Ela (2007-2010) PDF

Greetings!
The birth of the Executive-Legislative Agenda (ELA) of the Municipality of Trinidad is

crucial process in the commencement of collaborate and unified efforts of municipal
officials and heads of offices as the LGU gears towards full-bloom development of
the town.
Like all journeys in history, especially those that have marked significant contribution
to the development of the modern era, the ELA shall serve as the blueprint of the
town’s development. It shall serve as a map upon which the programs and projects of
the LGU are formally laid-down, recognized, approved and committed upon by those
who are engaged in the policy making and in the implementation.
Hence, I extend my sincerest commendation to the members of the Sangguniang
Bayan for having participated meticulously in the critique the programs and projects
on the aspects of policy and law-making. Likewise, the commendation is due to the
heads of offices and the LGUs luminaries for having concretized the steps and the
defined direction on the aspect of implementation and monitoring.
I am indeed grateful for the commitment of the stakeholders who shall lead and those
who shall be involved in the implementation of said programs and projects. Those
embodied in the ELA shall form the substance and character of our town as the LGU
strives to uplift its socio-economic status as its developments shall be appreciated by
those in the grass roots.
With fervent hopes, sustained diligence and notable dedication I am positive that the
LGU shall enjoy the sight of golden sunrise that shall mark the birth of the new
Trinidad.
Mabuhay ang Trinidad!

OFFICE OF THE VICE MAYOR
The Executive - Legislative Agenda (ELA) is our

commitment to provide the desired development
directions for the Municipality of Trinidad.
The formulation of the Executive and Legislative Agenda

or ELA which was held in Baguio City last September 19-
23, 2007 is in consonance with DILG Memorandum
Circular No. 64, series of 2004 which is a joint agreement of the Executive and
Legislative and is a road map for complementary executive and legislative actions in
our quest for effective governance and efficient delivery of basic services.
The worthy members of the Sangguniang Bayan have taken up the challenge to work
together in unison of moving the legislative body achieve greater heights through the
passage and enactment of legislative measures that is more responsive to the
peoples needs, a legislation that support the comprehensive plans and programs of
our newly elected Local Chief Executive geared towards the general welfare of our
townspeople of Trinidad.
Promoting the principle of participative and consultative planning, consultations and
planning workshop was made with the active participation of no less than our
dynamic Congressman of the 2nd District of Bohol, our energetic Local Chief
Executive and Staff, the SB Members and Staff, the Head of Offices, NGO
representatives and of course the efficient facilitation of our MLGOO, and other DILG
personnel, which served as vital ingredients in finalizing the ELA. We acknowledge
with deep and sincere appreciation their valuable contributions.
With the Executive-Legislative Agenda in place, the next step is to translate it into
concrete program and projects, a much harder task considering our limited
resources. But with everyone doing his share we will be able to turn our vision for
Trinidad into a reality.

1. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
During the pre-Spanish period, a group of migrants established a

settlement in a place along the river. The place was known as C CAABBIIZZO
ONN
after the buri fabric that was the prime commodity of the area. The settlement
was heavily infested with mosquitoes; and nets made from the buri fabric
were a necessary household fixture.
When the Spanish friars established themselves in the area, Cabizon was
renamed “IIPPIILL” in reference to the giant ipil-ipil trees abundant along the
riverbanks. Ipil together with Ubay and the interior parts of Talibon, had cattle
ranches. Ipil was a convenient stopover for the cattle trade and was
established as a sub-commercial center.
Ipil was flourishing until the early American colonial period circa 1900,
when Ipil disintegrated and was subdivided between the Municipalities of
Talibon and Ubay. At that time, the town’s Chief Executive, Lucas
Hinlayagan, ceded all barangays west of Ipil River to Talibon and those on
the eastern part to Ubay.
T he “Ipilanos” desired to regain its autonomy. Through the able guidance

of Juan Gonzales, the Ipilanos’ desire was realized on A AU UGGU
USSTT 1144,, 11994477
when the Municipal Charter (E EXXE ECCU

