AN ORDINANCE ESTABLISHING THE CITY OF NAGA, CEBU STANDARD IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM (CN-SIDS)

EXPLANATORY NOTE

Section 16 Article XIll of the 1987 Constitution gives the people and its organizations the right to effective and reasonable participation at all levels of social, political, and economic decision-making and imposes upon the State, by law, to facilitate the establishment of adequate consultation mechanisms.

The Local Government Code, specifically Section 16, imposes upon the local government unit (LGU) to exercise its powers which are necessary, appropriate or incidental for its efficient and effective governance and those which are essential to the 'promotion of the general welfare;

Section 16 Supra. further provides that within their respective territorial jurisdictions, LGUs shall ensure and support, among other things, the preservation and enrichment of culture, promote health and safety, enhance the right of the people to a balanced ecology, encourage and support the development of appropriate and self-reliant scientific and technological capabilities, improve public morals, enhance economic prosperity and social justice, promote full employment among their residents, maintain peace and order, and preserve the comfort and convenience of their inhabitants;

To complement the thrust of the City Government of Naga, Cebu for good governance, there is a need to promote responsible citizenship and community participation to attain holistic development of the City.

Executive Order No. 14 Series of 2016, issued by the City Mayor, recognizes purok as people's organization (PO) and community service unit in the barangays that can be an active partner in the pursuit of local development.

In relation to the preceding, there is a need to provide Nagahanons with the system or mechanism to properly identify and prioritize resident Nagahanons in the access of services in the barangays and other city government departments and/or facilities and avail privileges for the use of city's facilities, and reduce, if not totally eliminate fraudulent transactions and falsifications.
