Iloilo City Comprehensive Development Plan 2020–2025 Introduction

City Planning and Development Office, October 2019 1

1 Introduction

1.1 About the Comprehensive Development Plan (CDP)

1.1.1 Basis for development plans and investments

Aside from the city’s guide in comprehensive urban development for the next six years, the 2020–2025 Comprehensive Development Plan (CDP) is the basis for the city’s Local Development In-vestment Program (LDIP) and Annual Investment Program (AIP). As provided in the DILG-NEDA-DBM-DOF Joint Memorandum Circular No. 1 s-2007, LGUs’ CDPs shall be made the anchor of such annual component plans as the city’s Annual Development Plan and Annual Investment Program. More importantly, it shall contain the 2020–2022 Local Development Investment Pro-gram, which defines a three-year investment program that shall finance the implementation of the 2020–2025 CDP.

1.1.2 Basis for the Executive-Legislative Agenda

In consonance with the DILG Manual on the preparation of Executive Legislative Agenda (ELA), the 2020–2025 CDP is a key element in the preparation of the ELA. With its identified develop-ment issues, analyses of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats, objectives, strategies and programs, projects and activities, the 2020–2025 CDP sets the tone for the Sangguniang Panlungsod (SP) to identify legislative measures that shall help actualize planned strategies, pro-grams, projects and activities.

As basis for the ELA, the CDP shall mainly provide for the following: 1. Enabling the City Mayor and the SP to identify and prioritize urban issues and problems 2. Ensuring the resilience and adaptability of the city to climate change and disaster risks 3. Helping the city government of Iloilo explore innovative doable solutions 4. Improved implementation of priority programs by the executive department and more respon-

sive legislations by the Sangguniang Panlungsod 5. Speeding up the implementation of priority programs, projects and activities

1.2 Planning process

The preparation of the Iloilo City 2020-2025 Comprehensive Development Plan went through the following process:

1.2.1 Ecological profiling

The preparation of the 2016 Iloilo City Ecological Profile and 2017 Iloilo City Ecological Profile started in the first quarter of 2017 and 2018 respectively when the CPDO (Research, Statistics and Evaluation Division) drafted an updated ecological profile using data from various agencies both local and national, results of the 2015 national census and various studies from the different local and foreign partner agencies. Some data were also culled out from the prepared Rational-ized Planning Indicator and Data Set (RaPIDS) which is applicable to the city. In this step, the CDP



Team also prepared the Structured List of PPAs per sector which later be prioritized for imple-mentation.

1.2.2 Sectoral planning workshops

The visioning phase of the CDP preparation was skipped due to the information that the city still has a compelling and valid vision statement that states Iloilo City: A Premier SMART City of Ex-cellence as per approved LDC Resolution no. 11, Series of 2016 and adopted thru SP Resolution No. 2017-059 last January 24, 2017.

These workshops, expected at producing foundational inputs to the plan, covered the following sectors: Institutional, Economic, Infrastructure, Social, and Environment. These were conducted last

March 6-7, 2017 (CLUP and CDP Updating Workshop); September 7-8, 11-14, 2017 (Sectoral Plan-ning Workshops; CLUP / CDP Coaching and Mentoring Workshop); April 30 and May 2-3, 2019 (Workshop on the Preparation of CDP facilitated by DILG); August 26-28, 2019 (Continuation of Workshop on the Preparation of CDP facilitated by DILG and Presentation of Draft CDP); Sep-tember 5, 16, 18, 2019 (series of meetings and workshops with CDP Team).

Participants from the workshop were drawn from the members of the five sectoral committees of the Local Development Council (LDC), augmented by the representatives of the City Govern-ment departments and key offices, concerned National Government Agencies (NGAs), Non-Government Organizations (NGOs) and additional representatives from Civil Society, particu-larly the academe and other interest and vulnerable groups.

Workshops included the following: a) Vision-Reality Gap; b) DILG filled-up forms; c) researches, studies and other reference materials.

