A. What is a BARANGAY DEVELOPMENT PLAN?
• A development plan for the barangay is a desired
end-state scenario of the well-being of people and
its environment to be attained in the long-term
(six or ten years) and to be planned and
implemented in orderly sequence or priority by
officials of the barangay considering fund
limitations.
• It is a deliberate
attempt to change
the future status or
quality of life of
barangay
residents, by
responding to their
economic, social and
physical
environment needs
within the limits of
available scarce
resources.
A development plan is
composed of the following:

• A Vision Statement or Practical Vision

• Strategic Directions

• Barangay Development (Programs,

Projects and Activities) Investment
Program

• Priorities
The timeline for each
component of the Barangay
Development Plan are as
follows:
 
This is shown in cycle in the following chart:

Actual planning is done in a
two-day workshop to be
participated in by members
of the BARANGAY
DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL
(BDC), Purok Presidents,
representatives of private
organizations/cooperatives
and other key informants
like doctors, teachers,
retired professionals residing
in the barangay.
Membership in the BDC is expanded to get a broad
consensus in the decisions to be integrated in the
PLAN. This is the spirit of participatory governance. 

The planning workshop can be done anywhere

between July 1-20 of each current year.
Barangay planning has the
following major
characteristics:
 Needs and requirements for public
goods and services are based on
popular demand, common good
and general welfare of barangay
residents.
DEMAND-DRIVEN

 Finding solutions to barangay development issues
and problems needs a serious study that is supported
with a strong passion, firm dedication, deep love and a
steadfast perseverance to accomplish a tangible
output. This is planning not only of the mind but also
of the heart.

 THE EXECUTIVE-LEGISLATIVE
AGENDA APPROACH TO
PLANNING
The ELA approach to planning is the merging of the
executive, legislative and community agenda into the
barangay development plan. It aims to fuse the
development agenda of both the local chief executive
and the local sanggunian into a common plan that is
responsive to the needs and demands of their
constituents. This concept is best suited to our culture
and is easily attainable in an environment of cordial
relation among the duly elected officials of the
barangay.
1. Organize the ELA team and set the objectives.
(ELA team is chaired by the Punong Barangay with all Kagawads as
members. The main objective is to integrate the ELA into the Barangay
Development Plan.)
STEP 1. Prepare a Work Plan for the ELA
Formulation Process
STEP 2. Prioritize Issues and Consult with
multi-stakeholders in the ELA Planning
Process
