VOLUME 1
THE COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE
PLAN (CLUP) OF BAGUIO CITY
Republic of the Philippines
OFFICE OF THE CITY MAYOR
City Government of Baguio
MESSAGE
Our Updated Comprehensive Land Use Plan is a product of a collective effort of the
different sectors in our community in setting forth our City’s road map to 2023. It adopts a
cost-effective spatial development pattern, like the multi-nodal form combined with
circumferential and radial road networks, that is most appropriate for our City as we are faced
with the challenges of effective use of limited resources vis-a-vis Baguio’s multi-roles as center
for tourism, education, trade and regional center and an alternative haven from the adverse
effects of climate change. As such, this serves as our blue print for our City’s physical and
economic development toward a safer and healthier environment that benefits our
constituents.
This plan mainstreams Disaster Risk Reduction Management (DRRM) and Climate
Change Adaptation (CCA). It identifies hazard prone areas and were considered in coming up
with the zoning map. Environmental development controls, among others, include the
following; identified sinkholes as non-buildable zones, the preservation of natural drainage and
strict enforcement of provision of easement along waterways, provision of rainwater capture
for new buildings, preservation of forests and watersheds, building height regulations and
securing Environmental Compliance Certificate (ECC) for projects exceeding 3 storeys.
In behalf of the City’s Officialdom, I take this opportunity to express our sincere
appreciation to all concerned who selflessly contributed to the completion of our Updated
Comprehensive Land Use Plan and urge everyone to continue supporting its implementation to
make our dream a reality.

FOREWORD
Local government units in their quest for development must
consider and integrate all issues and concerns in their development
efforts to ensure a desirable future state. This can only be attained
through the formulation of local plans that will set the directions for
growth anchored on sustainability.
The city’s thrust of putting more direction in its development
efforts requires the preparation of various plans covering the
different areas of concern. The Comprehensive Land Use Plan will
guide all actions particularly policy-making and decision making
that take off from well-studied situation and factual database. This
in effect will redound to a more effective program and project conceptualization and
implementation, in that appropriate responses are taken from the plan to address current
problems and issues.
The preparation of the Updated Comprehensive Land Use Plan (CLUP) complies with
the provisions of Section 106 of the Local Government Code and Executive Order No. 72 of the
Office of the President of the Republic of the Philippines which mandates Local Government
Units to prepare multi-sectoral plans. This plan now sets a more systematic process of land use
in the city and a guide for executive decision-making and local legislation.
This new comprehensive land use plan aims to rationalize the allocation of the city’s
limited land resources and effectively control land development.
Highlighting the CLUP are the following spatial strategies:

Decongestion of the Central Business District (CBD) through the
provision of growth nodes along strategic locations in the city. This will
increase the area for commercial activities.

Designating additional areas for institutional
purposes that support our
role as an education center north of Manila.

Preservation of existing watersheds, forest reservations, parks
and other
areas supported by Presidential Proclamations and other laws.

Environment Development Controls.




Lastly, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the stakeholders and civil society
especially to Director Teresita V. Galacgac, Regional Officer II, HLURB-Northern Luzon
Region for the technical assistance, to the Technical Working Group (NEDA-CAR, DENRMGB/LMS/CENRO, CBAO, CEO & NGOs) and Saint Louis University College of
Engineering and Architecture for the use of their Baguio City satellite image for the benchmark,
and the officials and employees of the city who contributed to the successful formulation of this
plan.

BRIEF PROFILE OF BAGUIO CITY (GENERAL INFORMATION)
A.
Brief History
During the Spanish Era, Benguet was not a remote area for the Spaniards to explore. The vastness
and promising economic potential of the place lured the Spaniards to conduct series of expeditions. Early
explorers included Juan Salcedo in 1572 and Don Q.M. Quirante in 1664. Series of attempts were made to
pacify the "Igorots" but failed. Finally in 1846, Commandante de Galvey established his Commandancia at
La Trinidad, Benguet (named after his wife). Galvey went to establish the province of Benguet with 31
rancherias. The first Kapitan of Benguet was Pulito of Kafagway, now Baguio, a minor rancheria of about 20
houses.
Baguio’s original name is Kafagway. The Ibaloi tribe is the ethnic group native to Baguio and most of
Benguet Province.
The presidentia of Baguio was first established in the house of the Campulet at the top of the new
Tabacalera road at the lower end of Guisad Valley. Later, the presidentia of Baguio was moved to the
present site of the Baguio City Hall.
The Spaniards were able to establish order, built churches and schools, made trails and introduced
coffee during their long occupation of the area.
The Americans came early in 1900 and established their government with Mr. H. Phelps Whitmarsh
as the appointed Governor of Benguet and Baguio as the capital. This was the first provincial government to
be established in the Philippines and this happened in a year prior to the inauguration of the civil
government of the Philippines. Their best administrators and teachers were fervent boosters and
promoters: Dean C. Worcester, Governor General Luke Wright, Cameron Forbes and others, who together
with Filipinos committed to make the place a haven.
Renowned architect and city
planner Daniel H. Burnham, the top
choice of both William H. Taft and
Cameron Forbes together with his
assistant Pierce Anderson arrived in the
Philippines from San Francisco on
October 13, 1904. A brief period of only
nine (9) days for necessary field work,
Burnham
interviewed
numerous
government officials, studied available
maps, hiked and rode horses to most
parts of the Baguio reservation and was
really impressed by the topographical
layout of the proposed urban site and
the spectacular scenery of the
surrounding mountain area.
During his trip back home to
Chicago, Burnham was able to prepare a
rough layout of Baguio called the “Plan of Baguio”, using his personal notes and materials provided by the
insular government. This was presented to Secretary Taft on October 5, 1905, adopting the Garden City
concept of city planning, a dominant and prevailing concept of urban development during the Beautiful City
Movement era.
Even with the evolution of the Baguio Plan by William E. Parsons, Warwick Greene and others who
were responsible for actual layout and construction of streets, residences and public buildings, the
Volume 1 – The Comprehensive Land Use Plan of Baguio City for 2013-2023

Burnham Plan served as a powerful blueprint for the organization of space within Baguio City, and one of
the pioneering endeavors in the country.
Beginning 1909, a government fleet of Stanley steam autos brought up more than 2,000 passengers
a season. The city was well governed and well kept.
The mines near Baguio were developed and productive. Business in the city flourished with
commercial centers put up. Recreation facilities were installed. The city was growing before the outbreak of
the war.
History will tell us that the war in the Philippines began and ended at Camp John Hay. During the
early part of the Second World War, Baguio was among the first places to be attacked by the Japanese
Imperial Army.
Camp John Hay was bombed on the morning of December 8, 1941. The city government continued
to function even after the evacuation of Camp John Hay by the US Army on December 23, 1941. Japanese
civilians were interned in Camp John Hay.
Not long afterwards, on December 27, 1941, the Japanese columns arrived on Naguilian Road.
Baguio was then declared an open city under the leadership of the Chief of Police Keith. The occupation of
the city by the Japanese is affected without the firing of a single shot. The first Headquarters was set up at
the Japanese school on Trinidad Road, then at the Baguio Hotel, and later at the Masonic Temple.
The Nippon forces immediately organized the military police administration and third degree
chambers. They also converted Camp John Hay into their Garrison and a part of it was used as a
concentration camp. Most of the people of Baguio took to the hills for survival. The guerilla movement
figured prominently at this time. While the Japanese atrocities were mounting, the people’s hatred was
steadily reaching its breaking point.
In 1944, when the American Forces lead by Gen. Douglas MacArthur landed in Leyte, Gen.
Yamashita moved his headquarters to Baguio. The puppet Philippine Government under President Jose
Laurel was also set up in the city. Finally on January 8, 1945, American and Filipino forces advanced toward
Baguio to liberate it from the Japanese force. In the process, Baguio suffered intensive artillery shelling and
aerial bombardment.
The city was destroyed as the liberating forces were flashing out Gen. Yamashita and his army.
Many of the residents of Baguio lost their homes and took shelter for about two months at the Baguio
Cathedral. Since there was an acute food shortage, Yamashita eventually allowed thousands of Baguio
residents to leave the city. The American forces advanced toward the city from the south by way of Kennon
Road and also from the North West through Naguilian Road. There was intense fighting along their way.
When the Japanese defensive positions started to fall, Gen. Yamashita quickly retreated north from Baguio.
However, he left a small delaying force to cover his withdrawal from the city.
Not aware of the withdrawal of the Japanese Forces and still expecting a counter attack, the
Americans and Filipino soldiers waited several days before their final assault of Baguio that led to its total

liberation on April 27, 1945. Somehow Gen. Yamashita and his 10,000-strong army made good in their
retreat from the city. It was about 5 months later that the Japanese lost the war in the Philippines.
The Americans and Filipino soldiers pursued Gen. Yamashita and they captured him on September
2, 1945 in Kiangan, Ifugao. He was escorted by Colonel F.M. Smith, back Baguio and on September 3, 1945
he signed the unconditional surrender of the Japanese army. The honorable surrender took place at the
residence of the US ambassador at Camp John Hay. Upon their arrival at Camp John Hay, Major General
Tomiyuki Yamashita and Vice Admiral Denhichi Okoochi handed over there samurai swords to Colonel
George H. Bishop, G-2 of the armed forces in the western pacific (AFWESPAC). In equally fine fashion,
Colonel F.M. Smith, the commander of Camp John Hay honored the rank of his prisoner by billeting ten of
the ranking officers at the High Commissioner’s Residence.
When the surrender ceremonies had ended, the Japanese were escorted to the New Bilibid Prison
as prisoners of war (POWs). Baguio experienced a memorable event in its history when it was made the
site of the final surrender of the Japanese Forces. Allied dignitaries, soldiers and Baguio residents held a
Cañao to celebrate the liberation of the city. A liberation festival was even held in April 27, 1946 to show
the gratitude that every peace loving citizen of this wonderful city feels.
From the ruins of World War II, the city of Baguio steadily grew into the commercial, educational,
and recreational center of the Cordilleras and northern Luzon. Although Baguio ceased to be the official
summer capital in 1976, people still continued referring to it as the summer capital of the Philippines.
At exactly 4:26 p.m. on Monday, 16 July 1990, a killer earthquake unexpectedly hit and extensively
devastated the City of Baguio. The powerful temblor measured 7.7 in the open-ended Richter scale and
lasted for 45 seconds. It was said to be the most destructive earthquake on record within the Cordillera
Region. There were numerous aftershocks that followed and the strongest, which occurred at 3:15 a.m. of
July 18, lasted for eight seconds and measured 5.3 on the Ritcher Scale.

Years after the great earthquake, Baguio City has recovered and is standing firm and proud for its
restored heritage.
Until today, Baguio City as the Summer Capital of the Philippines is the most frequented destination
in Northern Luzon by local and foreign tourists alike.

half of the city.
There are two great valleys found in the south and north of the city. The more famous GuisadLucban Valley has an elevation that ranges from 1,300 to 1,400 meters and is centrally located towards the
north. The southern valley is composed of long and narrow vales surrounded by low hills and transected by
a network of hills. Some of the more important vales are Camp 7, Loakan, Bakakeng and Crystal Cave. These
valleys are arable as they are rich with alluvial deposits.
The summits on the plateau offer panoramic views. The summits that face the west: Quezon Hill,
Mirador-Dominican Hill and the Bureau of Animal Industry Stock Farm at Sto. Tomas, Tuba offers splendid

However, despite deficiency in manpower, HSO was able to pursue its vision and mission
effectively. Aside from its closer network with its government and non- government partners, the
presence of Community Health Volunteer Workers (CHVW ) who serve as our extension arm in
the barangay augment staff compliment of the office.
For 2012, the CHVW are composed of one hundred ten (110) Barangay Health Workers
(BHW); one hundred twenty eight (128) Barangay Nutrition Scholar (BNS); and Barangay
Nutrition Action Officer (BNAO) that increased from forty five (45) to ninety eight (98). Volunteers

Emerging Role of the City as a Financial Center
Savings and investments play a very vital role in the City’s economy because these are
necessary conditions for capital formation, which makes the economic system efficient or
productive.
Currently, there are 201 banks and other financial institutions located in the City from only
14 such establishments in 1995. This impressive growth of financial establishments in the City
presents a challenge for the City to be a financial center, not only in the Cordillera Region but in
North Luzon as well. There are 62 banks currently operating in the city. These financial
institutions act as intermediaries between the depositors and the borrowers. Savings of the
depositors are being used up in terms of loans, which will in turn be invested by the borrowers.
Loans granted by banks are of several types depending upon the function of the bank.
Aside from banks, there are other lending institutions available to businessmen such as
credit establishments, credit cooperatives and individual lenders. Some government agencies are
also advocating on the formation of capital by providing the seed money and supervising the use
of such.
e.
The City’s Industrial Base
Baguio is also home to one of the country’s most profitable Philippine Economic Zone
Authority areas (PEZA), called the Baguio City Economic Zone (BCEZ), located in the southern part
of the city between the Camp John Hay leisure resort and the Philippine Military Academy and
caters to twenty three (23) locators. Notable firms include Texas Instruments Philippines, Inc. a
leading producer of semi-conductor parts and accessories in the world market, MOOG, producer of
parts for aircrafts and Sitel for call centers. Also, production output in the BCEZ accounts for the
bulk of the Cordillera Region’s total exports.

The combined total exports for the past year amounted to $ 4.159B. Non-PEZA exports shared
45.27 percent and the remaining 54.73 percent were for PEZA exports.
PEZA exports recorded a decrease of 7.99 percent or $2.276B compared to the previous year. The
Machinery except Electrical sector continuous to have the lion’s share in the value of its export products
pegged at $ 168M for the period. This is explained by the global recession of the companies located at the
economic zone. IT Companies exported a total of $ 58.064M or 43.38 percent higher than last year, and
wearing apparel exports also decreased by (9.77) percent or a total value of $10.148M.
Non-PEZA exports posted an increase of 14.00 percent. This was attributed to the conduct of
market matching and trade fairs focused on product design and quality control. Top exports identified were
wood products, silver crafts and the traditional native cloths or apparels.
The intent is to generate job and ensure the City’s liability over time through the continued
and expanded contribution of resource-based enterprises and knowledge-based industries. This
includes the growth of more SMEs where barriers to the movement of goods and services are
reduced or eliminated by advances in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and
Volume 1 – The Comprehensive Land Use Plan of Baguio City for 2013-2023
21
eventually drive them to transact businesses electronically to gain information and compete for
market access.
The City has started to attract industry operators engaged in business process outsourcing
(BPO) activities, in particular, contact centers at the Baguio Ecozone. We have some of them
currently operating and more are expected to come in and tap city’s cool climate which figures
prominently in downscaling power utility costs and its vast pool of young, highly trained Englishspeaking and ethical work force. The Department of Trade Industry (DTI) has included Baguio City
among suitable sites for call center operations as well as other IT-services nationwide.
f.
Small and Medium Scale Industries
There are also small and medium scale industries and various handicrafts in the city. These are
distinctive crafts that provide economic opportunities for various ethnic groups. These indigenous
products continue to lure tourists because of the superior craftsmanship and personal touch in production.
Some of these crafts are wood-carving, basketry and textile weaving. Expansion of the medium scale
production of other products as metal craft, particularly of brass and silver wares, garments’ production
especially of knitted items, food processing that includes strawberries, peanuts, and pastry products.
Ceramic making is also finding its niche in the city’s growing economy.
g.
Tourism
Undoubtedly, Baguio City remains a prime tourist destination area in North Luzon. The
City has accounted 65.44 percent of tourist arrivals to the Cordillera Region since the region’s
inception. Baguio City is also the gateway to other tourist destinations in the North. Almost
always, tourists either come to the City only or pass through on their way to other places in the
Cordillera. This highlights the strategic role that Baguio City plays in the region’s tourism
industry.
The cool climate and fresh green and peaceful environment, not elsewhere found in other
tourist destinations in the Philippines and of which the city is noted for, makes it a favorite
destination especially for those who would like to relax and stay away from the excessive heat of
the lowlands. This is the strongest selling point of the city that makes it also the favorite venue of
seminars and conferences.
Aside from its climate and green environment, the City also boasts of tourist attractions
which include historical landmarks, cultural, natural (health and wellness), religious (history and
culture), man-made, business/commercial and customs and traditions (Table 12). Parks and
gardens also abound in the City as shown in the Tourist Map No. 9. Most of these are developed
and maintained by the City Government. The City also hosts events and festivals that continue to
attract visitors to the City, most notably the annual Flower Festival or Panagbenga that is
celebrated in February featuring the blooming of flowers. In support to this festival, which is a
private sector undertaking spearheaded by the Baguio Flower Festival Foundation, Inc. (BFFFI),
the Department of Tourism-CAR spearheaded the coordination of provincial participation in the
Street Dancing Parade. Highlights of Panagbenga 2012, namely: Grand Street Dance Parade and
the Grand Float Parade, respectively. The inauguration of the Rose Garden in Burnham Park has
likewise attended by the two (2) officials last February 26, 2012.

