Local Development and Planning


History
The Local Government code of 1991 (R.A. 7160) provided the mechanism for
decentralization and local autonomy.
The law was conceived for the following goals:
- Develop a self-reliant and vibrant communities
- Broaden the powers and authority of the Local Governments Units
(LGU's)
- Speed up development of the countryside
To address these problems, the Department of Interior and Local Government
(DILG) has developed a so called INTEGRATED CAPABILITY BUILDING
PROGRAM (ICBP). It has five core components:
- Management Systems
- Development Planning
- Local Legislation
- Local Financial Management
- Community Mobilization
Objectives of the Study of Development Planning:
- Learn the history and definition of Development Planning
- Learn the legal basis for Local Development Planning
- Identify the organizations directly responsible in Local Development
Planning
Definition of Development Planning
- It is one of the core components of the ICBP to serve as an effective
delivery tool and a strategy to provide direction for physical
development and accelerating economic growth
- It aims to capture the aspirations and desire of the citizenry on the
type and level of development they want to attain at a certain time
Purposes of Development Planning
- To optimize the use of resources at the right time without sacrificing
the environment
- To provide direction in the execution of development programs/projects
- To solicit and ensure citizens participation in decision making
concerning social and economic development
- To respond to the requirements of the Local Government Code
Process of Development Planning
- Development planning involves:
o Gathering and processing of data about the community
o Determining and prioritizing the needs and problems to be
addressed
o Identifying development opportunities which can be harnessed
towards the realization of a better quality of life
Major Features of ICBP
- The ICBP assures:
o Maximum LGU participation
o Its outputs are specific
o Sustainability at every level of the LGU
- It is demand driven which means it is designed to respond, as much as
possible to the specific needs of the partner Local Governments
- ICBP is premised on the fundamental notion that the Local
Governments are the center of all Local Development activities
- The ICBP is designed with the principle that
o The LGUs are the primary actors of the program with the DILG
serving as facilitator, thus, the success of the program rests
heavily on the degree of commitment and participation of the
LGUs.
The Main Feature of the ICBP
- It is hands on
- Onsite
- Output oriented