- after the name of the wife of the late President Manuel A. Roxas
- in honor of the Patron of Talibon – The Most Holy Trinity
- located at the junction of 3 major routes to Tagbilaran, the capital

city of the province – the interior, northeastern and northwestern routes
- 16 -
2. PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS
2.1 GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION AND ACCESSIBILITY
The municipality of Trinidad extends from 124º 11’ to 124º 25’ East
Longitude and from 9º 38’30” to 10º 06’34” North Latitude, on the
northeastern part of Bohol province. It shares common boundaries
with the following municipalities: North with Talibon and Getafe, East
with Ubay; Northeast with Bien Unido; South with San Miguel and
West with Danao.
Having no coastline, marine transport is concentrated along the

navigable Ipil River. It is approximately 47 statute miles (55 kms.) east
of Cebu City across the Camotes Sea. The municipality is the
converging point of Bohol’s three major highways, which forms a
junction at the Poblacion and is reached from Tagbilaran City thus; 98
kilometers through the interior route, 128 kilometers through the
northern route and 138 kilometers through the eastern route.
2.2 LAND AREA
Comprising of twenty (20) barangays, the Municipality of Trinidad has

a total land area of 15,263.0344 hectares. Barangay Poblacion
comprised the only urban area of the municipality covering an area of
273.68 hectares or 1.79 % of the total area. The remaining 98.2 %
comprised the rural areas.
2.3 WEATHER / CLIMATE
Climate in the Philippines has been described in terms of rainfall

distribution received in a locality. One such climatic classification is the
Modified Coronas’. With the use of average monthly distribution of
rainfall at different stations, four types of such rainfall distribution in the
Philippines are defined.
The climate of Trinidad is classified as “Type IV.” With this type of

climate, rainfall is more or less evenly distributed throughout the year.
This is also intermediate between the first and second types, although
it resembles the second more closely since it has a dry season.
- 17 -
A recent study shows that about 47% of the average annual rainfall in
the country is attributed to the occurrence of tropical cyclones in its
vicinity (especially from June to December). These tropical cyclones,
which affect the climate of the country, generally form in the North
Pacific region and generally move in west-northwest direction towards
the country. The entire extreme northern portion of Luzon has the
most number of cyclones affecting it in any year. In Bohol, the
frequency of occurrence is one cyclone per year.
The most common air currents are the northeast monsoon (from high-
pressure area of Asia); the trade winds (from the Pacific); and the
southwest monsoon (from the Southern Hemisphere). The general
directions of winds from these sources are from north to east (October
to January); from east to southeast (February to April) and southernly
(May to September).
2.4 TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
The coolest month is January with an average temperature of

26.81ºC, while the hottest month is May with an average temperature
of 29.31ºC. Relative humidity is lowest in May with an average of 82%
and the highest is November with an average of 86%. The pattern
generally follows the season with humidity being high from June to
February when precipitation is high and low for the rest of the
relatively drier month. Average annual humidity is 84%.
2.5 TOPGRAPHY AND SLOPE
The topography of Trinidad is characterized by level plains on the

eastern portion, which gently undulates to hills, and mountains on the
western part. The highest elevation is 259 meters above sea level
located in the northwest part of the municipality.
The terrain of Trinidad is generally level to undulating, with slope of
0% to 8% as these areas comprises 56.51% of the total land area.
These areas are predominant in the eastern portion of the
municipality. Moderately sloping to hills (8% to 30% slope) comprises
21.20%; while steep hills and mountains (30-50% slope) comprises
22.09% of the total land area.
- 18 -
2.6 SOIL
Three types of soil are found in the locality: the ubay clay loam, ubay
sandy loam and hydrosol.
The Ubay series is the dominant soil type in the area, which
developed from shale and sedimentary rocks. They are relatively
mature soils, well drained and highly acidic. Potassium, phosphorus
and organic content are relatively low.
The eastern portion of the municipality is covered with ubay sandy

loam, comprising 45.25% of the total land area. Its sandy nature is not
suitable to rice production nor its porous subsoil and substratum.
Ubay clay loam in the western portion covers 52.66% of the total land
area. Most of the areas covered with ubay clay loam are classified as
non-agricultural lands.
Crop production can only be increased when fertilizers are used and
irrigation is intensified. However, these soils are highly suitable to root
crops such as cassavas and camote. These areas are also ideal for
tree crop farming and as pasturelands.
Hydrosol is found along the banks of Ipil and Soom Rivers and their
tributaries. Fishponds are developing in these areas, although
swamps and nipa still covers most of these areas.
2.7 EROSION POTENTIAL
Most areas of the municipality are classified, as having “no apparent

erosion to slightly eroded” as these areas comprises 38.52% of the
total land area. The remaining areas are moderately to severely
eroded.
Areas comprising from the eastern side down to the middle portion of
Trinidad were found to have no apparent erosion to slightly eroded.
These areas cover 83.21% of the total number of barangays.
- 19 -
Moderately eroded are found in Barangays Kauswagan and San
Vicente. Areas having severe erosion can be found in the western
portion of the Municipality, covering barangays San Vicente,
Kauswagan, San Isidro and Sto. Tomas.
3. POPULATION
3.1 POPULATION TREND AND GROWTH RATE
The total population of the Municipality of Trinidad per 2000 census is