Water
The Baguio Water District (BWD), a quasi-government entity, administers the water supply
system for the City of Baguio. BWD operates an extensive water production & distribution system
consisting of 60 deep wells but with limited storage facilities. Owing to Baguio’s rugged
topography, water distribution has been technically difficult and expensive.
BWD served 122 barangays out of 129 barangays in 2012. The remaining seven (7) barangays not
supplied by the District are the following:

Liquid Waste Management
The City Sewerage System of Baguio is managed by the Wastewater, Water & Ambient Air
Management Division (WAMD) of CEPMO. Its service is focused in the Central Business District
(CBD) and the adjoining Barangays.
Volume 1 – The Comprehensive Land Use Plan of Baguio City for 2013-2023
35

It covers a service area of about 65 out of 128 barangays of the city. Management is governed
by the Sanitation Code of the Philippines (PD856), DENR Administrative Orders 34 & 35, the
Clean Water Act (RA 9275), and the Plumbing Code (R.A. 137) , the Building Code (P.D 1096)
and other relevant national laws and local ordinances.

Domestic wastewater collected through the sewage piping network is transported to the
Baguio Sewage Treatment Plant (BSTP) for treatment. In 2012, an average of 10,002 cum/day
of wastewater were received as influent to the BSTP, 16.30% more than the designed capacity
of 8,600 cum/day.

Ten (10) barangays are either fully or partially served by nine (9) communal septic or Imhoff
tanks.

Areas outside of the coverage areas of the BSTP or the communal waste water treatment
system utilize onsite individual septic tank for treatment of their domestic sewage.

The City Government continues to bring the system closer to the prospective concessionaires
by installing additional sewer lines and maintenance manholes. It also
rehabilitate/improvement of pre-war sewer lines which are found serviceable and which can
be interconnected to the new sewer network.

The Internal Revenue Allotment (IRA) of the City Government increased by an average of
5% annually. There was a decrease in 2012 due to the approval of the cityhood of 19 component
cities in the country, while the rest have an average increase of 10 percent annually. The City
Income has an average of 41% IRA dependency ratio. For the year 2012 the IRA dependency ratio
is 36%.

Figure 4. Tax and Non Tax Revenue, 2008 - 2012
The Tax and Non Tax Revenue of the City for 2008 to 2012 have an average increase of Php
52,204,666.80 annually or 6.95 % per annum.
The high collection efficiency can be attributed to the Social Marketing Strategy adopted by
the City, where taxpayers are provided incentives when they pay their taxes early and on a regular
basis.
2.
Employment
There is a decrease of 7.33 percent in jobs created by the various industries currently operating,
compared to the previous year while new registered investments reached Php 104,865 Million. Bulk of the
new investments is from the transport sector and professional services including CPAs, doctors, real estate
brokers.
The intent is to generate job and ensure the City’s liability over time through the continued
and expanded contribution of resource-based enterprises and knowledge-based industries. This
includes the growth of more SMEs where barriers to the movement of goods and services are
reduced or eliminated by advances in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and
eventually drive them to transact businesses electronically to gain information and compete for
market access.
The City has started to attract industry operators engaged in business process outsourcing
(BPO) activities, in particular, contact centers at the Baguio Ecozone. We have some of them
currently operating and more are expected to come in and tap city’s cool climate which figures
prominently in downscaling power utility costs and its vast pool of young, highly trained Englishspeaking and ethical work force. The Department of Trade Industry (DTI) has included Baguio City
among suitable sites for call center operations as well as other IT-services nationwide.
3.
Average Family Income and Expenditure
a.
Family Income and Expenditure
The main sources of income for families in the city are from; 1) Salaries and Wages (61
percent); 2) Entrepreneurial Activities (20 percent); and 3) other activities (19 percent). Most of
those earning salaries and wages gain income from employment in service-oriented private
Volume 1 – The Comprehensive Land Use Plan of Baguio City for 2013-2023
38
enterprises. Entrepreneurial activities was a second major source of income, while other sources
included net-shares from crops produced, livestock raised by other households, rentals, cash
receipts and the like.
A comparative presentation of income and expenditure for Baguio City residents from the
Family Income and Expenditure Survey conducted every three years reveal that the average
income of households had been steadily increasing since 2000 up to 2009. The average monthly
income ranged from Php 16,199.16 per month in 2000 and increased to Php 20,268.00 by 2009.
Expenditure on the other hand presented the same pattern over the period. The household has an
average expenditure of 78.80 percent of their income in 2009 an increase from its 77.65 percent in
2000.

b. Annual Per Capita Poverty Threshold and the Incidence of
Poor Families
Baguio City is a high in-migration area in the North. It being the only highly urbanized city in this
part of the country, it has played vital socio-economic roles vital for its neighboring areas and continues to
attract people from all walks of life.
Life in the City will not be the same for all its residents, considering various factors and the ability
to cope with a rapidly changing lifestyle vis-à-vis the cost of living in an urban situation. The incidence of
poverty is a natural social phenomenon that occur due to the inability of the population to provide and
sustain the basic needs for survival as food, clothing, shelter and security.
Based on census data covering three periods since 2006 to 2012, following are poverty indicators
for the City of Baguio.

Data Source: NSCB
Based on the above table, the City now has a total of 4,300 poor families. The situation presents a
very significant reduction of 1.8 percent from its 6.1 percent level in 2006. Despite the economic global
recession, there had been better opportunities for the marginal households in the City. The incidence of
poor families in the City has improved considerably compared with the regional standing that was pegged
at 6.1 percent in 2006 and 4.3 percent last year.
The per capita poverty threshold increase because of inflation and therefore the amount of money
needed to keep a family of 5 grew. In 2009, you need only Php 8,096.00 for a family of 5 but now you need
9,407.00.
With population expected to follow an upward trend, the need to intensify socio-economic
mitigations to buffer the proportionate increase of the incidence of poor families in the City.

Existing Land Use and Land Use Trends
Residential area (56.35 percent) occupies the largest land use and is therefore the most dominant
among all the urban uses. A very common residential design is the single detached dwelling rather than
multi-level housing which is widespread in mountain cities like Hong Kong. The preference towards single
detached housing is probably attributed more to culture and affordability rather than on the City’s
vulnerability to disasters like earthquakes and landslides. The rapid growth in the construction of
residential units all over the City resulted from the influx of migrants from nearby provinces that began in
the early 1960s and is true until today. The need to provide affordable shelter for students coming from
nearby provinces to avail of the City’s tertiary education services is also another reason for the sudden rise
in housing requirements in the City.
Commercial areas occupy some 317.13 hectares or approximately 5.52 percent of the City’s total
land area. These are found mostly at the Central Business District and along major thorough fares in the
City like Magsaysay Avenue, Bokawkan Road, Naguilian Road, Marcos Highway and Kennon Road. Recently
however, some residential areas along inner city roads have gradually converted into commercial areas.
Situations like these can be readily observed along Bonifacio Street, Rimando Road, Trancoville and others.
Various private and public institutions operating in the City take up some 213.05 hectares (3.71
percent). These institutions include schools, hospitals, churches, military reservations, and government
facilities. Among the military reservations are the Philippine Military Academy, Navy Base and Camp Allen.
Moreover, national government occupies a wide tract of land along Engineer’s Hill and Cabinet Hill. Inside
these areas are the staff houses of the Department of Labor, Department of Tourism, Department of Budget
and Management, Department of Justice and others.
Planned Unit Development Zone takes up a small portion of the City’s land at only 57.89 hectares
or 1.01 percent. Although insubstantial when compared with other land uses, over the past three decades,
manufacturing tops the City’s economic drivers, much more than services, retail or trade. The Philippine
Export Zone Authority in Loakan is the largest industrial estate in the Baguio and is home to multi-national
companies like Texas Instruments, Moog Controls Corporation and others.
With its current urban form, it can be said that Baguio plays the major role of a residential town
serving the purposes of its other important functions as education center in the north, premier tourist
destination, regional government center, trade and commercial hub as well as regional industrial center.
Given the City’s limited space for expansion, key interventions for providing adequate and
affordable housing, infrastructure services and for improving its current state of environmental
degradation must be explored. Housing alternatives such as multi-level development, resettlement plans
for informal settlers, rehabilitation of forest and watersheds and forging inter- local cooperation among the
BLISTT LGUs for the provision of utilities and infrastructure are among the key measures that the City
might want to consider for the pursuit of a progressive economy that also ensures sustainability.

Because of the high demand for housing, some high density residential areas are congested and are
not in their good condition especially those at the central and northern parts of the City. Housing has also
expanded towards protected areas, encroaching on watersheds and forest reservations, with the forest
cover currently in a state of rapid decline thus threatening the City’s water supply sources, natural
landscape and beauty. Moreover, the high population growth rate has also resulted in water shortage,
traffic congestion, environmental degradation and has raised capacity concerns for solid waste, sewerage
and other infrastructure facilities. Table 26 lists the forest and watershed reservations in the City. Most of
these reservations are already encroached upon by settlers.
Though already dwindling, pockets of pine forested areas remain visible in the City’s landscape. The
remaining forested area accounts for about 4.18 percent of the total land area. Pine forests are found
mostly at the outskirts of the City, close to the City boundary.

Map 13 shows that alienable and disposable lands is 43.13 percent of the total land area and most of
these areas are already built up.
Among the strategies to implement this plan is Inter-LGU networking or BLISTT-wide development.
Given the limited available space in the city for development, the expansion is expected towards the
adjoining areas within the Province of Benguet especially BLISTT.
For the adoption of a policy that ancestral lands shall be respected and shall be accorded the same

COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN
A. Vision/Mission
1.
Vision:
The City of Baguio envisions itself to be:
“We want a progressive, peaceful, clean and green Baguio- A center for
education, trade and family-oriented tourism-managed by God-loving
and strong-willed leaders in partnership with self-reliant and disciplined
citizenry.”
This vision underscores the importance of conserving and enhancing the natural beauty of Baguio
City with its pine clad mountainous landscape and cool temperate climate. It is the preservation and
enhancement of this unique incomparable natural beauty of the city that shall make Baguio City
breathtaking to everyone, visitors and residents alike.
The city is a melting pot of various cultures from the Cordillera highlands to the lowlands of Luzon
and even from outside the country. The city shall be a living stage of the way of life of different cultures as
they contribute to city development.
The city’s role in the Baguio-La Trinidad-Itogon-Sablan-Tuba-Tublay (BLISTT) area, regional and
national development as prime tourist destination and center of quality education is also recognized. These
two functions will continue to be the cornerstone of the city’s development in many years to come. The
city’s tourism development hinges to a great deal on the proper management, preservation and
enhancement of the city’s natural tourism assets namely its beautiful mountainous wooded landscape. Such
natural assets will be complemented by the provision of world class tourist amenities and facilities.
On the other hand, the city’s foothold in the educational service sector will continue to be
strengthened with the continued provision of quality education (e.g. excellent facilities, competent
instructors and upgraded curriculum) particularly in the tertiary level. Aside from traditional courses, the
city’s colleges and universities will provide various courses attune to the changing needs of the society.
The “security” of the city’s residents is an important element of the vision. This means a city where
peace and order reigns and criminality is very minimal, if not eradicated, within a safe physical
environment. Basic needs in education and health and other social facilities are provided adequately to
empower the people, thus, making them productive and active participants in the economic and social
development activities of the city.
While the government provides for the security and needs of its residents, the city residents
including the government officials themselves will possess the positive traits of responsible citizenship and
be united in city building following the vision agreed upon.
This vision is a product of various consultations from the grassroots (barangay) then to city wide
level. Citizens from all sectors, government and private, contributed their own inputs to the city’s
development vision. This vision has been finally adopted by a multisectoral group in a conference held on
December 11, 2009 at Hotel Supreme, Baguio City.

Mission
“We shall create a sustainable and enabling environment that will
promote economic stability and ensure the general well-being of
our citizenry.”
The following are the specific development goals of the city consistent with the overall
development vision.
B.
Goals, Strategies and Overall Policies
1.Goals
a.
Balanced ecology
This goal underscores the importance of preservation and enhancement of the city’s natural
environment while pursuing socio-economic activities. The balance ecology also means causing the least
disruption as possible to the natural environment of the city to allow the flourishing of various flora and
fauna in an effort to promote a stable bio-diversity. This goal also includes the reduction of carbon dioxide
emissions in response to problems brought about by global warming.
b.
Faster economic growth
Economic growth will not only be faster but sustainable as well with the diversification of the
city’s’ economic base. Tourism and education will still be the main engines of the city’s economic growth
but other sectors such as trading and commerce, information and communication technology services and
other related businesses/ services will be developed. A low volume, non pollutive, less water consumption
will be the preferred industries for the city.
c.
Higher levels and culturally enriched social development
The city aims to provide adequate social services and facilities in areas of education, health,
housing, social welfare to attain higher levels of social development. An improved human development
index representing literacy rate, income and life expectancy is expected to be attained. Focus will be given
to provision of affordable but decent housing to many residents of the city. Respect for diversity in culture
among the different peoples in the city shall be an integral part of social development as well.
d.
Efficient and
management
effective
development
administration
and
Good governance will be manifested in an efficient and effective development administration and
management. This means the city officials and staff will strive for transparency, accountability,
responsibility, competency, efficiency and effectivity in the performance of their functions to provide better
services to the city’s residents. Government funds will be wisely used; bureaucracy shall be lean and
responsive to the needs of the people and services rendered effectively with the least cost.
Volume 1 – The Comprehensive Land Use Plan of Baguio City for 2013-2023
52
e.
Efficient and effective infrastructure support facilities and
utilities
The scale and type of infrastructure to be implemented would shape the future of the city. This goal
would provide for adequate and quality road networks with pedestrian sidewalks, high technology
communication facilities and utilities and other urban infrastructure which enhances the natural
environment. A low scale urban infrastructure is preferable. Drainage, public buildings and other related
infrastructure will be upgraded.
2.
Strategies
The strategies / policies are supportive of the overarching vision of development which is that all
activities should be in harmony with nature or enhances the natural environment. All infrastructure
development must be undertaken with this in mind considering the fragile ecosystem of the city, the
limited space and water shortage. Economic activities shall also follow sustainable development practices
which is ensuring that needs of the future generation are provided for while using these resources for the
present generation.
In order to achieve the development vision and the enunciated development goals and objectives,
the following major development strategies/ policies shall be implemented.

