Chapter I

GENERAL INFORMATION

A. HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT

URDANETA CITY: Estrella del Norte

Urdaneta was organized into a

pueblo on January 8, 1858 when the contiguous settlement of the pioneering inhabitants, mostly Ilocanos and a

sprinkling of Pangasinenses, met all requirements of becoming a town. It came into existence from the conglomeration of portions of barrios from the

surrounding towns of Asingan, Villasis, Malasiqui, Sta. Barbara, Mangaldan, Manaoag and Binalonan.

The petitioners for the creation of the new independent town identified themselves as Cabezas Tenietes representing the inhabitants of barrios Batad in Asingan, Nancamaliran in Sta. Barbara and Caocalan in Mangaldan. They

proposed that the new town be named Soldevilla, in honor of the Alcalde Mayor of the province at that time, Senior Don Manuel Boutelon y Soldevilla.

However, the Alcalde Mayor himself declined the honor and, instead proposed, with the recommendation of the Parish Priest, Fr. Nicolas Manrique Alonzo, the name Urdaneta. Father Andres de Urdaneta was a famous soldier, navigator,

historian, cosmographer and evangelist who was assigned by King Philip II of Spain to join the Legaspi Expedition of 1564. The Vicar of Sta. Barbara and the curates of Asingan and Mangaldan supported Father Alonzo’s proposal to name

the new town Urdaneta.

The petition took almost two years to be processed. But soon after that

the Governor-General issued a decree and the new town of Urdaneta was finally born on the 8th of January 1858. Two months later, on March 8, 1858, the town of Urdaneta was finally inaugurated. An assembly of Principales

representing the seven towns composed of Asingan, Sta. Barbara, Mangaldan, San Jacinto, Manaoag, Binalonan, and Villasis gathered in Urdaneta. The documents on the proclamation of the new town was executed and signed by

all the participating officials. Simultaneous was the construction of Urdaneta’s first concrete church, forerunner of today’s Catholic Cathedral, now the site of

Eastern Pangasinan’s Bishopric.

On January 10, 1998, through a bill sponsored by Rep. Amadeo R. Perez Jr., the Philippine Congress enacted R.A. 8480 converting the Municipality of

Urdaneta into a component city of the Province of Pangasinan. The people of Urdaneta, in a plebiscite, overwhelmingly ratified this legislative act and

Urdaneta was proclaimed a city on March 21, 1998.

B. SOCIO-CULTURAL DEVELOPMENT

The early settlers of Urdaneta were Ilocanos from the North who brought along with them their beliefs, customs and traditions. They are protective, visionaries and clannish. Their houses, which were made of bamboo and

cogon, were compactly arranged. A Spanish Historian, Buzeta, commented on the way they constructed their houses:

“These Indios, upon establishing their communities, constructed their houses so close to one another that no space was left for their orchards contrary to the common practice of the natives

in other places of the island who constructed their houses isolated in the fields adjacent to their farms.”

Some of the old socio-cultural traits were handed down to succeeding generations. These refer to pugot (creature without head); ansisit (dwarf); serena (mermaid); al-alia (ghost); anito (deity); and beliefs such as, never sing in front of a stove while cooking for surely one will marry an old maid or an old man. Foremost among the inhabitants’ customs and traditions are “mano,” kissing the hands of elders as a sign of respect; and “uli,” a pre-wedding arrangement or agreement whereby the parents of the bride and groom finalize

wedding preparations inclusive of the dowry, date of marriage and related matter. A few of these practices slowly vanished with the advent of Christian religions propagated by the Spanish and American rules. Likewise, nowadays,

due to migrations from Tarlac, Pampanga and even as far as Batangas, other beliefs are infused in the community’s cultural heritage.

C. POLITICAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE DEVELOPMENT

The political maturity of the present-day leaders was handed down from the early inhabitants banking primarily on unity and cooperation. On the leaders was reposed the responsibility of governance considering the general

welfare of the constituents.

The Spaniards introduced the centralized form of government and an administrative system whereby the head of a “sitio” was called “Teniente

Absolute” and of the town, “Gobernadorcillo.” In 1843, the title “Gobernadorcillo” was changed to “Capitan.”

The year 1899 ushered the American Era in the Philippine History. One of the local administrative orders asserted by the Americans was the installation of “Municipal Presidents” in lieu of “Capitanes.” From 1937 to the

present, the local chief executive was referred to as “Municipal Mayor.”

