Municipality of Sta. Monica
Province of Surigao del Norte
FOREWORD
The Local Government Unit is mandated to adopt Comprehensive Land Use Plan and enact Zoning Ordinance as its implementing tool. The mandate is embodied in the RA 7160 (Local Government Code) as well as other appropriate laws, rules and policies of the national government. CLUP is the basic blue print for development at the local level which is subjected to review from time to time in order to incorporate changes in land uses.
The Municipality of Sta. Monica with the assistance of HLURB-NMR and Provincial Government of Surigao del Norte through PPDO was a recipient of the project of Mainstreaming DRR and CCA to Local Plans and Decision-making Processes as in the case of CLUP and Zoning Ordinance. This is now the second edition for the locality to update the CLUP and ZO which aims to integrate Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Change Adaptation.
Our local planners as well as local officials are directly involved in the project through participation in the series of workshops, map shops and write shops conducted by Housing and Land Use Regulatory Board-Northern Mindanao Region .
We hope that this plan will serve as a guide in Mainstreaming DRR+CCA and above all, this plan will direct our people and local officials to be more resilient in the adverse of disasters and the ever changing climatic condition that we are experiencing right now which resulted to continued sea water level increase and the increasing number of typhoons that can affect the development pursuits of the locality.