Development Thrust
a.
Preservation of nature’s best and Ecological Balance
The importance of maintaining the ecological balance and conservation of the resources has been
increasingly becoming clear in the last two decades. It has now become necessary for Baguio City to
recognise this fact and plan what is known as 'sustainable development'.
This means that the requirements of the present generation in terms of economic growth and
community development (to provide for basic needs like food, water, shelter, education, etc) are met
without compromising on environmental protection. This will ensure that every generation will leave clean
air, water and soil resources for the future generations.
C.
Alternative Spatial Strategy
This phase aims to determine the most viable spatial strategy to realize the aspirations of the
people. This will be done by analyzing at least three alternative spatial strategies considering the
development potentials as well as the challenges most specially the availability/unavailability of lands
required to sustain the needs of the population. This will involve the projection of supply and demand of
urban land requirements, sieve-mapping analysis the generation of preferred urban form.
1.
The Alternative Spatial Strategy
In the selection of the preferred strategy, it is anchored on the city’s vision which is translated into
the development thrusts, the preservation of the nature’s best and ecological balance.
The method used for this purpose is the Goal Achievement Matrix. The goals of this plan that are
geared towards the attainment of the vision are assigned weights.

The Preferred Spatial Strategy: Multi-Nodal Urban Form
a.
Alternative 1: Trend Extension
Trend extension shows the future urban development as a continuation of the pattern of growth the
city has followed over the years. It resembles the Dispersed Sheet urban form of Kevin Lynch, which
described as having “maximum flexibility, personal comfort, independence and where local participation is
highly possible”. Trend extension is the result of individuals building anywhere according to their own
preferences and convenience with minimal government intervention. Development is spread evenly over a
wide continuous tract, very accessible to open land, and transportation is designed as a continuous grid.
Implication of this type of development: No vivid of memorable image of the city and costly provision of
public service.
b.
Alternative 2: Linear Urban Form
The linear urban form, also known as the ribbon or strip development, characterized by
concentration of development along both sides of major transportation routes such as roads, navigable
rivers or other form of transport network. It generally starts on a one-lot-deep into a grid system.
Residential, commercial, industrial, institutional and mixed-use developments intensify along these areas
through time. However, the magnitude of development will be bounded within reasonable distance from
the road or river easements. This can also be another form of trend extension. It also resembles what Kevin
Lynch refers to as the Urban Star which is characterized by a strong urban core with secondary centers of
moderate densities, distributed along main radial roads, Implications: very strong visual image;
congestions likely to occur in the urban core and the main radials; provision of circumferential road
networks to connect secondary centers can be costly.
c.
Alternative 3: Multi-Nodal Urban Form
The multi-nodal urban form re-directs development away from the urban core or city center
toward identified urban growth areas or nodes. It approximates Lynch’s Galaxy form, which is
characterized by cluster of development with each cluster having its own specialization. The major center
provides specialized facilities and services to its nodes and acts as its external linkage to the other centers
of the city or municipality. The nodes support the major center as its captive market while providing
neighborhood facilities and services to its area of influence. Under this urban form, a number of additional
mixed-use growth areas will be developed outside the Poblacion area or existing center of development.
Another related nodal-central type of development is radial and circumferential. It shows a development
Volume 1 – The Comprehensive Land Use Plan of Baguio City for 2013-2023
57
channel fanning out from a given center where points of activities are interconnected by radial and
circumferential road system which are potential development corridors.
d.
Alternative 4: Concentric Urban Form
The concentric urban form reflects an outward expansion of urban development from the city
center/core induced by the construction of new circumferential and radial roads. This spatial pattern
matches the Core City of Kevin Lynch which has the unique characteristic of concentrating development
into one continuous body originating from the center or core. Aiming to maximize land use in the Poblacion
or city center to provide more open space outside, this urban form redirects future development in and
around the Poblacion/city center, extending to the adjoining barangays or barrios. As a result, the direction
of growth enlarges the urban core. Confining development into one continuous body implies high density
urban activities that can increase discomfort from noise, pollution, etc. likewise, housing types are limited
to high-rise apartments or compact dwelling units to maximize space.
2.
The Preferred Spatial Strategy
A Multi-Nodal Urban Form concept is recommended in attaining the development goals of the city.
It is more advantageous to the Baguio’s unique terrain formation as this will re-direct development away
from and decongest the central business district (CBD) toward strategically identified urban growth areas
or nodes.
The CBD, as the core node, is supported by other strategically located smaller growth nodes along
Irisan, Marcos Highway, Camp 7/Loakan and Country Club. The smaller nodes are located near existing
settlements to provide convenience in terms of distance and travel time.
The city’s CBD have already an intense commercial activities with all the banking and finance
centers, the mall centers, the internet services centers, the city’s public market, Hotels and restaurants, the
SMEs and the tourist destinations, like Burnham park, Cathedral and even SM. Moreover, institutional
buildings, like private schools/universities, regional offices, and residential abodes are found therein. All
these activities have congested the CBD and has caused traffic jam, pollution, and problems on peace and
order. Hence, there is a need to establish multi-growth nodes in order to sustain a manageable core node
while enhancing potential development corridors along these other growth nodes.
The other growth nodes, on the other hand, are characterized by clusters of development having its
own specialization while providing daily needs and social services that would encourage residents not to
ply into the core node for such needed services. Camp 7 node includes a commercial area, an institutional
college school towards Bakakeng and PEZA zone at Loakan and thereby can specialize on export products
while enhancing the other services needed in the cluster area.
The Country Club Node includes the Baguio Country Club and other commercial activities at the
satellite market and its vicinity and the existing hotels and restaurants that already exist along GibraltarPacdal area. The Irisan Node along Irisan includes a proposed institutional zone along Irisan (at the former
BMI area), existing schools and commercial activities. Along Marcos Highway are existing commercial
areas.
The growth nodes are interconnected by an outer circumferential road that stretches from the PicoLamtang Road (La Trinidad, Benguet) - Naguilian Road - Marcos Highway via Asin Barangay - BalacbacBakakeng-Camp 7-Kadaclan, Happy Hollow –Pacdal – and loops to La Trinidad provides easier access to the
adjacent municipalities of La Trinidad, Tuba, Sablan and Itogon.
The middle ring passes through Bonifacio Street-North Drive, Governor Pack Road-Kisad RoadLegarda Street-Yandoc Street-Abanao Street-Bonifacio Street.
The inner ring passes through Bokawkan-Yandoc-Kisad-Military Cut-Off-South Drive-CircleLeonard Wood Road. Map 15 shows the growth nodes connected by the circumferential road.

a.1
General Climatic Type
Following the modified Coronas classification, Baguio City has Type 1 climate (Figure 5). The dry
season from November to April is affected by the northeast monsoon (Amihan). The wet season from May
to October is affected by the southwest monsoon (Habagat).
For the period 1970-2010, the average annual temperature is 19.5oC. The lowest is 18 oC in
January; the highest is 20.7oC in April (Figure 5). The lowest recorded for the day was 6.8oC on January 8,
1986 (Dickerson, 1923). The highest recorded was 30.4oC on March 15, 1988. Compared to the lowlands,
Baguio temperature is generally cooler by 9oC. This natural cool climate makes the city an ideal destination
especially during the summer months. In the 1930’s, the seat of national government would be transferred
during summer from Manila to Baguio; hence the latter gained the title “Summer Capital of the Philippines”
(Reed, 1976). However, recent years have not exempted the city from temperature rise.
Figure 5. Climograph for 1970-2010
For period 1970-2010, the highest monthly rainfall average of 914 mm happens in August (Figure
5). The lowest monthly rainfall average of 15 mm happens in January. The annual rainfall average for the
41-year period is 3900 mm. It is commonly in Baguio which registers the highest annual rainfall among all
PAGASA synoptic stations. The rainiest month is August showing an average of 27 rainy days. The driest
are January and February, showing only 3 days with rainfall.
It is in Baguio where the highest 24-hour rainfall for the country has been consistently observed
(Figure 5). The highest 24-hour rainfall of 1085.8 mm is the record highest for all PAGASA stations since
1948.
Volume 1 – The Comprehensive Land Use Plan of Baguio City for 2013-2023
60
In addition to the monsoons, climate in the city -like the rest of the Philippines- is affected by the
Intertropical Convergence Zone, El Niño/ La Niña, and tropical cyclones. It is further affected by orographic
lifting and subsequent formation of fog and rain clouds which bring strong rain and winds even during the
summer months (Olinares, unpublished data). ). The passage of typhoons, which happen during the
Habagat, is estimated to bring approximately 60% of the annual rainfall in the city. Of the 20 typhoons that
enter the PAR in a year, an average of 9 make landfall, and three are of typhoon level strength. (Abastillas,
2009; PAGASA, 2011). PAGASA records indicate that an average of 6 extreme typhoons enter the PAR every
year. 1
a.2
Topography and Slope
Baguio is the highest City in the Philippines. Elevations range from 900 m. along the Bued River to
1600 m. at Pacdal. Majority of the slopes (about 78% of total area) are gentle to moderately steep with
slope of less than 30%. Only about 22% of city’s land area has steep slopes greater than 30%. The
distribution of slopes, in hectares and percentage terms is shown in the table below.
The topographic features of the area exhibit the rugged topography of the Cordilleras. The variety
of natural landforms in the city with its pine covering makes the city’s towering landscape interesting.

Rough mountainous lands are to be found in the northwestern part of the study area. They can also
be found in the south, at the Kennon gorge. These lands are very rough and irregular and may be best
utilized for wildlife, forest, and watershed. Examples of these cliffs whose slopes sometimes approach 100
percent are found along Asin, Tuba, Kennon, and Naguilian Roads.
a.3
Soils
There are three (3) main types of soil in the study area: Bakakeng Sandy Clay Loam, Mirador Clay
Loam, and Tacdian Loam. Almost half of the study area is covered by the Bakakeng Sandy Loam, which
incidentally is the second largest soil group in southern Benguet. It cuts across the area from the north to
southeast and extends eastward to Itogon. Mirador Clay Loam is found in the southwestern part of the
study area. The smallest soil group, Tacdian Loam, lies in the mid-north of the area. The physical
characteristic of these soils types; their structure, consistency, and texture per horizon can be seen in the
table below.
Of the three- (3) soil types, Tacdian has the thinnest surface soil, being 5 to 10 centimeters from the
surface. Cultivation of this type of soil along steep slopes may, without adequate control of surface run-off,
result to its erosion down slope. Bakakeng Sandy Clay Loam and Mirador Clay Loam have thicker topsoil. If
however, they are cultivated along steep slopes, and no adequate measures are undertaken to control slope
erosion, the topsoil will gradually be washed away by running water. This eventually exposes the subsoil,
which is unproductive for plant growth. The external drainage of these soils is of the utmost importance.
The terrain where these soils are located can be best described as moderately steep to very steep. Without
adequate measures to regulate drainage’s, these soils will be excessively drained, thus resulting to massive
erosion.

River System
The city is criss crossed by several rivers among which are the Bued, Balili, Galiano –Camp-Asin,
Naguilian Rivers and Ambalanga. The widest river is the Bued River followed by the Balili River.

Drainage System
Surface water drains through the rivers; 1) to the east is the Ambalanga which follows a
southeasterly to easterly course and drains into the Agno River, 2) to the north is Balili River, which follows
a general northerly course and converges with the Bauang River basin to the north-northwest, 3) to the
west is the Galiano River which drains into the Aringay River; and 4) to the south is the Bued River which
drains into the Patalan River and the Lingayen Gulf.
Drainage facility at the Central Business District is through an underground drainage system along
Magsaysay Avenue constructed by the Department of Public Works and Highways and drains towards the
Balili River.

(1,600 Km long). The fault in Luzon divides the mountainous Central Cordillera from the lowlands
of the Central Valley Basin in the South. Three Earthquakes occurred in 1937, 1973 and 1975 that
resulted to left lateral movements of the fault. Eight similar strong earthquakes that happened in
1893, 1902, 1922, 1924, 1937, 1941, 1947 and 1948 had their epicenters along or very near this
fault zone.
northwards near Santa Fe/San Quintin, passing Baguio City at about 40 km to east. Prior to the July
16, 1990 earthquake, documented evidence reveals movement of the digdig fault.
There were two (2) earthquakes that occurred on July 16, 1990. Initially the epicenter was
located at 13 Km NNE of Cabanatuan City or about 90 Km SSE of Baguio while the other occurred 20
Km east of Baguio. The horizontal crustal shift, along the surveyed 135 km long inferred fault
rupture, exceeded 3 m, with 6.2 m as the largest displacement measured so far. Larger
displacements may have occurred in the unexplored mountain regions further northeast. The
vertical displacements, measured along the surveyed fault rupture, varied from 0 to a maximum of
1.5 m.

a.7.2 Local Faults
Although they are not active faults, the Mirador, San Vicente, Burnham, Loakan and Bued Faults are
local faults traversing through the built-up areas of Baguio City. Among the numerous faults intersecting
the city (Mirador, San Vicente, Burnham, Bued and Loakan faults) only the N45W trending San Vicente
Fault exhibited pronounced surface manifestations, such as landslides at the San Vicente area and
displacements at the Baguio Cemetery.
These are zones of weaknesses with thicker soil cover, highly fractured rocks; where energy is
released during earthquake therefore causing amplified ground shaking.