Listed hereunder are the past and present local chief executives who

contributed to the development and advancement of the City of Urdaneta:

D. GEOPHYSICAL ATTRIBUTES

1. TOPOGRAPHY

The city forms part of the Central Plains of Luzon consisting of

generally flat landforms. Majority of its barangays have nearly flat terrain. The hilly portions of barangays Cabaruan, Oltama and Sugcong on the

southwest portion of the city are utilized as orchard and pasture areas.

2. SLOPE

The city has a general slope range of zero to three percent. However,

the terrain at its southwestern portions, specifically in barangays Oltama, Cabaruan, and Sugcong, is gently sloping to moderately hilly with a slope range of three to eight percent.

3. SOIL

Urdaneta is blessed with rich soil suitable for almost all kinds of agricultural crops. The types of soil present in Urdaneta are as follows:

a. QUINGUA SERIES

These are very deep and well-drained soils found on nearly level high

river terraces. The solum is 150-200 cm. deep. The AP-horizons, 20 to 30 cm., are brown, dark brown to very dark yellow brown clay loam, silty

clay loam and loam. The B-horizon is brown to dark brown; dark-yellowish brown; greyish-brown or dark greyish brown clay loam; silty clay loam with strong brown, gray light brownish grey; yellowish and

brownish yellow mettles. The C-horizons are stratified silt lam, sandy loam or light clay with strong brown and yellowish brown mettles. This particular soil is generally utilized for rice and corn production. This

series is classified into five types, namely, Quingua Silt Loam, Quingua Sandy Loam Quingua Fine Sandy Loam, Quingua Silty Clay Loam and

Quingua Clay Loam.

b. BANTOG SERIES

Bantog Series consists of very deep and poorly drained soils found on broad and nearly level lands. Thickness is 150-200 cm. depth. The AP horizons are dark greyish brown, grey or dark grey, light clay, silty clay

loam, or greenish grey mettles. This is subject to slight river flooding and may be planted with irrigated rice. Present in Urdaneta is the Bantog

Silty Clay Loam.

c. SAN MIGUEL SERIES

The San Miguel Series consists of deep fine loamy and well-drained alluvial soils. These are found on nearly level to gently undulating landscapes along rivers. The solum is 100-150 cm. AP horizons, 20-35

cm., are dark yellowish brown; yellowish brown; brown to dark brown clay loam; light silty loam and heavy silty loam suitable for corn,

vegetables, rice and citrus trees. San Miguel Fine Sandy Loam is the dominant type in Urdaneta under this series.

Page 17: Republic of the Philippines CITY GOVERNMENT OF URDANETA ... · PDF fileRepublic of the Philippines CITY GOVERNMENT OF URDANETA Province of Pangasinan ... A Spanish Historian, Buzeta,

2015 Ecological Report - 9 -

d. SAN FABIAN SERIES

The San Fabian Series occurs in areas of moderately sloping hills. It is a

residual type of soil derived from waterlaid volcanic turf. Solum thickness ranges from 75-120 cm., brown, dark brown to very dark brown, reddish brown, dark reddish brown, yellowish red wetly to clay

with strong brown mettles. Gravels and highly weathered chalk-like tuffaceous materials are found to be suitable for corn, vegetables and rice. Mapped in Urdaneta under this series are the San Fabian Clay

Loam and San Fabian Silty Loam.

E. GEOLOGIC AND OTHER NATURAL HAZARDS

1. EARTHQUAKE

Urdaneta is traversed at its north-eastern tip by the Pozorrubio to Umingan major fault line. This fault line goes in consonance with the

Philippine fault line which runs from Dingalan Bay in Aurora Province to the Lingayen Gulf. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) recommended a five-metre easement on both sides of fault

traces.

2. FLOOD HAZARD

Flood prone areas include portions of barangays Poblacion, Pinmaludpod, Nancayasan, San Jose, Camantiles, Tulong, Anonas and the lowland portions of barangays.

3. SILTATION

The city is generally underlain by sedimentary rocks of quaternary alluvial, lacustribe, river and residual deposits (Bureau of Mines, Regional

Office No. 1).

4. EROSION

Majority of the barangays experience no erosion at all. This means that no conspicuous erosion is experienced although the topsoil may be disturbed. This is the case in areas that are flat or level to nearly level,

especially in wetlands and paddy rice locations.

Some portions of Labit West experience none to slight (insipient)

erosion. In this category of erosion, the topsoil is disturbed but ploughing may negate the very slight insipient erosion. This is particularly found in

areas that are nearly level to very gently sloping but more especially in areas that are terraced and devoted to paddy rice.

