Weekly Recap | February 23–27, 2026

Here’s a look back at some of the key activities undertaken during the week of February 23–27, 2026, as the office continued its efforts to support barangays and strengthen local governance.

The week included coordination with the Liga ng mga Barangay in Brgy. Cabadiangan, the provision of technical assistance to former barangay officials regarding eligibility requirements, and the monitoring of Gender and Development Plan and Budget (GPB) submissions in preparation for the Women’s Month celebration.

The office also complied with the property inventory conducted by the Regional Office, which involved the verification of equipment issued by the Department to ensure proper documentation, accountability, and management of government assets.

A validation was likewise carried out in coordination with the City Assessor’s Office and the City Environment and Natural Resources Office to verify site conditions and relevant records concerning a lot in Barangay Nauhang.

In addition, the office interfaced with DILG NIR Regional Director Lailyn Ortiz, CESO IV and Regional Legal Officer Atty. Neil Yanson at the DILG NIR Regional Office in Bacolod City to strengthen coordination on governance and legal matters.

Through these engagements, we continue to provide responsive support to our barangays and promote transparency, accountability, and good local governance.

TANONG NG BAYAN | Anong proyekto o programa ang maaaring ipatupad gamit ang 20% Development Fund (DF)?

Alinsunod sa Seksyon 287 ng Local Government Code of 1991, ang bawat yunit ng lokal na pamahalaan ay dapat maglaan sa kanilang taunang badyet ng hindi bababa sa dalawampung porsyento (20%) ng kanilang taunang National Tax Allotment (NTA) para sa mga development projects o mga proyektong pampaunlad.

Ang mga LGU ay inaatasan na sundin ang mga sumusunod na patakaran at alituntunin sa paglalaan at paggamit ng 20% DF:
1. Ito ay dapat gamitin upang pondohan ang mga prayoridad na proyektong pampaunlad ng LGU, gaya ng nakasaad sa kanilang mga aprubadong local development plans, at medium-term at annual investment programs, na dapat ay tumutugma naman sa Regional at Philippine Development Plan.
2. Mga proyektong pampaunlad na kinakailangan, angkop, o mahalaga para sa mahusay at epektibong lokal na pamamahala, at ang mga esensyal sa pagtataguyod ng pangkalahatang kapakanan ng mga mamamayan.
3. Maaaring humingi ng teknikal na tulong mula sa mga Pambansang Ahensya ng Pamahalaan (NGAs), gaya ng (ngunit hindi limitado sa) Kagawaran ng Agrikultura, DBM, DepEd, DENR, DOF, DOH, DILG, DPWH, DSWD, at NEDA, upang matukoy ang mga mas makabuluhan at tumutugon na proyektong pampaunlad na maaaring isama sa 20% DF. Ito rin ay upang matiyak ang pagsunod sa mga pamantayang itinakda ng mga nasabing ahensya.

Ang layunin ng pondong ito ay siguruhing may long-term benefit ang bawat sentimo sa ating mga mamamayan!