Geologic Hazard
The presence of several faults and lineaments in the City is aggravated by continuing denudation of
its vegetative cover resulting to soil exposure. The remaining vegetative cover, mostly cogon or grass
serves as replacements and can only protect a thin layer of soil that are very susceptible to erosion and
downgrading process. There are two types of mass movement prevailing in the city, earthquake induced,
and rain induced erosions. Landslides occur from several centimeters to hundreds of meters in area
dimension. It varies from soil to rock fall where huge boulders fall from steep slopes.
Baguio is periodically visited by earthquake. Temblors and tremors induced many of the present
slides. Most of these mass movements occur in unstable slopes while some can be attributed to ground
shaking and surface faulting and non-uniform movement of rock blocks along lines of weaknesses.
Landslides are likely to occur in faulted zones where unstable slope is dominant in the formations
(Klondyke and Zigzag). The July 16, 1990 earthquake resulted to an over abundance of landslides that
caused numerous deaths and massive destruction of properties. These losses could have been mitigated or
minimized by engineering and geologic investigation or by a hazard assessment and zonation of the City.
Rain induced mass movement occurs during heavy rains. Man-made factors are highly contributory
to this type of mass movement. The demand for housing due to a rapidly increasing population resulted to
uncontrolled land development, i.e. excavations, and settlement along unstable slopes and the dissipation
of the vegetative cover leaves the soil exposed to over saturation that ultimately results to erosion and
landslides. These natural processes led to the alteration of city’s natural drainage system. On the other
hand, the drainage system established in the developed areas is now very inadequate due to clogging. Many
spoil banks slides are attributed to the changes in the drainage system due to road and building/house
constructions. Considering Baguio’s high relief and steep slopes, water discharge travel fast and with
improper drainage this will scour road banks, residential areas with steep and unstable slopes resulting to
the weakening of base. Indiscriminate concreting of city roads has resulted in the increased volume of runoff that caused flooding in some areas of the city.
With all these types of hazards facing the city, the Mines and Geosciences Bureau in CAR prepared a
Geohazard Map (Landslide Susceptibility) considering these various factors and classified the areas of the
city into high, moderate, low landslide susceptibility (See Figure 28). Only the central part of Baguio was
mapped covering about 30 square kilometers of land or about half of the city’s total land area. (See table
below)

Of the almost 30 hectares mapped, 60% or about 18 hectares have unstable areas while only 2 % or
less than one hectare has low landslide susceptibility. Areas with high landslide susceptibility are
considered unstable areas with highly susceptible mass movements.

Part of Baguio lies atop a limestone formation, which explains the numerous sinkholes underneath
some parts of the City. Sinkholes develop when the limestone formation is dissolved as a result of
weathering due to exposure to running water. According to the Bureau of Mines there are four (4) major
sinkholes in City, namely; City Camp Proper, Crystal Cave, Dominican and Green Valley. These areas are
classified as high-risk areas. The exposure of the underground streams through karst windows may result
in time due to gradual caving. Primarily, the failure or collapse of the roof or crown pillars that could induce
surface ground subsidence and sinkhole formation particularly in areas above caverns and galleries where
roof/crown pillars are not strong enough may not support the overlying load.
Recent mapping of the MGB –CAR last year showed that there are about 25 sinkholes (including
minor ones) mapped across Baguio City. The barangays most affected are Dontogan, Asin, Lourdes and
Quezon Hill.
In addition to the dangers of sinkhole where some residential areas are located, there are also some
residential houses located near or on drainage areas thereby posing hazard to lives and properties. This
situation necessitates the preparation of a more detailed and exhaustive geological underground and
surface mapping of the entire city that will guide the local government prepare the necessary mitigating
policies and measures that will guide legislators and executives in their decision-making processes. Buffer
zones should be provided along waterways or residents existing therein should be required to establish
mitigating measures to protect lives and properties. There is also a need for the strict enforcement of the
law on easement on waterways.
The city’s land supply is physically constrained by topography with most of its area having slopes
ranging from 0-50%. However, most of these areas have already been developed. Slope protection
measures were introduced by landowners making it fit for residential and other purposes. Soil testing is
another requirement especially for proposed buildings that are beyond 3 storey to determine the capacity
of the soil in terms of holding the structure. Likewise, owners are required to secure an Environmental
Compliance Certificate (ECC) with the Department of Environment and Natural Resources. The ECC is
expected to look on the environmental concerns of any proposed development project.
Based on the sieve mapping analysis, there is a very limited vacant land that is available in the city
for further development. The zoning map has been arrived at after superimposing the fault lines, sink holes
and slope maps. The following table shows the land area per land use category based on the existing and
proposed land use maps. The existing land use was based on the satellite image data as provided by the
Saint Louis University. The areas were computed using GIS technology.

GEOLOGY
b.2.1 Zigzag Formation
This is a sequence of Late Oligocene to Early Miocene conglomerates, sandstones and shales, in
places with limestone lenses uncomformably resting on top of the Pugo Formation. A portion of this
sedimentary sequence is intruded by quartz diorite porphyry, producing mineralized skarns and marbles.
The Halfway Creek Formation (UNDP, 1987) and Camp Three Beds (Mitchell & Leach, 1991) were regarded
as part of Zigzag Formation. Among the formations in the area, this unit is considered to have the highest
potential for groundwater.
b.2.2 Kennon Formation
This Middle Miocene formation unconformably overlies the Zigzag formation and rests below the
Klondyke Formation. It consists principally of massive to buff gray biohermal limestone with associated
calcarenites and calcirudites. The basal portion consists of wackes, including a conglomeratic calcarenite
which contains clasts of volcanic rocks, diorite pebbles and cobbles. Lenses of sandstones and siltstones up
to 0.3 m thick have been observed in the middle section. Mirador Limestone is considered here as part of
Kennon Formation (S. David). For groundwater resources, the Kennon Formation is deemed to have more
moderate potential.
b.2.3 Klondyke Formation
This is a thick sequence of Middle Miocene to early late Miocene clastic sedimentary rocks
consisting mainly of polymictic conglomerates with interbedded sandstones, siltstones, shales and in places
intercalated with flow breccias and pyroclastic rocks. It rests unconformably over the Kennon Limestone
and underlies wide areas of the western sides of Baguio City Quadrangle and exposed at higher elevation.
Different authors give different thickness. Balce et al (1980) gave an estimate of 1,798 meters for the
Volume 1 – The Comprehensive Land Use Plan of Baguio City for 2013-2023
82
Kennon Road section but admit it might be higher in other places. Durkee and Pederson (1961) estimated
the thickness in this section to be 2,820 m. De Leon, et al (1990) gave an estimate of 3,500 m. for Marcos
Highway section of the formation. Valley areas overlying this formation may yield small quantities of
groundwater but most parts have poor groundwater potential (Quema, 1971). Monzon (1991) meanwhile,
reported the presence of saturated zone in the conglomerates, limestone and sandstone in the area. Based
on these observations, this study considered the Klondyke formation as having moderate potential for the
groundwater availability.
b.2.4 Black Mountain Quartz Diorite Porphyry
This is typified by the quartz diorite porphyry which hosted copper deposits and other
mineralization in the district. It is differentiated from the CCD by its porphyric texture and younger age
(Late Miocene). Like the CCD however, this rock unit has low potential for groundwater availability.

Historical Seismicity of Baguio City and Vicinity
The PHIVOLCS earthquake and catalogue seismicity maps show so far, seven (7) historically and
instrumentally recorded destructive earthquakes (Intensity VII-IX in the adapted Rossi-Forel scale) have
affected Baguio City for the past 356 years (1645-2001). These roughly translate into a return period of at
least one destructive earthquake (Intensity VII to IX) for every 50 years. In addition, there were four very
destructive earthquakes during the 356-year period for a return period of at least one very destructive
earthquake (Intensity VIII to IX) for every 89 years. In comparison, regional probabilistic seismic hazard
calculations by Thenhaus (1994) yielded annual probability rates of Ms 6.4 to <7.0 (1 in 23 years), 7.0 to
<7.3 (1 in 62 years), Ms <8.2 (1 in 166 years)

Sieve Mapping
Using Geographic Information System (GIS) Technology, this process was done by using the various
thematic maps to determine the most suitable areas for urban expansion. First, all areas that are reserved
for specific use and are covered by Presidential Proclamation are extracted from the land use map as these
are to be preserved and therefore cannot be converted into other uses. These are the Forest reservations,
parks, institutional and other uses. Sinkhole areas where ground subsidence may occur are proposed to be
unbuildable areas.
The following thematic maps were considered:
a.
Barangay Boundaries
b.
Existing Land Use
c.
All areas covered by Presidential Proclamations (Reservations)
d.
Hazard map showing the location of sinkholes, fault lines

General Land Use Proposals
a.
Residential Areas
The shelter needs of the population will be provided through the infill of existing residential areas.
Residential zone is categorized into R1 or low density residential areas, R2 for medium density and R3 for
high density residential areas. The area being utilized as residential purposes which is 3,239.92 hectares
has decreased to 3,063.33 hectares in the proposed land use plan.
While Bakakeng Norte/Sur is zoned as Residential R1 Zone, this plan has delineated areas that
would permit the operation of institutional support facilities such as dormitory, bookstore, grocery and the
like.

Watershed Reservations/Protected Areas
The urban forest is another critical means of preserving and protecting the natural environment
and, in particular, helping to improve the air quality and supply of water in the city.
These are mostly found within forest/watershed reservations. Aside from this, planting and
growing of trees along streets and roadways, as well as on private lands is encouraged.
All forest/water reserves will be maintained. Watershed/Protected Forest Zone have an aggregate
area of 240.37 hectares. Some portions of Forbes Park have been released to actual occupants for
residential purposes. Republic Act No. 8963, which is entitled “An act excluding from the Baguio Townsite
Reservation and from the operation of Proclamation No. 10 dated February 9, 1924, and Proclamation No.
63 dated August 6, 1925, which established the Forbes Forest Reservation and the Government Center,
respectively, all situated in the City of Baguio, Island of Luzon, certain portions of land within lots 1,2,3,4,5
and 6 embraced therein and declaring the same alienable and disposable lands for disposition to qualified
applicants under Republic Act. No. 730.”
Proclamation 198 dated June 29, 1993 provided the transfer of the John Hay Air Station to the
Bases Conversion and Development Authority, renaming it as Club John Hay, and declaring it for tourism,
human resource development center and multiple use forest watershed reservation. This has an area of
570 hectares, more or less. Presidential Proclamation No. 420 dated July 5, 1994, likewise, designated
portion of the former Camp John Hay as the John Hay Special Economic Zone pursuant to Republic Act
7227. Likewise, Executive Order No. 64 was issued by President Ramos, declaring the property of the Bases
Conversion and Development Authority located in Scout Barrio, Baguio City as housing site and providing
for its disposition to bonafide occupants. All developments therein shall conform to their
Volume 1 – The Comprehensive Land Use Plan of Baguio City for 2013-2023

designated functions as specified under the laws that amended the same. Development shall likewise
conform to the city’s approved CLUP and zoning ordinance.
i.
Parks and Gardens
These include all major parks and those parks at the various barangays that are existing and
identified by the City Land Needs Identification Committee.
The parks offer a wide range of activities such as children play, sports fields and facilities, picnic
areas and tourist attractions.
While existing parks are comparatively -maintained, more funding is needed for modern
equipment, walling, edging, path repair, lighting, maintenance of planting strips, etc. The following parks
have been considered for upgrading: Burnham Park, Wright Park, Mines View Park, Sunshine Park,
Filipino-Japanese Friendship Garden, Aguinaldo Park and the Botanical Garden.

j.
Green Corridors along Major Thoroughfares
Major highways should be greened by the planting of avenues where space allows. In other places,
trees could cluster on unused areas. This should be coordinated with the removal of informal shops (i.e.
auto repair shops, woodworks), which disfigure some streets and also congest some traffic flows. Proper
boundary fencing, surfacing of footways and margins and the removal of superfluous signs would also help.
Key intersections and viewpoints could be celebrated by sculpture or rotundas. Taken together with the
avenues, these could create a network of green routes that would unify the urban pattern.

Identification Committee. Various sites have been identified by the barangays and
the city as well for various uses within the different barangays such as parks, alleys,
day care centers, barangay halls/health centers, tanod outposts, waiting sheds and
other needs for public use.
The City of Baguio is of considerable historic significance. This section outlines the basis for a
conservation policy. Public education where NGOs/POs would play a lead role shall be sustained over the
years in order to create the necessary climate of opinion. The following are the general categories of
conservation action (Lifted from BLIST Urban and Regional Development Plan):
a.
Fabric Conservation of Buildings
a.1 Grade One Buildings – these may be regarded as significant for the wider region or for the
nation. These need to be listed and protected by legislation; public funds should be used to lever private
funds in their conservation; major tax concessions should be granted; and the authorities should be proactive in organizing their restoration. The following key buildings are identified in the Baguio and Dagupan
Urban Planning Project as examples as worthy of preservation and/or improvement

Baguio City Hall
The City Hall was built in 1909 at the same time as
the City was granted a special charter under the tutelage of
American Mayor E.J. Halsema. The original City Hall was
bombed in 1945 and subsequently restored after the war.
The classical lines of the façade of this institutional building
and its imposing location are appropriate for its function and
significance. The tower of the city hall stands out from afar to
mark and identify the building.

Diplomat Hotel
The Diplomat Hotel is located at the summit of Mirador
Hill. Mirador Hill is a vantage point, which allows a bird’s eye
view of the entire city. The hotel was designed in classic fashion
using a series of arched windows at ground floor level and
rectangular windows along the second floor. There is an arched
“porte cocehere” at the center of the building with a balconied
roof, which breaks the continuous series of windows. The railings
of the deck roof crown the building with imposing regality when
viewed from the lower portion of the city. The prominent cross
belies the religious origins of the building. Unfortunately, the
Diplomat Hotel was damaged by the 1990 earthquake. No
rehabilitation has been completed on the building to date and it remains closed to the public.
Volume 1 – The Comprehensive Land Use Plan of Baguio City for 2013-2023
102

Little Flower Novitiate
The Little Flower Novitiate near the Mansion House is an
intersecting three storey building. The rounded corners of the
building soften the overall form while the frequency of the vertical
lines provides a fragile visual rhythm. The repeated crossed
detailing along the cornice provides an interesting visual break.
Canopies at first and second levels break the regularity of the
vertical lines.

Old School Buildings
There are many school buildings in Baguio City and the
adjoining municipalities. Significant among them are the Quezon
Elementary School and the North Baguio Central School.

Baguio General Hospital
This is an old colonial hospital with an imposing façade,
arched entrance way and windows. The controlled simplicity of
lines and the low elevation of the building blend well with the
topography. The value of this institution, its intrinsic significance to
the well -being of the people of Baguio, the hope and relief it
represents, should encourage preservation of this complex.

Gasiaco Recoletos Seminary Building
The Recoletos Seminary Building is located along Asin
Road near the junction of Quirino Highway. The building was
remodeled in 1952-53. The elongated lines of the building are
punctuated by a “porte cochere” and uniformly placed simple
windows. It is fronted by a wide driveway.
Volume 1 – The Comprehensive Land Use Plan of Baguio City for 2013-2023
103

Baguio Catholic Cathedral
The Baguio Catholic Cathedral and the Cross of the
Saviour was founded by the Scheut Fathers of Belgium. They
took advantage of the availability of choice sites during the
formation stage of Baguio and selected hilltop overlooking
Session Road for the cathedral. The most prominent feature of
the cathedral is the two high steeples. The cathedral has a
beautiful interior, utilizing narra wood. The natural lighting of
the interior comes from stained glass windows.

Bell Tower Temple
Bell Tower Temple is better known as the Chinese
Temple. It is located along La Trinidad Valley Road near
the city limits. The complex is an interplay of temple, bell
tower and garden. There is an interesting flight of stairs.


Convent of the Most Blessed Sacrament
(The Pink Sister’s Convent)
A peaceful place with a lovely garden and remarkable
chapel, in the vicinity of General Luna and Leonard Wood Roads,
where the sisters adopt a reclusive way of life.

Garden Statuary
Along Marcos Highway the owner of one house has transformed the garden with large concrete
figures. It is an interesting example of modern private sculpture in Baguio, which may be an example for
future, such individualism in the vicinity.

