculture or (2) where the land shall have
substantially greater economic value for residential,
commercial, or industrial purposes, as determined by the
sanggunian concerned: Provided, That such reclassification shall
be limited to the following percentage of the total agricultural
land area at the time of the passage of the ordinance:
For highly urbanized and independent component cities, fifteen
percent (15%);
For component cities and first to the third class municipalities,
ten percent (10%); and
For fourth to sixth class municipalities, five percent (5%):
Provided, further, That agricultural lands distributed to agrarian
reform beneficiaries pursuant to Republic Act Numbered Sixty-
six hundred fifty-seven (R.A. No. 6657). otherwise known as
“The Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Law”, shall not be
affected by the said reclassification and the conversion of such
lands into other purposes shall be governed by Section 65 of
said Act.
Strict compliance of MC-54 and Joint HLURB, DAR, DA and DILG
in relation to Section 20 of the Local Government Code (RA
7160).
C. EASEMENT FOR PUBLIC USE
Under PRESIDENTIAL DECREE NO. 1067 Chapter IV Article 51,

stipulated herein: “The banks of rivers and streams and the shores of
the seas and lakes throughout their entire length and within a zone
of three (3) meters in urban areas, twenty (20) meters in agricultural
areas and forty (40) meters in forest areas, along their margins, are
subject to the easement of public use in the interest of recreation,
navigation, floatage, fishing and salvage. No person shall be allowed
to stay in this zone longer than what is necessary for recreation,
navigation, floatage, fishing or salvage or to build structures of any
kind.”
Chapter V Article 67, “Any watershed or any area of land adjacent to

any surface water or overlying any ground water may be declared by
the Department Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) as
protected area. Rules and regulations may be promulgated by such
Department to prohibit or control such activities by the owners or

occupants thereof within the protected area which may damage or
cause the deterioration of the surface water or ground water or
interfere with the investigation, use, control, protection,
management or administration of such waters.”
All new constructions adjacent to the river shall not use concrete for a
fence along their property facing the river bank and instead use
cyclone wires and B.I. pipes for the effective visual monitoring against
encroachment and illegal dumping of garbage.
Property owners along river banks shall have the responsibility of

keeping it clean and clear of any obstruction and pollutants. A 3-
meter easement from the property line shall be designated as
planting strip and maybe groomed as a small park or resting space.
For subdivision projects, strict adherence of developers to existing

laws and regulations such as Presidential Decree No. 957, Batas
Pambansa Blg. 220 and other related issuances shall be strictly
implemented and monitored.
Creeks shall be free of any obstruction and shall be kept open for easy
clearing of debris especially during heavy and prolonged rains to
prevent overflowing of these creeks. Any existing
structure/obstruction shall be removed and demolished.
For urban areas, these rivers and creeks and their river banks can be
developed into urban parks and planting strips.
IV Policies on Infrastructure Development
Infrastructure is the vital support to social and economic development

and an essential condition for individual and community well-being.
Infrastructure serves as one or a combination of the following functions:
To support the spatial strategy

To ensure public health and safety and general well-being
To upgrade existing services to desired levels
To enhance productivity and public enterprises
To reduce vulnerability of certain areas to risk and hazard from
natural and man-made disasters
A. TRANSPORTATION
1. Construction of access road connecting Cassandra Subdivision to

Tiaong Municipal Cemetery
2. Other road and bridge developments/improvements.
3. Regular maintenance of all ancillary facilities.
4. Continuous research and planning to improve traffic.

5. Strict implementation of directional instructions/signage like one-way
and one side parking.
6. Removal of all obstructions on all sidewalks from illegal structures
along main roads inside Poblacion 1,2,3 and 4 and high density
residential districts.
7. Re-plan/re-design sidewalks, Electrical/lighting posts, street and
directional signage and fire hydrants.
8. Strict compliance of setback requirements pursuant to DPWH
standards.
Sidewalks
a. “Sidewalks shall be of uniform width throughout the entire length

of the street. The width of a sidewalk shall not be less than 1/6 of
the road right-of-way.”(#1.1, 1. Width of Sidewalks and Arcades,
Rule VI-Arcades and Sidewalks, Chapter 21-Transitory and Final
Provisions, The National Building Code of the Philippines)
b. “Under no circumstances shall obstruction of any kind be allowed

on sidewalks, whether open or arcaded.”(5. Obstruction on
Sidewalks, Rule VI-Arcades and Sidewalks, Chapter 21-Transitory
and Final Provisions, The National Building Code of the
Philippines)
Electrical poles/Lighting Posts- installation shall conform to the

provisions of the Philippine Electrical Code pursuant to Republic Act
No. 184 known as the Electrical Engineering Law.
B. POWER
The need to explore other forms of power generation should be

initiated like solar power, mini-hydro power generation, windmills,
etc. to avoid encountering problems of future power needs. Garbage
is a potential source of cheap gasses that may be used for power
generation.
C. WATER
The need to explore other sources of water is a necessity due to the

rapid expansion of our residential, commercial and industrial districts.
Some possibilities include the development of the river system as a
source. It may come in the form of cleaning, clearing and rip-rapping.
The construction of a storm water holding facility is also practical
since it would address the problem of flooding and water shortage.