Through a streamlined yet responsive event design, the workshops covered Steps 2 to 5 of CDP preparation-from determination of vision-reality gaps; to formulation of sectoral goals, objec-tives and/or targets; to the development of policy responses.



Figure 1. Workshop facilitated by DILG for the preparation of the CDP

1.2.3 Output consolidation and drafting

The consolidation took place right after the workshops and continuously working on it until the presentation to the Iloilo City Development Council for approval.

1.2.4 Presentation, approval and endorsement

The Comprehensive Development Plan was formally presented, approved and endorsed to the City Council during a regular full-council meeting of the Iloilo City Development Council last Sep-tember 25, 2019 at the Diamond Jubilee Hall in Iloilo City through LDC Resolution No. 8.



1.2.5 Adoption by the Sangguniang Panlungsod

The city council approved and adopted the Comprehensive Development Plan through Resolu-tion No. [] passed on [].

Iloilo City Comprehensive Development Plan 2020–2025 Quick Facts about Iloilo City


2 Quick Facts about Iloilo City

2.1 Brief historical background

The name “Iloilo City” was derived from “irong-irong”, a reference to the native word “irong” which means “nose”. The name took after the nose-like configuration of the main settlement area during the pre-Spanish period as so shaped by the Iloilo River. Chinese traders who frequent the area and who mispronounce the “r” sounds with the “l” sounds soon popularized the term “irong-irong” which later evolved into its current name Iloilo.

Iloilo City was also referred to as the “Most Loyal and Noble City” or “La Muy Leal y Noble Ciuded de Iloilo” in Spanish. This is an inscription in the Coat of Arms from the Royal Decree of 1896 in recognition of the local people’s loyalty to the Spanish crown.

In 1890, the city was referred to as the “Queen City of the South” and the Plaza de Alfonso XII was converted into a beautiful garden and park with trees, pathways, and a monument in the middle. In 1930, Iloilo gained its cityhood status again after it was reverted into township by the Americans.

2.2 Geophysical characteristics

2.2.1 Location and area

The City of Iloilo is one of 16 cities found in the Western Visayas Region (Region VI). Located on the central coastline of Iloilo Province on the island of Panay; Iloilo City has a total area of 7,834 hectares. It is divided into six districts, where 180 barangays are situated–all of which are classi-fied as urban.

The municipality of Leganes bound the city on the northeast, the municipalities of Pavia and Sta. Barbara on the north, the municipality of San Miguel on the northwest, the municipality of Oton on the west, and the Iloilo Strait on the south.

Iloilo City is the regional hub of Western Visayas (Region VI) and plays a crucial role in the region’s socio-economic growth and development. It is also the center of the Metro Iloilo Guimaras Eco-nomic Development Council which helps guide urbanization across the neighboring municipali-ties of Oton, San Miguel, Sta. Barbara, Cabatuan, Leganes, Pavia, and the Island Province of Guimaras (see Figure 2).



Figure 2. Location of Iloilo City

2.2.2 Topography

Ninety percent (90%) of the city’s landmass has an elevation of 2.64 meters above sea level, while the remaining 10 per cent has an elevation of 5.19 meters. The slope category of the city falls between 0% and 3% and is nearly level with the land.

Based on the map of the Bureau of Soil, the lowest portion of the city is in Brgy. Balabago, Jaro district.

Slope category of the city only falls between 0% and 3%, 0.5% be more exact, which means that for every 100 meters distance, the rise is 0.5 meter.



Figure 3. Topographic map of Iloilo City

2.2.3 Climate

The climate of Iloilo City is monsoonal and consists of two pronounced seasons: dry season from January to April and wet season during the rest of the year. Rainfall and number of rainy days is highest during the month of August and lowest on February to March. Iloilo City has partly cloudy skies during most of the year.

With a total of 168 days of rain recorded in 2017, Iloilo City has rain almost half a year. Benefits include fertile land for agri-culture.

The decrease of annual average growth may be attributed or due to some people who have migrated to some neighboring/nearby municipalities/towns and because of the deaths of people caused by calamities, diseases and natural deaths during the census year.