Various Old Houses to the East of Burnham Park
These are some of the 128 lots sold in 1908 for residential and commercial purposes. In the area
are some of the oldest and the most pleasant timber houses in Baguio. As a whole, they constitute an
enticing area although many of the properties are in need of restoration and renovation. Remedial work is
required such as repairing sidewalks, removing billboards and advertisements, providing suitable street
lamps, harmonizing fences, and avoiding inappropriate new construction. The authorities could possibly
ensure that the owners qualify for aid to encourage them to restore their houses for the benefit of the
Volume 1 – The Comprehensive Land Use Plan of Baguio City for 2013-2023
104
community and visitors alike. The strategic location of these houses close to Burnham Park clearly
deserves special attention.

Other Old Houses
These generally timber board structures contribute to the hill resort character of Baguio.
Unfortunately, lack of maintenance is very apparent. The first step in their preservation could be to
catalogue all these buildings, including ownerships, history, construction materials, features, location and
setting.

Lourdes Grotto (Dominican Hill)
Dominican Hill gives a bird eye’s view of the city. The
Lingayen Gulf at San Fernando, La Union can be seen from this
vantage point on clear days. The Jesuits constructed the famous
Grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes on Dominican Hill. The grotto can
be reached by driving up a slope or negotiating a long flight of
stairs. The stairs provide an interesting play of horizontal lines
identical to the piano keyboard effect. The stairway is topped by
the venerated shrine of the grotto at the summit.

Aguinaldo Park
Aguinaldo Park is located in Barangay General Luna. In
the park is a monument in honour of General Emilio Aguinaldo in
the form of a horse-riding image of the hero. Also located at the
park is the Aguinaldo \museum built in likeness to a traditional
Ifugao house. This museum houses the memorabilia of General
Aguinaldo.

The Mansion House
The Mansion House is reserved for the exclusive use of the
President. The house faces a huge well-treed garden and an imposing
driveway. The mansion is an arched edifice of elegance.
Volume 1 – The Comprehensive Land Use Plan of Baguio City for 2013-2023
105

Camp John Hay
Camp John Hay was established in 1903 under Major
General J. Franklin Bell as a summer retreat for the enlisted men of
the U.S. Army due to the perpetually cool weather. Through the
years, under succeeding commanding officers, the camp was
developed to provide cottages, hospital dormitories, a golf course,
tennis courts and recreation hall.
Camp John Hay has witnessed the unfolding of history.
Baguio grew in concert with this camp. It was the last stronghold
of the resistance, particularly the 45th Infantry and Companies A
and B of the Philippine Scouts. During the occupation of the
Japanese, it was used as a concentration camp. Camp John Hay
was the site of surrender of the Japanese forces under General Yamashita at the residence of the High
Commissioner on 3rd September 1945. Plans to intensify the uses in the Club without sacrificing its
character are currently being discussed.
The Main Club is the central feature and originally accommodated vacationing US Army servicemen.
After the camp was transferred to the Government of the Philippines, the club was converted to a first class
hotel.
Named after General Franklin Bell in 1929, the Bell Auditorium is located near Scout Hill at Club
John Hay. It is well-maintained, terraced open-air amphitheater in a semi-circular valley below what used
to be the house of the Commanding General. This auditorium is used for open-air concerts and
performances and can seat a thousand spectators.

106
a.2 Grade Two Buildings – these may be regarded as significant at the local level only. Since the
Philippines is not a rich nation, it seems advisable to focus scarce public funds only on “Grade One
buildings”.

Character Conservation
Buildings are not isolated objects. They often gain importance from their setting,
which may be an ensemble of buildings, spaces, groundscape, trees etc. The real issue is to conserve the
character of the totality. From this arises the idea of “Conservation Area”. This plan has identified
significant areas for preservation. Boundaries should be determined including key features for protection
and desired actions and design characters. A detailed Heritage Plan shall be pursued by the City
Government.

Special Areas of Significance
1.
Session Road
Establish Session Road as promenade area to limit pollution levels in the Central Business District.
A thorough study should be undertaken inasmuch as the proposal will affect the traffic flow in the Central
Business District.
Commercial Buildings in these areas should be encouraged to landscape the rooftops to increase
GHG sequestration.
2.
Leonard Wood Road
Greenbelts along this area should be protected and further enhanced.
3.
South Drive
Maintain natural forest cover and bar massive developments in the area
4.
Kennon Road
Pursue and support the declaration of Kennon Road as a Heritage Area. Massive tree planting
activity is necessary in the area to prevent erosion and improve air ambient quality.
5.
Marcos Highway
Planting of trees of medium height along roadside should be implemented to protect the panoramic
vista at the same time control erosion within that area.
The New Land Use Plan has identified portion along this area as Commercial C2. Commercial
activities as identified in the plan shall strictly comply with the provision of adequate parking spaces and
other pertinent laws. Auto repair, welding and related activities shall be contained within the lot
boundaries and should not utilize sidewalks for such activities as well as for parking.

Indicators reveal a high performance of the employment sector between 2000 to 2007. The
erratic trends of unemployment and underemployment as well as the declining Labor Force
Participation Rates is due to the global economic recession. For underemployment however, the City
ranked second in the Region next to Kalinga that registered an all time high rate of 18.1 percent.
f.
Family Income and Expenditure
The main sources of income for families in the city are from; 1) Salaries and Wages (61
percent); 2) Entrepreneurial Activities (20 percent); and 3) other activities (19 percent). Most of those
earning salaries and wages gain income from employment in service-oriented private enterprises.
Entrepreneurial activities was a second major source of income, while other sources included netshares from crops produced, livestock raised by other households, rentals, cash receipts and the like.
A comparative presentation of income and expenditure for Baguio City residents from the
Family Income and Expenditure Survey conducted every three years reveal that the average income of
households had been steadily increasing since 2000 up to 2009. The average monthly income ranged
from Php 16,199.16 per month in 2000 and increased to Php 20,268.00 by 2009. Expenditure on the

Annual Per Capita Poverty Threshold and the Incidence of
Poor Families
Baguio City is a high in-migration area in the North. It being the only highly urbanized city
in this part of the country, it has played vital socio-economic roles vital for its neighboring areas
and continues to attract people from all walks of life.
Life in the City will not be the same for all its residents, considering various factors and the
ability to cope with a rapidly changing lifestyle vis-à-vis the cost of living in an urban situation. The
incidence of poverty is a natural social phenomenon that occur due to the inability of the population
to provide and sustain the basic needs for survival as food, clothing, shelter and security.
Based on census data covering three periods since 2006 to 2012, following are poverty
indicators for the City of Baguio.
Table 8. Poverty Indicators, 2006, 2009 and 2012.

Data Source: NSCB
Based on the above table, the City now has a total of 4,300 poor families. The situation
presents a very significant reduction of 1.8 percent from its 6.1 percent level in 2006. Despite the
economic global recession, there had been better opportunities for the marginal households in the
City. The incidence of poor families in the City has improved considerably compared with the
regional standing that was pegged at 6.1 percent in 2006 and 4.3 percent last year.
The per capita poverty threshold increase because of inflation and therefore the amount of
money needed to keep a family of 5 grew. In 2009, you need only Php 8,096.00 for a family of 5 but
now you need 9,407.00.
With population expected to follow an upward trend, the need to intensify socio-economic
mitigations to buffer the proportionate increase of the incidence of poor families in the City.

a.
Situationer
The City through the Health Services Office (HSO) continuously perform its mandate for the
protection of all its constituents in the 128 Barangays vis-à-vis the demand of a growing population
who are exposed to emerging and re-emerging diseases and to the different environmental health
hazards.
For health programs to be successful and sustainable, there is a need to increase
collaborative efforts and partnership with the local and national agencies, private sectors and its
communities.
A lot has still to be done so that health programs are subjected to reforms, transformations
or modifications, if not, introduction of new systems.
b.
Comparative Vital Statistics
The graph below shows a significant decrease in deaths among infants in 2012 as compared
to previous years; a slight decrease in crude birth rate is also observed. Maternal death and crude
death rates have slightly increased. Data sets in 2011 and 2012 include non-residents of Baguio
who were born or who died in health facilities in the City, being a referral center from facilities
outside the city. Data presented for 2010 are only those births and deaths of residents in Baguio

The leading causes of morbidity and mortality among the general population have remained
essentially the same. Except for dog bites, vascular diseases and asthma, the major reasons why
people sought medical consultation were mostly infectious in nature (Table 10). Dog bites and
diarrhea cases saw an increase in incidence in 2012, becoming the second and third leading causes
of morbidity. The other causes, however, have decreased as compared to the past three-year
average.

The healthy lifestyle promotion reports in 2010 show that the surge of chronic lifestylerelated non-communicable diseases (NCD) in the Philippines is no longer a looming epidemic but a
real one. In fact, 90% of adult Filipinos have at least one or more risk factors for the 4 major NCDs
namely a) cardiovascular diseases, b) chronic respiratory diseases, c) diabetes mellitus, and d)
cancers. In Baguio City, the double burden of communicable and non-communicable diseases, the
amount of death and disability due to NCDs is far greater than those due to infectious diseases for
the past 3 years.
In the 2010 causes of morbidity, hypertension ranked 7th. It rose to fifth (5th) rank in 2011
and 2012. Hypertensive patients are likewise increasing in number. This can be attributed to the
major risk factors of physical inactivity, unhealthy diet, vices like alcohol intake and cigarette
smoking.
The four (4) major non-communicable disease remain among the top ten leading causes of
mortality, namely, cardiovascular (heart and vascular) diseases, cancer, diabetes mellitus, and
chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD). These are all linked by common risk factors which
are present in the population.
Among the adolescent age group 15-19 years old, the leading risk factors are inadequate
dietary fiber intake, physical inactivity and alcohol intake. For the adult group 20-49 years old, risk
factors are physical inactivity, obesity and smoking. While the elderly group 50 years old and above
are hypertension, inadequate fiber intake and physical inactivity. The different health districts are
already addressing these through advocacy, counselling, physical activities like exercises or
attendance to fun runs, referral when necessary.

Neonatal Mortality Rate has decreased from 8.46 deaths per 1,000 live births in 2010 to
6.91 deaths per 1,000 live births in 2012. The Infant Mortality Rate and Under Five Mortality Rate
per 1,000 live births in Baguio City are lower than the national target for the past three years. IMR
of 11.82 per 1,000 live births in 2010 decreased to 10.04 per 1,000 live births in 2012. The most
common causes of infant death is prematurity and pneumonia ranks second. Neonatal mortality
accounts for 35.88% of the Under Five Mortality. This translates to 47 newborn babies dying in
Baguio City. There are 10,557 live births registered in 2012; 6,583 or 60.18% of these births come
from residents of the city while 4,204 or 39.82% come from the surrounding provinces and
municipalities.
Immunization saves lives. It is one of the most successful cost-effective public health
interventions. For 2012, the total number of fully immunized children (FIC) is 8,671 or 94.85%,
lower than the national target which is 95% and higher than the 2006 national average of 86
percent. There were no confirmed case of measles, polio, diphtheria and pertussis. There is also an
increasing accomplishment for the Measles Mumps Rubella (MMR) vaccine targeting the 12-15
months children. There is a very high coverage of BCG at 112.45 % and Hep B within 24 hours at
99.86% because the newborns are immunized before they are discharged from the hospital, Office.
The immunization accomplishment is a public partnership among the government and private
health facilities in Baguio City which includes accomplishment of the 16 district health centers, 1
government hospital, 4 private hospitals and 50 Pediatricians in their clinics.
Infant and under- five mortality rates remained lower than the national target for the past
years. The most common causes of under- five deaths are listed in Table 13, some of which are
infectious in nature and preventable like pneumonia and diarrhea. There are 10,557 live births
registered in 2012; about 60.18% of these births come from residents of the city while 39.82% or
4,204 come from the surrounding provinces and municipalities.

Maternal factors/ Maternal Health
There are more neonates dying than infants which indicate the need to focus on maternal
health during pregnancy like regular prenatal check-ups, good maternal care and nutrition that will
ultimately prevent neonatal illnesses and deaths.
Maternal mortality rate almost doubled in 2012 compared to the previous years but still
better than the national target. All of these cases delivered in the hospitals. While maternal care
services are being accessed by women, complications of pregnancy and delivery still do happen
anytime. Of the six maternal deaths, only two were from Baguio City; the rest were referrals from
the nearby provinces – Pangasinan, Benguet and La Union. The causes of death of these cases are
summarized in Table 14.

Prenatal mortality reflects the efficacy of maternal and child care services. The health of the
fetus and the infant depends a great deal on the health of the pregnant woman and the quality of
care provided to the mother and the newborn infant. The prenatal mortality rate in Baguio City has
remained below the national target and, therefore, comparatively better. While the health facilities
cater to only about half of the pregnant women, the CBMIS would show that most pregnant women
seek prenatal consultations either with private or public providers. Except for a few, almost all
pregnant women delivered in health facilities, assisted by skilled birth attendants (doctors, nurses,
midwives), far surpassing the national target of only 90%.
There are some indicators on reproductive health services that show slow or no progress.
Contraceptive prevalence rates (CPR), while showing an increasing trend from 11.79% in 2010 to
17.13% in 2012, have the not reached the national target of 55.6%. Report from the Baguio General
Hospital and Medical Center FP Clinic has been added to the data in 2012. Various forms of modern
contraception are preferred, with the largest proportion of women using injectable contraceptives
(DMPA) followed by bilateral tubal ligation and then oral contraceptives. The natural forms of
contraception, such as the Billings and cycle beads, have low utilization rates.

City Nutrition Program
For years , it has been the objective of the Health Services Office to minimize the problems
being encountered on the programs of Protein energy malnutrition and iron deficiency anemia;
Vitamin A and iodine deficiencies ; Obesity among children and adults and Nutritional risk factors

Operation timbang (OPT) done was consolidated at 76.69% for children actually weighed as
against the estimate population of 0-71 children (Table 16), close to that of 2011 (75.68%). The
identified severely underweight decreased from 121 (0.315) to 101 (0.24%) while combined
severe and underweight also decreased from 817 (1.77%) to 646 (1.54%). The overweight was
reduced from 277 (0.70%) to 227 (0.54%). The new child growth standard (CGS) was used starting
CY 2010. No height was taken since the TOT training was only done during the last quarter of 2012
and re- echoed to the grass-roots last December.
Not all severely underweight comes from impoverished families , therefore does not
undergo case study, but is still a big challenge and undertaking by the BNS and BNC to have their
identified in-need severe and underweights go to the health centers for close monitoring of their
cases as well as avail of free services like the laboratory examinations.
Salt testing to determine usage of iodized salt is done together with the conduct of
operation timbang (OPT) and garantisadong pambata (GP) for the household level and done by the
Barangay nutrition volunteers under close supervision of the Nutrition Coordinators. Salt testing
for the food establishments and market area is requested to be done by the Sanitary Inspectors (SI)
who covers them. The National ASIN monitoring team met with the City Mayor and reiterated more
hands to help in the Salt iodization Plant and closer monitoring by a re-activated City Salt Iodization
Monitoring Team.

Dental Health Services
The accomplishment of the oral health program has improved as compared to the past
years with an increase of in the number of orally fit children and an increase in pregnant women
and elderly clients. To be able to provide the required dental health services to target clients, the
City Government and our other partners, like the local dental chapter and the DOH-CAR, provided
support in terms of facility upgrading, equipping, and provision of supplies.