30,655.
Although, population numbers were increasing, population growth rate

was declining, due to out-migration and declining birth rate. Out-
migration is a result of job opportunities and labor demand not only in
the metropolitan areas of the country but outside of the country as
well. The declining birth rate is, basically, due to the no-nonsense
implementation of the Family Planning Program.
3.2 SEX – AGE STRUCTURE
In terms of age structure, majority of Trinidad’s population belongs to

the youth sector as the ages twenty (20) years old and below
comprises 51% of the total population. The number of males
outnumbered the female population, in every one hundred (100)
males are 104 females.

they comprise 28% of the total household population.
4. HEALTH
The Rural Health Unit known as the Municipal Health Office of Trinidad
takes charge in the prevention of diseases, prolonging life, promoting health
and efficiency through organized community effort for environmental
sanitation, the control of communicable infections and giving of information,
education and communication (IEC) to the people.
4.1 MORTALITY AND MORBIDITY STATISTICS
Broncho Pneumonia, hypertensive vascular diseases, heart failure and

accidents are leading causes of mortality. Poor environmental
sanitation, lack of potable water, inadequate support infrastructure, less
accessibility to basic health care, lack of education and health
awareness, inadequate supply of medicines and poverty are common
problems in rural communities. These are the primary reasons for the
aforementioned diseases to thrive and constraint to the improvement
and development of the health sector of the municipality.
- 21 -

The DepEd Mission will be achieved through its 20 elementary, 20 primary

schools and 4 public high schools, located in various barangays of the
Municipality.

welfare service. The MSWD is extending welfare assistance through its
various programs and projects. Its livelihood projects, disaster assistance,
nutrition feeding program, etc. have already help countless beneficiaries. It is
also actively involved in the management of Day Care Centers.
9. AGRICULTURE
9.1 AGRICULTURAL LAND
The Network of Protected Areas for Agriculture (NPAAD) indicated

9,839 hectares, which is the total land area set aside for agricultural
purposes.
Production yields for rice ranges from 2.8 MT/has. to a high of 4.3
MT/has. Areas with low production yield are located in rainfed rice
lands. Whereas, the irrigated ricelands produces 3.5 to 4.3 MT/has.
Corn Production is based on 2 cropping per year. Production yields

ranges from 0.70 to 3.60 MT/has., averaging 2.15 MT/has. and that
of the provincial average.
The total annual yields of rice and corn would result in 20,943.60
metric tons of cereal stuff being produced.
9.2 LIVESTOCK AND POULTRY
The municipality’s livestock and poultry raising industry is generally

backyard in scale.
Increasing production is expected to be sustained as livestock and

poultry production programs; such as the dispersal program,
upgrading of breeding program, have touch-base with all the
barangays.
- 23 -
9.3 FISHERY PRODUCTION
The municipality program of fishery production was concentrated in

fishpond culture for bangus, prawns and also newly studied seawage
culture. There are 150 fisherfolks are engaged in this kind of
livelihood.
A Municipal Demonstration in grouper culture in cages and pond,

crab culture in cages is one of the existing municipal projects at
barangays Soom, and Ipil River. And this could be expanded for
future livelihood to the inhabitants in this municipality.
There are also “Tilapia Culture” in the different SFR or water

impounding in the barangays.
10. TOURISM
The Municipality of Trinidad has been developing and promoting the
Batungay Cave and Kawasan Falls as Tourist Attractions of the
municipality.
Batungay Twin Peaks is known for its hills and caves. The area is
suited for development as Nature’s Parks with facilities for hiking,
camping, spelunking and other recreational activities. The Batungay
Cave is located at Barangay Sto. Tomas, which is 8 kilometers away
from Poblacion proper. The cave is 1.8 kilometers with several
segments. The very wide portions are called “simbahan” which means
“church” by the ancestors. It has a natural beauty with various sizes of
stalactites and stalagmites.
Another potential for tourist attraction is the Kawasan Falls. It is located

in barangay San Isidro which is 13 kilometers away from the Poblacion
proper and is 5 kilometers away from the Batungay Cave.
11. COMMERCE
Commerce and trading in the Municipality of Trinidad is more dynamic that
most of the municipalities in the province, because of the following factors:
- 24 -
- STRATEGIC LOCATION. Trinidad is the point of convergence of
three major routes: eastern, northern and interior routes (coastal and
interior highways). These routes originated from the Province Capital –
Tagbilaran City, which branches-out to three different routes that
connects the interior and coastal municipalities in the province and
converging in the Municipality of Trinidad. As a converging point,
Trinidad becomes a convenient trading center for the various
municipalities. Products from the coastal municipalities (specifically
marine products) were bartered for crops and other agricultural
products of the interior municipalities. Because of the routes, products
from outside the province-specifically Cebu and Leyte, handily found its
way to Trinidad to be traded.
- THE IPIL RIVER. The Ipil River is a waterway vital to the