Parts of barangays Cabaruan, Oltama and Sugcong have slight erosion. The pattern in these areas is characterized by sheet erosion with small rills. This type of erosion is a condition wherein the topsoil is

disturbed and slightly reduced by sheet erosion and small rills with no conspicuous development of braids or gullies. This is found in areas that are

very gently sloping to gently undulating, especially in areas with terraced paddies, rotated crops and with short slope length. Areas along the

Page 18: Republic of the Philippines CITY GOVERNMENT OF URDANETA ... · PDF fileRepublic of the Philippines CITY GOVERNMENT OF URDANETA Province of Pangasinan ... A Spanish Historian, Buzeta,

2015 Ecological Report - 10 -

Macalong River and Tulong and Calegu Rivers experience slight erosion, as

well.

F. METEOROLOGY

1. CLIMATE AND RAINFALL

Urdaneta has two major seasons, the wet and the dry season. The City experiences the dry season from November to April. The wet season, in

turn, is experienced from May to October with an average rainfall of 86 mm. The heaviest rainfalls usually occur between July to September.

Some seven to nine typhoons visit the City annually.

2. RELATIVE HUMIDITY AND TEMPERATURE

The city has a moderately hot temperature with average of 28.02 C. The lowest recorded temperature is 21.6 C during the month of December while the highest is 34 C during the month of June. Relative humidity is at

86 C.

G. VEGETATIVE COVER

Pastureland covers 282.20 hectares or 2.33 percent of the locality’s total land area. This can be found in the rolling hills of barangays Oltama, Cabaruan and Sugcong bounding the municipalities of Villasis and Malasiqui.

Mango farms are located on the hills of these barangays while rice fields are on their lowlands which are fed by rivers and creeks. The city has no forest or

large-scale grassland.

H. WATER RESOURCES

The city has three major water resources as well as several creeks in almost all the barangays. These include the Tulong and Musing Rivers at its

northern boundary, the Mitura River bisected barangays Poblacion and San Vicente, and the Macalong River. These bodies of water, as well as the tributaries of the Agno River from the Province of Benguet, drain into the

central plains of the Province of Pangasinan.

Irrigation water to the prime agricultural lands of Urdaneta comes from the Tangal Perez Dam in barangay Nancalobasaan.

I. MINERAL RESOURCES

Mineral resources in the city include tuffaceous shell deposits found in

Cabaruan and Labit West, as well as gravel and sands deposits in the rivers.

1. DENSITY

Barangays San Vicente, Poblacion, and Nancayasan are the most

populated barangays with their respective percent share of 8.19 percent, 7.27 percent, and 6.02 percent to the total population. Being the urban

centre as well as having a relatively small land area, the Poblacion is observed to be the most densely populated with 55 (54.81) persons per hectare in 2010. The least densely populated barangay in 2010 is Cabaruan

with 2 (2.24) persons per hectare. The gross city density is still at a low 10 (10.37). Table 3.6 presents population density figures per barangay.

3. BARANGAY POPULATION GROWTH

8 barangays experienced decreases in their population from 2007‒

2010 specifically, Nancayasan, Palina East, Poblacion, San Jose and San

Vicente from the urban barangays, and Cayambanan, Consolacion and P.T. Orata from the rural barangays. The decrease in barangays San Jose, San Vicente, Palina East and Cayambanan were only very slight. However, there

is a significant decrease in Poblacion indicating an out-migration trend towards recipient barangays in the periphery. The barangays with major

increase in their respective populations were Nancamaliran West, Camantiles and Camanang with 20.11 percent, 18.71 percent and 18.24 percent, respectively. Table 3.09 shows the growth of population per

barangays.

“Maternity care refers to the safe and high quality health care treatment given in relation to pregnancy and delivery of a newborn child. Maternity care is provided on the basis of the physical and psychosocial needs of the patient, the patient's

entire family, and the newly born offspring. Maternity care practices include care during labor, birthing, prenatal care, and postpartum care.”1

Recently, the Lying-In Clinic was launched by the City Health Office. It is

located beside the City Health Office Building at barangay Poblacion. The Urdaneta City Lying-In Clinic started its operation on November 11, 2014. It is situated at The Old City Hall Compound just beside the City

Health Office. The Clinic is open 24/7 catering to pregnant women who are expected to have Normal Spontaneous Deliveries. It has a three- (3-)

Bed capacity accommodation for Post-Partum Patients, a Labor Room and a Delivery Room. The clinic also does Pre-natal Consultations. New Born Screening is also available for newborn babies delivered in the

clinic and also for deliveries done outside the clinic. It is manned daily by two (2) midwives, two (2) casual employees and one (1) Nurse per twelve- (12-) hour shift. New Born routine care is done and initial immunizations

are immediately given to newly born babies. Moreover, health teachings are given to both mother and child where the mother is advised to have

regular check-up and immunizations for her children once discharged.