The observed increase in pregnant women provided with basic oral health care (BOHC) is
due to referral of health workers during buntis days and the scheduling of dental clinics to coincide
with prenatal clinics at the health facilities. Pregnant clients undergo individual chair side
instruction on dental health especially during this stage of hormonal changes where the oral cavity
is affected. They are encouraged to have oral prophylaxis after pregnancy.
g.
Adolescents and Youth/Population Management Program
The AYHD Program has three main strategies, namely: Adolescent Reproductive Health
(ARH) Training, Teen Center/Corner (TC) development and Population Education (POP-ED)
Lectures to Grade 5 and 6. The accomplishments from 2010 to 2011 on these three have been
reduced with significant decrease on POP-ED Lectures due to fast turn-over of personnel thereby,
decreasing output. From 2011 to 2012, a significant increase in outputs in all activities have been
observed due to complete personnel complement and a positive response and acceptance of the
school personnel.
One unique program for the youth is the Bonjing e-inquiry or Bonjing website where the
CPO is the program leader. Initiatives like re- launching of bonjing website at the Baguio City
National High School in 2011 and involving other 6 more high schools in 2012 have increased
supporters and clients for bonjing.
There is increasing number of barangays involved in orientation and planning on POP-DEV.
and this 2012, only 8 barangays have been left out for orientation which are included in the Central
Business District. After orientation, planning on activities that will be funded by the barangays
have been initiated by the Population Staff. Out of 120 barangays, only 58 barangays have
implemented the activities. It needs a very close coordination with the barangays to assure fast
release of funds for this purpose.

Disease- free zones
h.1 Rabies
By 2020 the Philippines shall be declare a rabies-free country thus Baguio City has
remained rabies-free for the past eight years. Rabies should be eliminated as public health problem
at less than 0.5 cases per million population. The animal bite cases seen and managed at the Animal
Bite Treatment Center (ABTC) have steadily increased from 2010 to 2012 there were 1,265 (26%)
cases from outside of Baguio City which contributed to high animal bite cases for the year, most of
the bites are classified under Category II (55.1%) followed by Category III (41.7%) which are transdermal bites, and the least is Category I (3.2%). Majority of the bite wounds were inflicted by dogs
(92.1%), and cats (6.3%); pig and monkey bites constitute only 0.1%. Others (1.4%) are rats,
rabbits and insects which are not rabies-prone animals.
The Animal Bite Training Center continues to receive support from the city government and
DOH Center for Health Development-CAR in terms of vaccines, IEC materials and other medical
supplies.

h.2 Leprosy
There were three new cases of leprosy who are on continuing treatment of MDT. However,
there were three old cases who have defaulted; one has died in Feb 2012 and two have not reported
back for treatment. This has been reported immediately to the district health center or to the CHDCAR Leprosy Coordinator.
Treatment with MDT drugs, prednisone, soap and skin ointments and iron with folic acid tablets
continue to be provided by the HSO.
h.3 Tuberculosis (TB)
The case detection for smear positive TB decreased from 24% in 2011 to 23% in 2012. This
is way below the the National Target of 70%. Moreover for the Cure Rate of smear positive TB has
decrease from 81% of 2011 to 77% of 2012 and is also below the national target of more than
85%.
For the mortality rate from TB increased from 13 deaths of 2011 to 29 deaths of 2012 per
100,000 population. The morbidity rate increased from 163 cases of 2011 to 391 cases- BHD TB
registry of 2012 per 100,000 population. This however is way below the national target of 35
deaths and 434 cases per 100,000 population respectively. Baguio City continues to sustain its low
morbidity and mortality due to Tuberculosis. This is a reflection also of a very low Case Detection
and Cure Rate of the city. Despite the low CDR and CR, the city NTP coordinators had continued to
tie with up with partners (private hospitals and laboratories, pharmacies, companies like SM
Baguio), and cater to needs of special population like the Baguio City Jail inmates.

h.4 HIV/ AIDS and other Reproductive Tract Infections
The prevalence rate of HIV/AIDS this year has almost gone to zero but for one blood donor
with a known risky behavior reported by the Philippine Red Cross (PRC). Perhaps the transmission
of HIV has become lower and slower in Baguio after a fast and furious growth last 2011 at the
national level and a massive information drive on its prevention. Furthermore the incidence of
Gonorrhea has steadily decreased.
A total of 50 cases have been recorded in the Local AIDS Registry since 1992 with one case
of a 24 y/o male blood donor this year against 8 HIV in 2011.
Non-Gonococcal Infections (NGI) has been steadily decreasing since 2008, along with the
other Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI) such as Gonorrhea (GC) and Trichomoniasis.
Surprisingly, all three STI such as GC, NGI and Trichomoniasis have gone to their lowest rates this
year since 1996. However, syphilis cases have peaked in incidence this year compared to previous
years. All cases are above 18 years old, an indicator that perhaps there is a delayed sex initiation.
Syphilis remains to be a proxy indicator for HIV, so that even if HIV has gone to its lowest rate, there
is still the threat of silent transmission among vulnerable groups particularly the young and MSM .
The district health facilities have reported cervicitis as the most common findings done
syndromically. Vaginitis is only 3 less than last year. There is also an improved reporting of
abdominal pain, differentiating Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) against STI.
i.
Soil Transmitted Helminthiasis
Reducing the prevalence of soil transmitted helminthiasis infection among the 1-12 years
old children, the adolescent females, pregnant women and special population groups of food
handlers/operators, farmers, soldiers and indigenous peoples are the main goals for 2012 . Record
shows that in year 2012, 3.87% of the children belonging to the 0-12 years of age examined are
positive for soil transmitted helminthiasis, higher than that of 2011.

Tobacco Control Program
World Health Organization, CHD-CAR, HSO staff met with the Mayor and Sangguniang
Panlungsod for Health for possible amendment of the Anti Smoking Ordinance of Baguio City and
adopt a FCTC (Framework Convention on Tobacco Control) compliant ordinance. In addition,
members of the Smoke-Free Task Force of the City discussed issues and concerns on the
Comprehensive Anti-Smoking Ordinance of Baguio. It was unanimously agreed that amendments be
made on the ordinance based on FCTC recommendation.
As an offshoot activity of the CSC MC 17, 2009 a capability building seminar was conducted
to enhance skills of trainers in the orientation of CSC MC 17, and health effects of smoking. As a
response on the city government, the mayor signed Administrative Order No 28- 2012 (Smoke
Free City Government) This is the response of the City regarding the Race Towards a Smoke-Free
Civil Service call of the CSC based on CSC MC 17, 2009. A Committee was organized to implement
the memorandum and to declare city hall as 100%. There were also campaigns done on Smoke-Free
Environment e.g. Smoke free campus, smoke free workplace (City hall), smoke-free bus terminals,
and smoke free police stations.

Renal Diseases
Diabetes Mellitus and Hypertension are the 2 most common causes of Chronic Renal Failure
at the present time and also rank as the number 5 and number 2 causes of deaths in Baguio City,
respectively. However, these diseases are preventable if diagnosis is made early in the course of the
illness.
In collaboration with the DepEd, dipstick urine screening was done in 14 public elementary
schools in Baguio City. A total of 700 students were examined, with 190 students turning out
positive in the screening. These were subjected to further urine analysis. Of these, 33 were
diagnosed with Urinary tract infection while 1 was diagnosed as having Acute Glomerulonephritis
(AGN) with nephrolithiasis. All students who turned out positive were managed with antibiotics –
Co-trimoxazole for 1 week and were advised to undergo repeat urinalysis post medication. The
student diagnosed with AGN & Nephrolithiasis was to be referred to the hospital but did appear for
follow up, but was given antibiotics after a week through the nurse- in-charge of their school.
l.
Environmental Health and Sanitation
At the end of the fiscal year of 2012, there are still about 2599 (3.73%) households using
Level I or the point source water supply. Likewise, it is established that there is an increase of
households that use the Level II or the improved type of Level I source from 6232 to 14392. Out of
this percentage about 3% resort to boiling for the fear of having water related diseases like
diarrhea and cholera. Furthermore, there are about 51549 (74.07%) households that have pipedsystem water source (Level III). Baguio Water District expanded its piped system generally in Irisan
but it is estimated that only about 50% of the total households are connected to the system. Irisan
has more than 8400 households. The rest of the households in Baguio City which is about 1.52 %
simply depend on rainwater and water deliveries. This is a requirement under P.D. 856 otherwise
known as the Sanitation Code of the Philippines.
On the excreta and sewage disposal sanitation program, about 68,889 households or
98.99% have sanitary toilet facilities. The rest of the households may be discharging their wastes
with human excreta directly to a body of water or are using the traditional pit privy known as the
squat type latrine.
In food sanitation aspect, there were 7316 food related establishments inspected and out of
this number, there were 91 % found having sanitary permits. This figure is higher by 2% than last
year. However, out of the 11943 food handlers inspected only 10580 or 89% have updated health
certificates.
All salt samples tested in 2010 and in 2011 for iodine content are 100% positive but this
decreased to 97% in 2012. This maybe because the iodine content of the salt has evaporated or
dissipated at the time of testing.

Blood Program
The Baguio City Local Blood Council came into being last August23, 2011 under the R.A.
7719, known as the National Voluntary Blood Services Program mandating all sectors to mobilize in
reciprocating a mechanism for voluntary and non-profit collection of blood. The Department of
Health in January 7, 2010, prescribed the necessary policies & guidelines pertinent to the
establishment & operation of local blood councils to support the implementation of RA 7719 for
blood safety & adequacy, quality care & patient safety. It has been functioning as a council since its
conception up to the present.
There were 8 blood typing/bloodletting activities done in 2012 at various settings –
community, health facility, schools. A total of 230 individuals were blood typed and 120 donated
blood.

Radiologic Service
In 2012, the X-Ray Unit was able to serve 18,056 (slightly lower than in 2011) clients for
their radiographic requirements. Majority (97%) were paying clients, 1.32% availed of the service
at a discounted price and 1.69% were provided free services. Radiography was sought by clients as
requirement for work, for medical clearance, for diagnostic aid and for other purposes.
There were radiologic findings in 3.5% (lower than that of 2011, 4.18%) of the total clients
who underwent radiographic procedure of which PTB was the most common finding (48.9%).
These cases were referred for sputum examination and to the TBDC for further evaluation and
management. The other findings were pneumonitis (11.99%), cardiomegaly (10.88%), PPKI (3%),
scoliosis (5.8%) and others (19.4%) which include foreign bodies and other anatomic
abnormalities. All these cases were managed accordingly.

Health Regulation – National health laws continue to be enforced at the local level but needs
to be strengthened with the participation of other stakeholders. Strong will and uniform
implementation of these laws should be done in all levels. These include the Sanitation Code of the
Phil., Milk Code, and ASIN Law. Anti-Rabies Act of 2007, among others. The Sangguniang
Panlungsod and the Local Health Board have always been supportive in the form of resolutions and
ordinances in support of the programs and other activities of the HSO.
All the projected indigent families in the City of Baguio were enrolled under the National
Health Insurance Program through the Sponsored Program to promote financial risk protection for
the poor and enable them to access health services.
Provision of health facilities is not just limited to the LGU resources. The Botika ng Barangay
(BnB) is established to expand access to cheaper medicines.

Overall Health Strategy and Specific Interventions Proposed
v.1
Inter-sectoral cooperation and social determinants
The City recognizes the need for an inter-sectoral cooperation in the planning and
implementation of health programs. This inter-sectoral cooperation should happen in all levels. The
preparation of the barangay and center health plans should be inter-sectoral. The Panshishinawat,
the inter-sectoral body formally organized in 2010 provides the venue for this inter-sectoral
cooperation is expected to permeate in all levels of program planning and implementation.
The City-wide Investment Plan for Health (CIPH) is an instrument to attain the following
health sector goals for better health outcomes, be more equitable financing and improved health
systems. In order to attain these goals, intermediate objectives and reform objectives have to be
met. These intermediate and reform objectives are the outputs of programs and services.
Focusing on the poor considering equity issues and focusing on low performing indicators
are underlying considerations in the actual prioritization of programs and activities at in the
different health centers. Similarly at the city level, these same considerations are will be used in
providing city wide interventions and support to health centers.

v.5 Timetable
The City-wide Investment Plan for Health (CIPH) is a five year plan to be implemented from
2012 to 2016. Upon the approval of the CIPH by the DOH and the Joint Appraisal Committee the
City Government and the Department of Health (DOH) will sign a Memorandum of Agreement to
formally agree on the commitment of each party for the advancement of health for the City of
Baguio. This is expected to happen in the last quarter of 2011. For every year of implementation,
the city will prepare an annual operational plan. The Annual operational plan should be prepared
and approved by DOH and the JAC before the end of the preceding year. The 2012 Annual
Operational Plan (AOP) is expected to get approved together with the CIPH before end of the 2011.
The SLA is a companion document of the AOP that also needs to be prepared annually.
Of the total investment of P 1,705,500,917, P 327,948,173 or 19% is programmed year
one, 20% or P 346,324,924 is programmed for year two, 22% or P 375,418,162 for year three,
18% or 298,538,904 for year four and 22% or 351,651,363 will be used for year five. The

and Private schools with 0.65 percent growth rate, in the last five years.
The increasing cost of education especially in the private schools whose operational
expenses depend solely on tuition fees is one of the reasons of the above indicated dip in enrolment.

percent positive as shown in the table above.

Performance Indicators
Providing quality education in the huge number of students enrolled in the city is a major
thrust by the Local Government. While tables below indicates a declining trend in the performance
based on standard indicators both in the elementary and secondary levels, Baguio City maintained
its stature as the “Educational Center of the North” and continuously exploring interventions on
how address these hindrances. Contributory for these setbacks are (1) Failure to enrol within 6
years age requirement in grade one, (2) students who stopped going to school for several years, i.e.
a 14 year-old student still in grade 4, (3) that a number of newly born children are not residents of
the city, that after birth are being brought back in their own provinces by their parents.