commercial activity of the municipality. The many islands of the coastal
municipalities in the northern part of the province are noted for its
various marine products. Islands traders conveniently transport these
products to Trinidad, through Ipil River, for local, provincial or regional
trading.
- FACILITIES. Aside from the infrastructure-transportation facilities,

the municipality has cold storage, ice plant and milling facilities; vital
agricultural post-production facilities.
Commercial activity is largely concentrated in Poblacion, where almost

70% of the total numbers of commercial establishments are located.
12. INDUSTRY
Although Trinidad is said to have both metallic and non-metallic mineral
deposits such as gold, copper, iron, silica, manganese and guano, there
were no activities or investment towards the development of these
resources. A 1,100 hectares of public lands in the northwest part of the
municipality is being registered as a mining claim, but no efforts had been
made to develop or extract its resources.
There are no large-scale industrial establishments in the municipality.

Cottage, small to medium-scale industries, however, is proliferating. These
include weaving, mat weaving and basket making.
- 25 -
Agricultural postharvest facilities, such as rice and corn mills, cold storage,
etc., are the only major industrial establishments in the municipality.
Agro-industrialization proposed to have work potential for development as

the municipality has enough raw materials for agri-based industries,
namely: coco oil mill and Ethel alcohol processing from cassava and
camote.
13. FORESTRY
The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) in its Land
Classification Map delineated 4,640.3872 hectares as classifi8ed
Forestland or Timberland; comprising 30.40% of the total land area.
This upland area is located in the western portion of the municipality

covering areas of Barangay Kauswagan, San Vicente, Banlasan and San
Isidro. Another forestland area is the 278 hectares comprising of
mangroves and fishponds along the forestland areas to an aggregate total
32.22% of the total land area.
The remaining 67.77% of the total land area is classified as Alienable and
Disposable (A&D) lands.
14. INFRASTRUCTURE AND UTILITIES
TRANSPORTATION
A total of 95.901 kilometers of road length services the transportation

network within the municipality.
14.1 POWER
The Bohol Electric Cooperative (BOHECO) provides electricity to the

municipality.
- 26 -
Most of the households with electrical supply connections are those
living in the urban areas. The upland barangays due to its poor
accessibility and widely dispersed households (low density) are not
served with electrical connections. Only 50% of the households were
energized and the remaining 50% are without electricity.
14.2 WATER SUPPLY

Currently, only 140 households are connected to the TMDA Water
System or a mere 3.5% of the total number of households. The
number of households utilizing tubed piped deep well and tubed
piped shallow well is 1,561 or 39.07% of the total. The remaining
57.43% derived their water supply from other sources, such as
shallow well and spring.
The water sources differ not only in the way they deliver water, but
more importantly in the safety of water that they disperse, piped
sources tend to deliver safer water than unpiped ones, deep wells
has safer water than shallow dug ones and well water most of the
time is preferable to water coming from lakes and rivers.
The safety of rainwater depends on the manner in which it is
collected and stored. Street peddlers have proven to deliver one of
the most unsafe types of drinking water.
The TMDA deliver safe drinking water. The tubed / piped deep well
although it still needs upgrading can also be considered to deliver
safe drinking water than the rest.
14.3 COMMUNICATION
14.4.1 TELEPHONE
The Globelines is now serving telephone lines within the
households of the municipality aside from the presence of
Globe and Smart cellular sites.
14.4.2 POSTAL AND TELEGRAPIC SERVICES
Postal and Telegraphic services are being rendered by

the Bureau of Post and the Bureau of
Telecommunications.
14.4.3 VHF RADIO
The most commonly and widely used communication

system within the municipality and in the region are VHF
- 27 -
radios. The Local Government Unit is providing local
officials and each barangays with hand-held units.
15. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT
Although Trinidad is a rural municipality, several factors have shown that it

is headed towards industrialization and urbanization. As a trading center, it
has the making of becoming a commercial growth center leading to
urbanization. Its rich mineral resources and agriculture, will serve as the
trigger towards industrialization. The presence of interested investors, who
are already making preliminary, moves (inquiries, site visit, etc.) towards the
establishment of their investments in Trinidad.
