Comprehensive Land Use Plan of the City of San Fernando, Pampanga 2012-2021
Chapter 1
INTRODUCTION
A. Background
The planning period of the current CLUP and ZO of the City of San
Fernando shall expire on December 31, 2011. In its desire to formulate an
updated CLUP and ZO, the City Government sought the assistance of the
National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) Regional Office 3 to which
the latter agreed through a Memorandum of Undertaking (MoU) perfected by
both parties in 2011.
The CLUP is regarded as a plan for the long-term management of the local
territory. Hence, the term “comprehensive” in CLUP is understood in its
geographical and territorial sense.

The provisions of the Local Government Code require LGUs to prepare two
plans: the CLUP and the Comprehensive Development Plan (CDP). The CLUP and
the CDP are distinct and separate. Their relationship together with the Executive
and Legislative Agenda may be gleaned from Figure 3.
Completion of the CLUP ahead of the CDP is desired to ensure that the
location policies in the CLUP will guide the identification, screening, and
prioritization of programs and projects in the CDP.
