[edit] Barangay Clusters

For purposes of community organizing and effective delivery of social development projects, the Office for Sustainable Development under supervision of the Office of the Municipal Mayor in 1995, conveniently divided the 48 barangays into 8 barangay clusters with 6 member barangays each.[2]

Cluster Barangays
South East I Antipolo, Calantas, Leviste, Matamis, Palakpak, Tulos
North East II Macalamcam B, Nasi, Pinagsibaan, Putingkahoy, Salao, San Isidro
East III Bayawang, Bulihan, Cahigam, Lumbangan, Mabunga, Mayuro
East IV Alupay, Balibago, Mabato, Macalamcam A, Maligaya, Natu
Central V Bagong Pook, Baybayin, Mavalor, San Carlos, San Jose, Tiquiwan
West Central VI Poblacion D, Poblacion E, Itlugan, Maalas-as, Namuco, Namunga
East Central VII Poblacion A, Poblacion B, Poblacion C, Quilib, San Roque, Sta. Cruz
West VIII Colongan, Malaya, Marilag, Masaya, San Ignacio, Timbugan
This system was patterned after the resolutions traditionally passed by the Sangguniang Bayan as part of its organizational plan following the general elections when new members are elected into office for a new term. Consequently, the barangay cluster arrangement was adopted and served as the framework for land use development strategies enunciated under the Comprehensive Land Use Plan of Rosario, Batangas for Planning Period 2000-2010 (CLUP).[3]

[edit] World Outlook in Local Action

In compliance with the principles of 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, the Municipal Government of Rosario, Batangas formulated the Aksyon ng Bayan Rosario 2001 And Beyond Human and Ecological Security Plan[7] by virtue of Executive Order No. 98-02 dated October 5, 1998 by then Mayor Rodolfo Guerra Villar.

The plan pursued a sustainable development approach to poverty reduction efforts balanced with concerns for ecological security. This required an active collaboration among the municipal and barangay government units, non-governmental and people's organizations, and the local community.

To further institutionalize the Aksyon ng Bayan Rosario 2001 And Beyond framework and integrate its principles in local development plans, the CLUP was prepared by the Municipal Land Use Committee and the Office of the Municipal Planning and Develoment Coordinator, with technical assistance from the Housing and Land Use Regulatory Board (HLURB). In 2000, the CLUP and its accompanying Zoning Ordinance (ZO) was approved with immediate effect.[8]