D. SANITATION
1. Sewage Disposal - full implementation of R.A. 9003 all

throughout the municipality to attain sustainable ecological
soundness.
2. Flood Control and Drainage - Poblacion and the other high

density areas need to improve and maintain the existing drainage
system in order to cope with flooding caused by heavy rains
during the year. Additional drainage and outfalls in strategic
areas should be installed before the onset of the rainy season.
Ways to collect this excess water for domestic consumption may
also be a sensible way of dealing with floodwaters.
E. INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION
Construction of additional cell sites is needed. Since the concentration

of the sites are located in Lagalag, Lusacan and Poblacion, it is quite
logical to cover the areas of San Agustin, the highlands between San
Pedro and Aquino, and the isolated barangay of Behia and San
Francisco to compensate for the lack of signal in these areas.
Construction of the said are subject to HLURB guidelines on cell sites.
F. OTHER INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS
2. Social Service Facilities - The need to expand facilities that cater

to the welfare of children, women/men, person with disability
(PWD) and the senior citizens shall be the main goal of the local
government. Construction of various buildings for health, primary,
secondary and even tertiary education, sports, rehabilitation and
training centers, juvenile rehabilitation, homesteads, halfway
house, evacuation centers, crisis intervention center, temporary
shelter, livelihood projects etc. that are needed to improve the
quality of life of the marginalized should be given due course.

IV. CLUP and ZO Implementation Strategy/Arrangement
Implementation and enforcement of the CLUP and Zoning Ordinance must be

institutionalized to assure rational and legal land use developments in the
municipality.
The Local Government Code allows flexibility for LGUs to design and implement their
own organizational structure and staffing patter according to their vision, goals, and
objectives.
The municipality of Tiaong will constitute the Local Zoning Board of Appeals and the
Local Zoning Review Committee. The municipality also work hand-in-hand with the
different National Agencies like, Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH),
Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), Bureau of Fisheries and
Aquatic Resources (BFAR), Tourism Infrastructure and Enterprise Zone Authority
(TIEZA), Land management Bureau (LMB), Department of Agriculture (DA), OCD-
NDRRMC, PHIVOLCS, PAGASA, MGB and NAMRIA.
Upon approval of CLUP/ZO, the Municipal Planning Team-TWG will prepare IEC
campaign materials on the key provisions of the approved CLUP and ZO. The materials
will be disseminated to all local offices and barangay hall. A copy of approved
CLUP/ZO together with maps will also be given in all barangays and be displayed at
municipal hall. At present, Tiaong has no official web site to display CLUP and ZO but
we can make sure that both hard and e-copy are available in the LGU.
To localize the approved CLUP/ZO and Tiaong municipal land use plan and zoning
maps to barangays, the MPDC will call a technical orientation and briefing of local
barangay officials and facilitate the discussion and provisions of the CLUP/ZO and
other relevant ordinances and programs. The purpose is for consistency and
refinements of existing Barangay Development Plans. The Office of the MPDC shall
also provide technical assistance and support to barangays who will revise and update
their current BDP.

V. MONITORING, REVIEW and EVALUATION SYSTEM
The monitoring, review and evaluation (MRE) of the CLUP and ZO implementation is a
major activity that needs to be strengthened. Thus, it is important that an effective RME
system be established, in order to track the progress reached by the CLUP. This is
recognized in Section 3 of EO 72 and Section 5 of MC 54.
The Tiaong-LGU will create the MRE Team which composed of the following members;
the MPDC, the Zoning Officer and the Local Zoning Review Committee as the Lead
Technical and Implementing Arm to undertake the monitoring, review an evaluation of
the CLUP and ZO implementation. The MDRRMO designate, the Senior Environment
Management Supervisor (SEMS), the OIC- Municipal Engineer, the OIC- Agriculturist and
Tourism Officer designate will be added as the Sectoral Monitoring Body.
For monitoring and review, the MPDC will coordinate with all relevant local and national
agencies, private sector, NGOs/CSOs groups to generate and consolidate necessary
information for monitoring, review and evaluation (MRE). CLUP Progress Report Card
will be prepared by MRE Team. The report will be submitted annually to Sangguniang
Bayan, Local Development Council and Local Chief Executive.
A CLUP and ZO review shall be conducted every four years or as the need arises. The
continuous monitoring outcome and results would make the review or updating more
effective and systematic. All findings and recommendation shall be submitted to
Municipal Mayor and Sangguniang Bayan for consideration and appropriate action.
