FROM THE MAYOR

JOHN G. BONGATCity Mayor

In the past years, Naga’s economy has been bullish. New investments are coming in. New windows of opportunities are opening. In spite of this good news, however, ensuring the city’s growth is translated in uplifting every Nagueños quality of life is our primary concern.

Our efforts for a transparent and accountable government are our means to ensure a sustainable, inclusive, and people-centered development. By disclosing all executive issuances and legislative measures of the city government in this Naga City Gazette, the city government seeks not only to inform you, our beloved Nagueños, of our actions, but more importantly to invite you to engage with us.

On the last pages of this journal, the contact numbers of all the departments under the city government structure are published fir your perusal. Your city government is just a call away. Avail the privileges contained in our city ordinances, participate in our programs, or comment and give us feedback on how to further improve government systems and mechanisms.

Let us all H²ELP our CiTy become a happy and beautiful place to live in. Let us make Naga Smile to the World.

FROM THE VICE MAYOR

Empowered, responsible and productive citizens are the foundations of a progressive city. It is in this view that the City Government of Naga has been incessantly exploring means to engage the people, enhance their proficiencies and, consequently, uplift their quality of life.

The executive issuances and legislative measures contained in this Gazette seek to equip our people with the necessary competencies and means for meaningful participation. In particular, Ordinance No. 2015-012, otherwise known as the Education Code of Naga City, provides comprehensive programs in developing our city’s most important resource – the Nagueňos. From pre-school to tertiary, even for out-of-school, there are interventions aimed at improving the quality of education in Naga, as well as its accessibility, especially for the marginalized.

Good governance is not only a function of an open, transparent government, but more so of a participative, proactive citizenry. Education is a key in opening up opportunities, as well as a tool for empowering every single Nagueňo as development partners.

Edukasyon an solusyon. Through breakthrough recommendations and sustained involvement of the private sector in the city’s governance, we will be assured of continuous innovation in the city’s systems and processes. By making the best better for our Maogmang Lugar, we can reach new heights that are at par, or even beyond, other global cities. Naga will surely smile to the world.

Miranda Award (Mayoral Distinguished Award, the city’s highest award); Leon SA. Aureus Award; Jesse M. Robredo Youth Award; Lt. Delfin C. Rosales Award, and; Mayoral Recognition Award with their respective sets of qualifications and criteria;

Whereas, the same Executive Order No. 2014-005, with its amendatory provisions, still stands and remains in force;Whereas, it is noted that selection of outstanding citizens deserving of recognition is limited by established rules that require, among others, that prospective awardees should be nominated first by independent individual or group in order to be considered for any of the five awards above-enumerated.Whereas, there are other civic-minded Nagueños who deserve commendation and/or recognition but unfortunately, for personal or other reason, have opted not to be nominated or come out in the open, thus foregoing the chance to honor their outstanding deeds or accomplishments worth emulating by their fellow citizens.

Whereas, such individuals or groups nevertheless deserve to recognized for their outstanding acts and achievements through their voluntary acts and sense of civic duty, charity, support and cooperation that in one way or another contributed to the economic progress and development thrusts of the city in general, and the Nagueno constituency in particular.

Now, therefore, I, JOHN G. BONGAT, Mayor of the City of Naga, by virtue of the powers vested in me by law, do hereby order that the following Sections 5, 6, 7 and 8 be added/incorporated to the original provisions of Executive Order No. 2014-005, to read, as follows:

“Section 6. Selection of awardees as described in the preceding section of this EO shall be done outside of the original selection process as mandated in the original EO, where separate rules and regulations shall be instituted by the Awards Committee for the purpose, subject to approval by the Office of the City Mayor.

“Section 7. This special community recognition award shall bear its own name and title, with appropriate plaque and/or medals, to be recommended by the Awards Committee for approval and final conferment by the Office of the City Mayor.

“Section 8. This special community recognition award shall be conferred effective this year, particularly during the celebration of the 2015 Naga City Charter Anniversary.”

EXPLANATORY NOTE

The 1987 Constitution of the Republic of the Philippines clearly provides that it is the obligation of the State to protect and promote the right of all citizens to quality education at all levels, and to take appropriate steps to make such education accessible to all. Quality and accessible education, therefore, is among the key social services that the government should provide its constituencies.

In consonance with the aforementioned provision of the Constitution and in view of the H2ELP your CiTy agenda of the present administration, the City Government of Naga has put premium on pushing for a more effective and more responsive educational system in the city. Various policies and programs have been conceived and established to promote quality and accessible education in Naga.

These initiatives of the city government, however, should be well organized and properly harmonized to ensure that they bring forth their maximum benefit to society. A comprehensive code for education also serves as an easy reference for the

public, enhancing their awareness and knowledge on the city’s numerous programs and laws on education, improving their availment of the same, and, consequently, developing further the city’s human resources for the attainment of sustainable and inclusive economic growth. Given this:

WHEREAS, the Republic Act No. 7279, otherwise known as the “Urban Development and Housing Act of 1992” mandates all local government units to undertake, in cooperation with the private sector, a comprehensive and continuing Urban and Development and Housing Program.

WHEREAS, in the performance of its function as policy formulation and recommendation, the NCUDHB passed Resolution No. 2015-03 recommending to the City Government of Naga to temporarily stop the acceptance of new beneficiary applications to the Kaantabay sa Kauswagan Program in order to ensure that the pending applications will be given priority in the resettlement sites that shall become available and to prevent creating new expectations of benefit under the Program;

WHEREAS, in view of the fact that there are certain urgent circumstances where the intervention of the City Government of Naga in the form of housing or settlement assistance becomes necessary, such as in the case of natural calamities or court-ordered demolition, there is a need to declare these circumstances as not covered by the moratorium herein being recommended;

WHEREAS, finding merit in the said Resolution No. 2014-005 of the NCUDHB, and in order to better implement the same, there is a need for the Sangguniang Panlungsod to approve and adopt the said Resolution.

IN PURSUANCE OF THE ACCOUNTABILITY and transparency thrust of the city government which is a primordial element in making intelligent decisons not only among policymakers, but more so among the constituents and other stakeholders who are after all the reason for Naga’s existence, City Mayor John G. Bongat ordered the publication of the city’s official gazette which shall henceforth serve as the journal of the city goverment.

As such, the Naga City Official Gazette will publish (1) all important LEGISLATIVE acts and resolutions of the Sangguniang Panlungsod which are public in nature; (2) all executive and administrative orders and proclamations, except those having no general applicability; (3) such documents or classes of documents as may be required so to published by law; and (4) such documents or classes of documents as the City Mayor of the Sanggunian shall determine from time to time to have general applicability and legal effect, or which they may authorize so to published.

Additionally, official reports, researches, paper presentations, including copies of privilege speeches and official communication and correspondence, as may be deemed urgent for the public to know, may also be given space. The furtherance of transparency, accountability and unrestrained public debate and discussion as hallmarks of good governance and true democracy will be the primary goal of this publication.

“Gazette” comes from the word gazetta, a Venetian coin used to buy early Italian newspapers. The word later on was loaned into English to describe a newspaper.

In came to be used for an official goverment paper with the creation of the London Gazette, first published in 1665 under the title of The Oxford Gazette.

In the Philippines, the Official Gazette first appeared on August 23, 1898, ten days after the Battle of Manila when the Spanish surrendered to the Americans. Since then, it became an American era periodical. Today, the Gazette is traditionally referred to as the official organ of the Philippine government.

Naga City, for its part, is once more breaking through a new era where new city administration promises to make good governance even better.