8. SENIOR CITIZENS

The city promotes the welfare of the senior citizens by providing

Special Social Services for the Elderly. There are 16,811 senior citizens, as per the records of the City Social Welfare and Development Office. The City also has a Senior Citizens Centre on a 500-square meter lot in Gracia

G. POVERTY AND FOOD THRESHOLD

Based on the 2012 data released by the National Statistics Coordination

Board (NSCB), there were 96,109 poor families in the Province of Pangasinan. Without any given reason, there was a remarkable decrease of poor families in

the provincial level considering that 103,487 poor families were recorded last 2009. Further, in 2009, 66.89 percent of the regional data of poor families are from Pangasinan. This big percentage can be attributed by the population

share of Pangasinan to Region 1. This is so considering that Pangasinan comprises 58.54% of the total population of Region 1, based on the 2010

Census of Population released by the Philippine Statistics Authority, (PSA, formerly known as National Statistics Authority or NSO). And notably, only 55.64 percent of the Regional population are considered poor families who

dwells in Pangasinan.

1. POVERTY THRESHOLD

Poverty threshold gauges the monthly income to which a family with five (5) members needs to meet its basic food and non-food needs. There was

a steep increase in the poverty threshold from 2006 to 2009. However, a gradual increase may be noted from 2009 to 2012.

Poverty Threshold 13,860 17,043 17,949

Food Threshold 9,680 12,003 12,533

2. FOOD THRESHOLD

Food threshold gauges the average monthly income of a 5-member

family to meet its food requirements. From the 9,680 food threshold of 2006, there was a 23.99 percent increase wherein the food threshold in

2009 amounted to 12,003. Remarkably, there was only 4.42 percent increase in 2012 – thus, the food threshold for 2012 was 12,533.

5. AGRICULTURAL FACILITIES

a. IRRIGATION FACILITIES

There were 4,624 hectares of irrigated agricultural and 365.99 hectares of rain fed croplands in

Urdaneta in the year 2015. The Tangal Perez Dam in Barangay

Nancalobasaan and the Agno River Basin Irrigation System services the city’s irrigated lands.

b. PRODUCTION AND POST-HARVEST FACILITIES

Post-harvest facility has a direct effect on the productivity of crops, thus, a long-term effect on the economic growth of any locality. It was stated

that the main objectives of post-harvest technology are as follows: 1. to maintain quality (appearance, texture, flavor and nutritive

value);

2. to protect food safety, and 3. to reduce losses (both physical and in market value) between

harvest and consumption.3

Further, this economic growth will be achieved in line with said objectives. The quality of produced crops dictates its price in the market.

Further, food safety relates to the health of the City’s consumer-constituents. And lastly, post-harvest facilities reduce losses, thus higher capital gain for the crop producers, and with higher supply in the

market, lower equilibrium price for the consumers. In 2015, Urdaneta has 61 multi-purpose pavements, 180 threshers, 18

rice mills and 34 warehouses for their post-harvest facilities. The barangays

with the most number of post-harvest facilities are as follows: Barangay Palina

East with 5 multi-purpose pavements; Barangay Bayaoas with 6 warehouses;

Barangay Labit West with 6 Rice Mills; and Barangay Palina West and San

Jose with 11 Threshers; and, Barangay Bayaoas with 6 warehouses.

Urdaneta is famous for being a major trading centre for livestock, fruits

and vegetables. The “Bagsakan Market” in the Poblacion Area has been tagged as the “Divisoria of the North”. Locally harvested produce, as well as those

coming from neighboring towns and provinces, are likewise traded to such destinations as Benguet, Cagayan, Zambales, Bataan, Bulacan, and Metro Manila.

The Public Market in Poblacion has wet and dry sections as well as retail areas. It has a “Pasalubong Centre” which exhibits local products such as the espasol of Macalong, carabao milk of Tulong, and handmade products from the

Livelihood Skills and Training Center. Another local industry which may be highlighted is the “Baracbac” weaving, artisans of which may be found in

barangays Cayambanan and Nancalobasan.