Data Source: Commission on Higher Education-CAR
Medical and Allied courses produce the highest graduates with 31.36 percent followed by
the Business Administration and Related courses with 29.28 percent and 9.42 percent for
Education and Teacher Training and 9.38 percent with Engineering and Technology for SY 20112012.
Graduates’ remarkable performances in board examinations particularly in, medicine and
other allied medical, engineering, law; courses need to be sustained through provision of quality
facilities and facilities and services for learners and educators. They share the distinction of being
placers in national professional regulatory examinations.
Based on the socio-economic studies, majority of the tertiary institutions in the City have
already attained their maximum capacities as to the number of students that can be accommodated.
Almost all classrooms especially those courses with high enrolment change were packed with fifty
(50) or more students per class. The recent trend of acquiring computer equipments, as addition
classroom aides will further lessen their capacity. Most schools have already maximized their
physical developments or expansions would aggravate present congested situations. This provides
them with the option to expand outside of the Central Business district or possibly to areas of the
City to accommodate further increases of enrolment. An example for this is the expansion of a
school facility by Saint Louis University at Bakakeng Norte, Baguio City.
Contribution by the private sector to the development of tertiary education has been an
advantage to the City, both socially and economically. Maintaining the present quality of education
means parallel support in terms of facilities, manpower and urban services that include provisions
of convenient student’s dormitory that would provide good environment conducive for study. Study
showed that for every resident student are three (3) transient students, needing the same services

Non-formal education and manpower development is a national strategy to develop and
enhance people empowerment. The aim is to transform the marginal population, especially those in
inaccessible area, into an economically reliant sector and facilitate their integration into the
mainstream of society. Two national agencies are in the forefront of implementing manpower,
skills, livelihood development and trainings in the city. The Department of Education thru the
Division Office is conducting functional literacy and livelihood skills development activities in
different education districts as part of their community extension services.
The Technical Education Services Development Authority (TESDA) on the other hand have
trained a substantial number of out-of-school youths through their various manpower development
programs such as the school based program, community-based program, and the enterprise based
program. Beneficiaries under these programs specially the school-based and the community-based
programs have increase due to the major thrust of these programs which is providing employable
skills and technical know- how to out-of-school youths. These will enhance their chances of
livelihood employment.
g. ALTERNATIVE LEARNING SYSTEM (ALS)
In pursuit of the city’s vision and to achieve the goals of education For All in 2015, The
Alternative Learning System of Baguio City Division has embarked on an aggressive program of
action to combat illiteracy and poverty in the city. To achieve this, a simple philosophy was
formulated—ALS should not only mean the Alternative Learning System but a way of life, a
program to save lives. Thus, ALS: A Life Saver.

recorded an average of 95.97 percent monitoring of livelihood programs. In terms of literacy
programs, the general monitoring rate was recorded at 100 percent. The higher percentage of
monitoring of literacy programs can be attributed to the fact that this in inherent in the duties and
responsibilities of the members of the team thus their regular conduct of the evaluation.

Women adult members have no livelihood skills or with livelihood skills but no certification
from TESDA or similar institutions.
Women’s income and employment is perceived as contributions/secondary and supplementary
to that of their husbands. These low wages may be interpreted that women cannot be
economically independent as individuals nor can their income meet family needs. Hence they
have to depend on their husbands earnings.
They became irregular members of associations, savings and loans, cooperatives, SSS or similar
insurances.
There are incidents/ prevalence of violence against women and their children like physical,
sexual, psychological and economic abuse/violence.
On self-care of women, sometimes neglectful because of financial constraint leading to poor
health of women or other family members which is an indicator that low socio-economic level
of living exists.
Women spend a lot of their time on work related to household and that they are neglecting an
important aspect of improving their self-esteem thus lacks decision making. Critical decisions in
the family are generally made by the husbands while women take charge of children’s activities,
and household chores.

HOUSING
Housing development is a responsibility of the Local Government Units (LGUs) as provided
for by the Local Government Code of 1991 (RA 7160) and the Urban Development and Housing Act
of 1992 (RA 7279). Housing for the underprivileged sector is a major concern for the City
Government. Considering the limited resources of the City, the participation of the private sector is
encouraged.
a.
a.1
HOUSING PROBLEMS/ISSUES
Lack of alienable and disposable land for housing purposes.
Areas covered by Presidential Proclamation reserving portions of the city for various uses
such as forest, military, institutional, parks, industrial, agricultural, and other uses as identified by
the city and the different barangays is almost 2,332 hectares.
As a consequence, encroachment within government reservations and building in
environmentally critical areas are prevalent.
a.2
Poor implementation of Sec. 18 and Sec. 29 of R.A. 7279
Sec. 18 of R.A. 7279 which requires subdivision developers to support the balanced housing
development program is an effort to address the problem of housing for the poor. However, these
projects are not benefiting the intended beneficiaries. Section 29 of RA 7279 mandates the LGUs to
relocate and provide resettlement areas for the affected persons living in dangerous areas.
a.3
Inadequate housing for transient students/workers
One of the more progressive industries under the Services Sector is Real Estate and Renting
activities. Due to the very high demand for housing, some existing residential houses are utilized as
quarters for students/workers and often times are overcrowded.
a.4
Encroachment of Settlers within reservations
With the influx of individuals within the city, part of the forest and watershed reservations
are encroached upon by the informal settlers.

Private Investments would refer to capital infused by the businessmen in operating their
economic activities in the City. Investments increased by 41.56 percent from 614,185,481.05 in
2011 and 358,897,848.38 in 2010. Contributory to this increase of 41.56 percent is the Real Estate
Lessor followed by Retailers and Services. The increasing trend of Hotels, Motels, Inns,
Pension/Lodgings, because of the number of residential homes being utilized as alternative
transient facilities for visitors.
2.
The City as a Prime Educational Center
The City is a home to a significant number of students coming from neighboring Cordillera
provinces as well as from other north Luzon provinces. The student population in higher
educational institutions located in the city totals 64,752 in SY2012-2013 from 66,313 in SY20112012. Of the 33 public and private HEIs in the region, 14 are located in Baguio City. The continuing
influx of students to the City as well as the increasing number of HEIs locating in the City only attest
to the City’s stature as an educational center in North Luzon. (City to grab this opportunity given
the immense multiplier effects of educational services and education-allied businesses to the City’s
economy)
3.
Emerging Role of the City as a Financial Center
Savings and investments play a very vital role in the City’s economy because these are
necessary conditions for capital formation, which makes the economic system efficient or
productive.
Currently, there are 201 banks and other financial institutions located in the City from only
14 such establishments in 1995. This impressive growth of financial establishments in the City
presents a challenge for the City to be a financial center, not only in the Cordillera Region but in
North Luzon as well. There are 62 banks currently operating in the city. These financial institutions
act as intermediaries between the depositors and the borrowers. Savings of the depositors are
being used up in terms of loans, which will in turn be invested by the borrowers. Loans granted by
banks are of several types depending upon the function of the bank.
Aside from banks, there are other lending institutions available to businessmen such as
credit establishments, credit cooperatives and individual lenders. Some government agencies are
also advocating on the formation of capital by providing the seed money and supervising the use of
such.
4.
The City’s Industrial Base
Baguio is also home to one of the country’s most profitable Philippine Economic Zone
Authority areas (PEZA), called the Baguio City Economic Zone (BCEZ), located in the southern part
of the city between the Camp John Hay leisure resort and the Philippine Military Academy and
caters to twenty three (23) locators. Notable firms include Texas Instruments Philippines, Inc. a
leading producer of semi-conductor parts and accessories in the world market, MOOG, producer of
parts for aircrafts and Sitel for call centers. Also, production output in the BCEZ accounts for the
bulk of the Cordillera Region’s total exports.

The combined total exports for the past year amounted to $ 4.159B. Non-PEZA exports
shared 45.27 percent and the remaining 54.73 percent were for PEZA exports.
PEZA exports recorded a decrease of 7.99 percent or $2.276B compared to the previous
year. The Machinery except Electrical sector continuous to have the lion’s share in the value of its
export products pegged at $ 168M for the period. This is explained by the global recession of the
companies located at the economic zone. IT Companies exported a total of $ 58.064M or 43.38
percent higher than last year, and wearing apparel exports also decreased by (9.77) percent or a
total value of $10.148M.
Non-PEZA exports posted an increase of 14.00 percent. This was attributed to the conduct
of market matching and trade fairs focused on product design and quality control. Top exports
identified were wood products, silver crafts and the traditional native cloths or apparels.
The intent is to generate job and ensure the City’s liability over time through the continued
and expanded contribution of resource-based enterprises and knowledge-based industries. This
includes the growth of more SMEs where barriers to the movement of goods and services are
reduced or eliminated by advances in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and
eventually drive them to transact businesses electronically to gain information and compete for
market access.
The City has started to attract industry operators engaged in business process outsourcing
(BPO) activities, in particular, contact centers at the Baguio Ecozone. We have some of them
currently operating and more are expected to come in and tap city’s cool climate which figures
prominently in downscaling power utility costs and its vast pool of young, highly trained Englishspeaking and ethical work force. The Department of Trade Industry (DTI) has included Baguio City
among suitable sites for call center operations as well as other IT-services nationwide.

TOURISM
Undoubtedly, Baguio City remains a prime tourist destination area in North Luzon. The City
has accounted 65.44 percent of tourist arrivals to the Cordillera Region since the region’s
inception. Baguio City is also the gateway to other tourist destinations in the North. Almost
always, tourists either come to the City only or pass through on their way to other places in the
Cordillera. This highlights the strategic role that Baguio City plays in the region’s tourism industry.
The cool climate and fresh green and peaceful environment, not elsewhere found in other
tourist destinations in the Philippines and of which the city is noted for, makes it a favorite
destination especially for those who would like to relax and stay away from the excessive heat of
the lowlands. This is the strongest selling point of the city that makes it also the favorite venue of
seminars and conferences.
Aside from its climate and green environment, the City also boasts of tourist attractions
which include historical landmarks, cultural, natural (health and wellness), religious (history and
culture), man-made, business/commercial and customs and traditions (Table 93). Parks and
gardens also abound in the City as shown in the Tourist Map (Figure 12). Most of these are
developed and maintained by the City Government. The City also hosts events and festivals that
continue to attract visitors to the City, most notably the annual Flower Festival or Panagbenga that
is celebrated in February featuring the blooming of flowers. In support to this festival, which is a
private sector undertaking spearheaded by the Baguio Flower Festival Foundation, Inc. (BFFFI),
the Department of Tourism-CAR spearheaded the coordination of provincial participation in the
Street Dancing Parade. Highlights of Panagbenga 2012, namely: Grand Street Dance Parade and the
Grand Float Parade, respectively. The inauguration of the Rose Garden in Burnham Park has
likewise attended by the two (2) officials last February 26, 2012.

The lion's head along Kennon Road
is the undisputed landmark that is
synonymous to Baguio City. The 40foot high lion head, located a few
kilometers from the Kennon Road
view deck, was carved by a
Cordillera artist from a limestone
boulder.
The Mansion is the official summer
residence of the President of the
Philippines. It is located on the
eastern part of the city along C.P.
Romulo Drive (formerly a part of
Leonard Wood Road) and right
across from Wright Park. The
Mansion once served as the seat of
the Second Session of Economic
Commission of Asia and the Far
East in 1947. It has also been the
site of the first meeting of the South
East Asia Union which was
popularly known as the Baguio
Conference of 1950, conceived and
convened by Philippine President
Elpidio Quirino.
This marks the site of the building
where the members of the
Philippine Commission met from
April 22 to June 11, 1904 and
officially initiated the use of Baguio
as the Philippine Summer Capital.
The Baden Powell Hall was where
the sessions were held.

Baguio City remains a prime tourist destination area in North Luzon. It is also the gateway
to other tourist destinations in the North.
Tourist arrivals in 2012 were 671,079. This figure reflects a 10.46 percent increase on the
figure posted in 2011. Tourist receipts had a total of Php 4,194,243,750.00. There are 113 hotels,
inns and lodging houses operating in the City with 4,288 rentable rooms. Prices range from
Php500.00 to as high as Php4,000.00.
Around 4,288 lettable rooms were also available in the City in the same year. There is an
increase by 603 rooms compared to 3,685 in 2011, due to the construction of new hotels and
establishments. This figure does not include the lettable rooms of residential houses catering to
visitors/transients that are not being accounted for in the statistics of tourist facilities.
There are a total of 113 tourist accommodation facilities in the city as of 2012. Most of
these are classified as Resort (2), Tourist Inn (4), Apartel (1), Pension House (3). The others fall
under the category of Hotel, Lodge, Special Interest Resort and Motel.
Of the City’s 113 accommodation facilities, only 23 are accredited by the Department of
Tourism Regional Office. There is a need to encourage accommodation establishments to register
for accreditation in order to comply with tourism standards.
The City has convention facilities such as Baguio Convention Center, CAP John Hay, Baguio
Country Club and Teachers Camp. Function halls and rooms are now found in almost all tourist
accommodation establishments. With this added feature, business for such establishments is
seemingly better. The common practice is packaging of services where food, convention
equipments and lodging and other required services like transportation and guided tours around
the city are part of the package, thus making it convenient for convention organizers.
Tourists coming to the City consist of Filipinos (domestic and "balikbayans") and foreigners.
Over the past years, Filipinos dominated the tourist’s population. The BLISTT Project also showed
that the picture would continue to be such until the year 2020.
Another group of visitors coming to the city are participants/delegates to international and
domestic conferences, conventions, meetings and seminars held in hotel facilities, convention
centers and other venues.
The city’s natural ambiance remains an integral and indispensable pull factor for local and
foreign visitors. Statistics reveal that domestic tourists still outnumber foreigners and balikbayans
coming up to Baguio.
Prior to the implementation of the 1991 Local Government Code (R.A. 7160), development
of the tourism industry was a national responsibility, particularly of the Department of Tourism.
This is now vested with the local government and as such, it takes charge of tourism promotion, the
construction, maintenance and operation of facilities and other tourist attractions, including
acquisition of equipment, regulations and supervision of business concessions, and security
Volume 3 – The SECTORAL STUDIES
Page 98
services for such facilities (Rule V, Article 25). This is in addition to the licensing of tourist
establishments done even prior to the effectivity of R.A. 7160.
The City Tourism Council, which is a very active partner of the City in the tourism sector,
has been organized. The City has Tourism Code, which incorporates guidelines for the development
of the sector.

The Cordillera’s tourism strength remains to be nature and culture based. Anchored on this
advantage, the Regional Development Plan’s goal is to make the Cordillera a prime eco-tourist
destination making tourism a major regional industry benefiting all sectors and to ensure inclusive
growth.
The year 2012 has been a fruitful year for Cordillera Tourism. Based on the preliminary
final report submitted by the various City/Provincial Tourism Offices and City/Provincial Planning
and Development Offices in some instances relative to the tourist arrivals, we saw the Cordillera in
high momentum with Baguio City’s growth rate of 12% as compared to the 2011 data. This
accounts for the growing number of events/festivals hosted in the city and the increasing number
of “Lakbay Aral” groups, religious retreats and independent travellers. This is good news
considering the sluggish performance in 2010 which noted an 18% decrease in the overall CAR
arrivals. Despite the strong competition paused by other popular destinations of the Philippines,
Volume 3 – The SECTORAL STUDIES
Page 99
Baguio City and the rest of the Cordilleras are gearing up towards the latest tourism trends
capitalizing on its natural and cultural facets.
The positive growth can be attributed to the continuous and collaborative efforts of both
government and private sectors in tourism promotions and development as well as establishing
systems for better monitoring and assessment.
The Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR) received 896,100 arrivals, accounting for
20.97% share of the total visitor volume.

Issues and Challenges
Inadequate funds to further improve tourist sites.
The City continues to maintain and develop tourism sites. Within its immediate jurisdiction
are the maintenance of major parks, street islands and other related tourist facilities. Major park
attractions are Burnham Park, Mines View Park, Wright Park, Botanical Garden and Sunshine Park.
The City maintains a nursery and greenhouse for the propagation of indigenous ornamental plants,
pine trees, fruit trees and other tree varieties that thrive in the City. Parks maintenance is an
integral function of the City Environment and Parks Management Office (CEPMO).
While the City prioritizes the allocation of funds for the development of tourist attraction
sites, it is still inadequate.
b.2.2
Seasonality of tourist arrivals to the City.
The tourism industry in the City flourishes during the first, second and last quarters of each
year. This is mainly due to the concentration of activities during these periods.
b.2.3
Emergence of other tourist destinations.
b.2.4
Insufficient monitoring of tourist arrivals/tourism data.
The monitoring system on tourist arrivals is now with the City Government of Baguio
specifically the City Tourism Office. This is to ensure that all or majority of tourist arrivals including
those in the transient facilities are counted and monitored. It is believed that tourist arrivals would
even be higher compared to what is reflected should all tourist accommodation facilities be obliged
to submit data regularly.

