Comprehensive Planning PLN3

Land Use Planning

rational and judicious approach of allocating available land resources to different land using activities and for different functions consistent with the overall development vision/goal of a particular locality

Stakeholder

any person, group or institutions that have an interest in a development activity, project or program

Settlements

land uses and physical resources involving some degree of urban or rural concentration and their associated demand and supply requirements

Production

focused on economic production from the extractive to the modern service sectors

Protection

resources that needs to be protected, conserved, rehabilitated, including areas that require prevention and mitigation of disasters

Infrastructure

deals with capital investments that support spatial integration, production efficiency and social service delivery

Bottom-up Approach

Local Development Councils are tasked to prepare Barangay Development Plans to be submitted to the Sangguniang Barangay for review and approval

Comprehensive Land Use Plan

document embodying specific proposals for guiding, regulating growth and development of a city or municipality

Planning area

cities'/municipalities' political boundaries

CLUP document

includes: the comprehensive development land use plan, zoning ordinance, and sectoral studies

CLUP

contains the vision/mission; goals, objectives, strategies; the concept/structure plan; the land use plan; priority programs and projects (CLUP doc)

Zoning ordinance

regulations affecting uses allowed or disallowed in each zone of district, conditions and deviations legally allowed from the requirements of the ordinance (CLUP doc)

Zoning map

graphic representation of the zone classifications/designations, location and boundaries of the districts/zones that were duly established in the zoning ordinance

Sectoral studies

contain the following: demography; social sector; economic sector; infrastructure and utilities

Developability Analysis

determining the accurate information about the supply of available and within the LGU jurisdiction to prepare a land use plan

Land Suitability Analysis (LSA)

in-design evaluation method for planning areas that retain important natural environment features

Carrying Capacity Analysis

method of studying the effects of population growth and urban development on ecological systems, public facility systems, and environmental perception

Committed Lands Analysis

identifies locations where excess community service capacity exists and where cost of additional distribution for each new customer is no greater than the value of increased efficiency in producing the service

Market Forecasts

attempt to project future land development

Perceptual Analysis

relies on people's perceptions which are important determinants of travel behavior, locational choice, social relationships, and political actions

Legibility

clarity of its spatial organizations and ease with which people can "read" its structure

Attractiveness

degree to which it is positively perceived

Symbolism

refers to the meanings that people attach to various parts of the urban area

Quality of Life

synthetic perceptual measure based on resident rating of local trends of change over time in such factors as open space, urban design, crime, traffic, schools and housing affordability

Trend Extension

resembles Dispersed Sheet Urban Form; "maximum flexibility, personal comfort, independence and where local participation is highly possible." Building anywhere according to their preferences and convenience with minimal government intervention

Linear Urban Form

Ribbon or strip development; concentration of development along both sides of major transportation routes; Urban star

Multi-nodal Urban Form

redirects development away from the urban core or city center toward identified urban growth areas or nodes

Galaxy form

clusters of development with each cluster having its own specialization

Radial and circumferential

development channel fanning out from a given center where points of activities are interconnected by radial and circumferential road systems which are potential development corridors

Concentric Urban Form

reflects an outward expansion of urban development from the city center/core induced by the construction of new circumferential and radial roads. Core city

Policy

statement indicating specific guidelines, methods, procedures, rules and forms

Top to Bottom Approach

In absence of barangay and municipal development plans; the Provincial Land Use Plan/Physical Framework Plan may serve as basis and framework for the formulation and updating of the CLUP without precluding consultation with component LGUs