The new Urdaneta City Livestock Market is now housed at the newly developed site in barangay Anonas, just beside the New City Hall. One of the

biggest in the country, the Livestock Market features ultra-modern facilities. It

will get an additional shed to accommodate the increasing influx of traders

doing business in the city. Majority of the livestock traded here come from adjacent towns of Binalonan, Villasis, Sta. Barbara, Mangaldan, Mapandan

and from the provinces of Batangas, Mindoro and Masbate. There is also Fish Trading Centre in Barangay Camanang.

Another economic infrastructure facility is the City Abattoir, which is located at Barangay Anonas. It hosts complete facilities such as pre-slaughter

pens, stunning areas, boiler room, dressing area, etc. to ensure that safe meat are sold in the Market.

An additional economic facility which the City had erected is the Agri-Pinoy Trading Center. This facility will maintain Urdanta’s stature as a center of wholesale fruits and vegetable trading in Northern Luzon. Further, this

major market facility will get a boost to make these better suited to address the growing demands and opportunities.

confirms the City’s sincere commitment of making itself an investment haven

and a trading center.

Chapter VII

ENVIRONMENT SECTOR

A. DRAINAGE AND SEWERAGE

The City’s public drainage system mainly services Brgy. Poblacion particularly the Central Business District and parts of urban barangays.

Drainage in the rural barangays is mainly through surface water run-off leading to the numerous rivers and creeks in the city.

Urdaneta is subjected to seasonal flooding because of its flat terrain and the

presence of bodies of water and tributaries of the Agno River from the Province of Benguet which drains into the central plains of the

Province of Pangasinan. Urdaneta City is a part of the Agno River Basin making it

susceptible to flooding especially on the areas of Brgys. San Jose, Camantiles, Tulong, and Anonas, as well as the lowlands in Brgy. Catablan, Labit West and Labit

Proper.

The Bureau of Soils and Management (BSWM) describes some portions of

Urdaneta to experience slight flooding up to depths of 30 to 40 cms during heavy rainfall receding to less than 20 cms within one to three days. The

floodwater brings large amounts of silt and mine tailings from Benguet which are deposited on the riverbed and the flooded agricultural lands.

B. CEMETERY

The ten memorial parks in Urdaneta. The two government-operated

memorial parks (Roman Catholic Cemetery and Municipal Cemetery) are all located in the Poblacion. The eight others are found in Poblacion (Urdaneta Memorial Park), Nancamaliran West (Aglipayan Cemetery), San Jose (Roman

Catholic Cemetery, St. Joseph Memorial Park, Mt. Moriah Memorial Park & Himlayan), Pinmaludpod (Forest Lake) and Bactad East (Solemn Place).

Chapter VIII

DEVELOPMENT ADMINISTRATION

The primary objective of the local government is to provide the state with effective and efficient government. This is explained in the provisions of the

1991 Local Government Code (LGC). It is not enough to have a competent administrator in order to achieve this but it also requires well-designed organizational structures at all levels of the government bureaucracy. The

provision of local autonomy articulated in the LGC is a sincere response of the national leadership to the popular clamour of local government officials for more autonomy in local governance. The Code clearly defines the parameters of

the political and corporate powers of the local government units. The body politic is due to a political subdivision of the national government.

A. ORGANIZATIONAL FRAMEWORK AND RESOURCE CAPABILITY

1. HUMAN RESOURCES

There are two types of offices that every city government is required to

implement i.e. the mandatory offices (such as Planning and Development

Office, the Office of the Secretary of the Sangguniang Panlungsod, Budget Office, Accounting Office, etc.) and optional offices (such as the Office on Environment and Natural Resource Office, Office on Architectural Planning

and Design, etc.). Other posts can be appointed as the exigency of the work requires only after the creation is made by the Office of the Mayor and the

accompanying resolution of the Sangguniang Panlungsod (SP). These include the Environment and Natural Resources Officer, Architect, Information Officer, Cooperative Officer, Population Officer and General

Services Officer.

As of 31 December 2015, the City of Urdaneta has 1,272 employees, which is the aggregate number of permanent, contractual, and job order employees. Permanent employees are those who are included in the City’s

Plantilla. The Plantilla is herein presented in the succeeding pages. On the other hand, contractual personnel are those whose employment in the government is in accordance with a special contract to undertake a specific

work or job, requiring special or technical skills not available in the employing agency, to be accomplished within a specific period, which in no

case shall exceed one year, and performs or accomplishes the specific work or job, under his own responsibility with a minimum of direction and supervision from the City, specifically the Human Resource and

Management Office (HRMO). And, Contract of Services/Job Orders are employees whose services rendered are not considered governments services