Infrastructure and Physical Development
C.1
Transportation
As a major urban center in the North, there must be a smooth flow of goods and people.
Public transport is relatively convenient with at least sixteen (16) bus companies are operating in
the city. These provide transport services mostly in Metro Manila, Ilocos Region, Cordilleras and
Cagayan Valley to as far as Zambales and Quezon Province. Licensed public utility vehicles that
operate specific intra municipality and intercity routes complement existing bus lines. Within the
city, the usual route is from a specific neighborhood or Barangay to the Central Business District
and vice versa. Out of town destination reach as far as La Trinidad and other adjoining towns of
Itogon, Sablan, Tuba and Tublay all in Benguet.
Minibuses and vans for hire have regular schedules mostly to Pangasinan, La Union and
recently extending to as far as Ilocos and Abra provinces. Taxicabs and rent-a-car companies are
also available. They provide a more convenient mode of transportation within and outside of the
city. They offer various car types and models with competitive rates.
As of year 2012, the City’s road system has a total length of 249.039 kilometers, of which
38.285 percent are classified as national roads and bridges and 61.715 percent are city/barangay
roads.

UTILITIES
c.2.1 POWER/ENERGY
Electricity, which is generated outside the city, is mainly distributed by the Benguet Electric
Cooperative Inc. Power sources for the city comes from Sual and Ambuclao through the National

unutilized cables/wires still attached to the poles.

Policy to minimize installation of several poles in one location such as PLDT, Smart, Digitel and
BENECO poles in one site. Maybe the City could set a policy mandating that only BENECO poles
should be installed in new expansion areas to minimize unnecessary multiple poles in one
tapping location.

The Baguio Water District, a quasi-government entity, administers the water supply system
for the City of Baguio. BWD operates an extensive water production & distribution system
consisting of 60 deep wells but with limited storage facilities. Owing to Baguio’s rugged
topography, water distribution has been technically difficult and expensive.

Environmental Management Plan
One of the most formidable environmental challenges we are facing in the 21st Century is
the rapid deterioration of the natural environment. This loss is mostly felt in urban areas where
concentration of populations is observed. The increasing density and the intensity of urban living
have a major impact on the environment and our use of natural resources. The balance between
people and environment sets out the action necessary to maintain and enhance the variety of life all
around us.
As urbanization continues to take place, the environmental protection and management is
becoming a major public health, socio-economic and environmental concern in urban areas of many
developing countries. The concern is serious, particularly in medium-sized cities like Baguio City
that is often visited by local and foreign tourists. Poor visual ambience, aesthetics and biodiversity
will bring about negative impacts on tourism and education, considered are primary urban
services offered in the City, notwithstanding it further effects in attracting local as well as foreign
investments.
Sustainable Development has stirred global concern and action to save the remaining
natural resources, embodied and translated into a predominant national agenda and supported by
the requisite legislation. While so, environmental protection must be done locally. Local
government must assume the responsibility to raise the environmental consciousness of its
constituents as well as to ensure a richer and cleaner environment that will provide the future
generation.
The Local Government Code of 1991 provides that Local Government Units shall share with
the national government the responsibility in the management and maintenance of ecological
balance within their territorial jurisdiction, subject to the provisions of the code and all national
policies governing environment. The city takes cognizance of its responsibility in environmental
management as a shared undertaking not only with the national government but also with the civil
society. Overall, the LGU plays a bigger role as the lead actor. Since its environment is the major pull
factor for its thriving tourism and other related and other industry related development, the
ecological balance in the city must be improved and sustained.
Despite the environmental challenges, the city is continuously implementing measures to
conserve, protect and rehabilitate the land, air and water of Baguio.

SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT

The City of Baguio continues to provide solid waste management as a basic urban service. It is
carried out by the Solid Waste Management Division of the General Services Office. The SWMD
is composed of 161 warm bodies and divided into four sections.

The City Generates 288-300 Tons Per Day (TPD).

The City collects and hauls out on the average 151-170 TPD.

Collection covers 127 of 128 barangays on a weekly basis. National Highways and the
Institutional areas are served twice a week, while at the Central Business District and the City
Market is done twice a day.

The system of collection is on designated curbsides and Barangay pick-up points.

LIQUID WASTE MANAGEMENT

The City Sewerage System of Baguio is managed by the Wastewater, Water & Ambient Air
Management Division (WAMD) of CEPMO. Its service is focused in the Central Business District
(CBD) and the adjoining Barangays.

It covers a service area of about 65 out of 128 barangays of the city. Management is governed by
the Sanitation Code of the Philippines (PD856), DENR Administrative Orders 34 & 35, the Clean
Water Act (RA 9275), and the Plumbing Code (R.A. 137) , the Building Code (P.D 1096) and
other relevant national laws and local ordinances.

Domestic wastewater collected through the sewage piping network is transported to the Baguio
Sewage Treatment Plant (BSTP) for treatment. In 2012, an average of 10,002 cum/day of
wastewater were received as influent to the BSTP, 16.30% more than the designed capacity of
8,600 cum/day.

Ten (10) barangays are either fully or partially served by nine (9) communal septic or Imhoff
tanks.

Areas outside of the coverage areas of the BSTP or the communal waste water treatment
system utilize onsite individual septic tank for treatment of their domestic sewage.

The City Government continues to bring the system closer to the prospective concessionaires
by installing additional sewer lines and maintenance manholes. It also
rehabilitate/improvement of pre-war sewer lines which are found serviceable and which can be
interconnected to the new sewer network.

FOREST & WATERSHED MANAGEMENT

The urban forest is another critical means of preserving and protecting the natural environment
and, in particular, helping to improve the air quality and supply of water in the city.

Forest reserves have an aggregate area of 240.37 hectares. These are the Forbes Park, Camp 8,
Busol, Buyog, lucnab etc.

Some of these forests covered proclamation are actually built up areas.

For the year 2008-2012 of the total of 114,982 seedlings planted covering an area of 45.98
hectares, 94,285 seedlings with an average survival rate of 82 %. The high mortality rate is
mainly attributed to trampling of a stray animals, wildfire, natural death, erosion, damaged by
children, Park Goers, Vendors and competition from grasses and shrubs.

AMBIENT AIR QUALITY MANAGEMENT

With the rapid increasing population, air quality is compromised. Harmful substances coming
from different sources affect the totality of the environment, includes humankind.

The City’s Ambient Air Quality is monitored by EMB, DENR-CAR. Pollutant gas being measured
by the Continuous Automatic Ambient Air Quality Monitoring System (CAAAQMS) at Plaza
Garden, Lower Session Road, Baguio City are PM-10, Sox, Nox, Co and Ozone. The Annual
Geometric Mean computed was at seventy two (72) Microgram per Cubic Meter (ug/m3). Data
shows that the Air Quality at Central Business District is “Good“ to “Fair” as described in the Air
Quality Indices Annex A of the Implementing Rules and Regulations of the Clean Air Act.

Motor vehicle emissions largely contribute to air pollution. A 6.8% increase of number of
vehicles of CY 2012 compared with CY 2011.

LAND MANAGEMENT

The City of Baguio remains to be a regional growth center in terms of education tourism and
commerce. The consequent rise in population and its varied roles as regional growth center led
to scarcity of land, presence of squatter colonies on private and public lands and increased
mixed urban land use.

Baguio City has population density at 5,543 persons per square kilometer in 2010.

INSTITUTIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN
1.
DEVELOPMENT ADMINISTRATION
Republic Act 7160 or The Local Government Code of 1991(LGC) has transformed the Local
Government Units (LGU) into self-reliant entities and active partners in the attainment of national
goals through a more responsive and accountable local government structure anchored on a system
of decentralization. All these point to a more autonomous LGU that charters and directs its own
development. For the LGU to comply with its mandates effectively, it must have the appropriate
structure, systems and procedures as well as a capable work force supported by adequate fiscal
resources.
The local administration sector’s scope thus includes local governance and fiscal
administration. Under local governance, it analyses the following: 1) organizational structure
which conveys the basic services and defines the functions of the different offices as essential to
the promotion of the general welfare; 2) personnel administration which seeks to promote a
capable human resource that supports career development; 3) participatory governance which
adheres to a participatory development process; 4) development communication which advocates
for a transparent implementation of government programs and projects; 5) public safety and
protection management which ensures everybody’s safety in a peaceful and orderly City. Under
fiscal management, it analyses the City’s income and expenditure that demand for a transparent
and effective collection of tax revenue and economical expenditure.
a.
Local Governance
In providing for a meaningful local autonomy, the LGUs are empowered to be more
responsive and accountable in their respective local governance. This includes a responsive
organizational structure, effective and efficient personnel, adherence to participatory development
process, use of modern technology, and transparent development communication.
b.
Barangay Composition
Baguio City has a total of 129 barangays. In terms of population based on the 2010 National
Census of Population and Housing, Rizal Monument Area is the smallest with 68 inhabitants while
Irisan Barangay is the largest with 28,357. In terms of land area, Upper Market Subdivision is the
smallest with 0.24 hectares while Irisan is the biggest with 669.62.
c.
Baguio City’s Organizational Structure
Sec. 76 of the LGC, generally provides the basis for the LGU in designing and implementing
its organizational structure and staffing pattern based on the following: 1) service requirements; 2)
financial capability; 3) standards and guidelines prescribed by the Civil Service Commission (CSC).
Moreover, Sec. 17, LGC, enumerates the basic services and facilities of a city. The corresponding
needed offices are also enumerated and categorized as mandatory and optional. The mandatory
offices are to be filled in order to ensure the delivery of basic public services. At least there are 14
mandatory offices enumerated by the LGC. The optional offices are dependent on the actual service
needs of the city. Nevertheless, the mandatory offices should be understood as directory and not as
mandatory perse. That is, the City’s organizational structure should not only be limited to the
enumerated offices but it can even create offices, which are essential to the promotion of public
welfare (Sec. 16, 17, LGC). This also implies that the LGU can also collapse positions, which deem
not necessary.
The present City’s organizational structure comprises the Executive and Legislative
Branches, which are under the direction and supervision of the Mayor and the Vice Mayor,
Volume 3 – The SECTORAL STUDIES
Page 128
respectively. There are 12 departments, which are the implementing offices, viz., City Mayor’s
Office, Administration Office, Buildings and Architecture Office, City Environment and Parks
Management Office, Civil Registry Office, Treasury Office, Engineering Office, Health Services Office,
Veterinary Office, Social Welfare and Development Office, General Services Office, Assessor’s Office,
and 6 support staff-departments, viz., Sangguniang Panlungsod, Planning and Development Office,
Accounting Office, Budget Office, Legal Office, Human Resource Management Office, with a total of
18 departments. (See Organizational Chart).
Each of these departments has their own goals and objectives in relation with the City’s
vision-mission aligned with the overall regional and National Development goal.

only the filled positions but also the casual employees. The summary of the City Personnel
Complement shows an average of 195 or 14% vacant positions over the period under study. The

collapsing of vacant positions for the creation of appropriate positions, and the processes of
recruitment, selection and appointment process.

Human Resource Development
Officials and employees of the government, being the frontline workers, are the most valued
resources that can be developed and tapped in the delivery of basic public service. Training
programs surely enhance the competence, morale, and performance of employees.
Human Resource Development is one of the thrusts of the Human Resource Management
Office (HRMO). The HRMO coordinates with the Civil Service Commission – CAR in the conduct of
seminar/trainings for the employees of the City Government of Baguio.

DEVELOPMENT FINANCE AND FISCAL MANAGEMENT
a.
OVERVIEW
The enactment of the Local Government Code of 1991 gave the local government units
opportunities to exercise autonomy in local governance to attain greater empowerment and fast
track development. Integrated with it is the role of the LGU in local development planning and
investment programming to achieve stability in resource allocation and addressing actual
development needs represented as programs and projects.
The Local Government of Baguio primarily depends on its tax collections, other fees, share
from the national taxes and its economic enterprises to manage and support its development.
Sustainability of an urban center requires a lot of fiscal resources; demand for basic services
continuously increases as against its resources.
b.
CITY INCOME
Income generation by the City comes tax and non-tax revenues and the Internal Revenue
Allotment (IRA) coming from the national government. Over the Five year period as reflected in the
table below, the city income increased by an average 5% annually. The highest increase in the
budget was in 2011 which amounted to Php 97,154,331.58.

basis.

PUBLIC SAFETY AND PROTECTION
The maintenance of a generally peaceful situation in the city is credited to the intensified
efforts of the police force and the vigilance of the community in resolving crimes in the city. The
introduction of the Community based Policing System at the barangay level proved to be successful
in encouraging community assistance and participation in the control and prevention of crimes.
This is complemented by sustained high police visibility in critical areas.

Active Lupons in the barangays play a key role in reporting and resolving cases at the
community level. Despite the aggressive campaign to institutionalize lupon as a Barangay
mechanism to resolve issues at the community level. Out of the 128 barangays in the city, only
58 barangays are reporting the status of lupon cases in their community, much is still to be
done in order to achieve a greater participation of the Lupon Tagapamayapa in the City.

FIRE PROTECTION
The safety of the community is the primary concern of the Baguio City fire Department
against destructive fires and other related emergencies. The delivery of services is hampered by
various factors which are the perennial problem of the city. It is a clamor of the residence that
whenever they call for help, the responders arrive late. Thus, providing on the spot responders
could lessen the time constrain of very response. Likewise, continuous awareness of the public on
safety must be encouraged not only in the barangay level but down to the household.

51 fire incidences that occurred in the city during the period of 2012. A decrease in 17.74
percent compared to 62 fire incidences recorded in 2011. The majority cause of fire incidences
in the City come up from structural, forest and vehicular fires place second and third
respectively. Structural fire damaged was placed at 30 incidences and the estimated fire
damages were placed at Php 4,672,150.00.

The community based approach to fire prevention and control was further strengthened
through the conduct of fire drills, inspection of business establishments/buildings and review
of building plans to assess consistency with the Fire Code and the intensified training of
volunteers and Barangay Officials. As well as fire personnel capacity development for more
efficient fire prevention and management.

In line with the continuing effort to get in touch with the community, the Fire Station has
organized lectures orientation/seminars on fire prevention in addition to 58 fire and
disaster/rescue drills were also conducted with different sectors in the city who actively
participated in this undertaking.

In implementing the Fire Code, the station was able to generate Php 1,759,428.00 Fire Code
Fees that were collected that adds to the income to the City.

Resolution of cases filed at the City Prosecutors Office remains high at an average rate of
98% for the past five years, it is significant that majority of the cases were acted upon appropriately
despite that the City Prosecutors Office is undermanned due to retirements and promotions of
some City Prosecutors to higher key positions in the judiciary. The judicious settlement and
disposition of these cases is aspired and ensured that the speedy delivery of justice is served to all
parties concerned.
