Rationale
The 2023-2025 Executive-Legislative Agenda (ELA) of the Municipality of Bacarra is a blueprint
of development agenda and capability programs mutually agreed upon by both the executive and
legislative branches of the municipality. The ELA unites the development thrusts and priorities of
the Local Chief Executive, with the Local Sangunian providing support through appropriate
legislative measures in translating the development agenda into more viable programs and
projects in accordance with the vision, mission, goals and objectives of the Local Government
Unit. This is a short-term plan of activities that identifies the development framework and
prioritizes the plans and programs in step together with the capacity needs of the organization
within the three-year term limit of the Local Chief Executive and other local officials, through a
participatory planning process.

Bacarra conducted its ELA formulation workshop last August 30-31, 2022 at Asaricha Tropical
Beach Resort in Pasuquin, Ilocos Norte. It was participated by the ELA Planning Team comprising
the executive and legislative departments of the Local Government Unit and the representatives
from the different sectors of the municipality which includes the academe and the different CSOs
and NGAs (see membership in Annex A and the planning activities in Annex B). The vision and
mission statement of the municipality were revisited and unanimously approved the team. The
sectoral goals, objectives, strategies, programs and legislative measures which were determined
during the workshop encompassed the five development sectors: social, economic, physical,
environment, and institutional sectors.

The ELA was later presented and reviewed by the members of the newly convened Municipal
Development Council (MDC) last 7 October 2022. The ELA was approved and adopted that same
day by the MDC in plenary.

The Municipality’s ELA 2023-2025 shall be used as a principal document in the retooling and
updating of the various plans, programs, and budgetary allocations of the Municipality, to address
the identified existing pressing concerns and issues, as well as to take the necessary steps in
achieving the development vision of the new local leadership.

II. Vision Statement

A. Vision Elements and Descriptors

A new vision statement was formulated during the Executive-Legislative Agenda (ELA) workshop.
The vision of Bacarra pictures what its people want for the Municipality in the next 10 years and
beyond. It shall serve as the guiding framework for all its major plans, programs, and policies.

“BACARRA: Agro-commercial and tourism center of Ilocos Region;

nurtured by an empowered people, living in a safe and resilient community
thriving in a sustainable economy; guided by compassionate leaders inspiring
exemplary governance”.

An elaboration of the vision elements, descriptors and selected success indicators is discussed
below:

Nature of the local economy

The general economic policy and development goal of Bacarra is to achieve sustainable growth
through becoming an agro-commercial and tourism center in the Ilocos region.

Agro-commercial Center. An “agro-commercial center” is exhibited by an increasing trend in

volume and value of agricultural, livestock and fisheries production, and the positioning of
Bacarra as ‘the area for agricultural trade and commerce’ north of Laoag City. The increased
commercial activities seen to initially be driven by agriculture are expected to pave the way for
the growth of other businesses and diversification of investments in the Municipality,
encouraging local entrepreneurship and creating employment opportunities.

Tourism Center. As a “tourism center”, the local industry must demonstrate an increase in visitor
arrivals, with tourist spending encouraged through the development of new tourism attractions
as well as construction/establishment of additional tourism-related businesses.

Sustainable Economy. Overall, it is the vision of the Municipality for its community to thrive in a
sustainable economy. It shall be exemplified by improved productivity and yield in rice and fish
production; increase in agricultural areas utilized for alternative crops; increase in percentage of
farmers covered by crop insurance; increase in number of workers in occupations other than
farming; continuous rise in the number of local commercial establishments; and increase in the
number of tourist arrivals received by the Municipality.

Qualities of People as Individuals and Society

As a people and as a society, Bacarra envisions to have an empowered, safe, and resilient
community.

Empowered. An empowered populace means that is well-educated (i.e., with 0 drop out rates,
decreasing number of out of school youths, and 100% participate rate among learners), and have
access to adequate and quality social welfare (adequate learning centers in every barangay, well-
implemented social welfare programs) and population development services (leading to
decrease in sexually transmitted diseases, unplanned/teenage pregnancies).

Safe. Safe is characterized by a community that has full access to quality social services,
particularly in the aspects of health, sanitation, child and maternal care and nutrition; and a visible
protective service sector that will ensure low prevalence of crime, vehicular accidents and
criminality in general, and a town that is drug-free.

7
Resilient. Municipality and all barangays are considered resilient to all types of hazards (natural
and human-induced hazards) with the presence of adequate and functional DRRM infrastructure
such as evacuation and isolation units, flood control and drainage canals, and fully equipped and
operational DRRM emergency response teams (including fire suppression response).

Condition of the Built Environment

Resilient. Bacarra envisions a resilient built environment, characterized by the provision of

adequate disaster mitigation infrastructure (such as flood control facilities and drainage systems,
proper road access and connectivity within the municipality (farm to market roads and bridges),
functional and sufficient irrigation systems (concreted communal irrigation facilities and solar-
powered irrigation systems), and construction and maintenance of durable building
infrastructures (Municipal Hall and Municipal Hall Annex, Motorpool facility, agricultural storage
facilities, the public market, and school buildings) to properly support the provision of social,
production, and government-related services within the municipality.

State of the Natural Environment

Safe. Bacarra aims to maintain a safe natural environment to ensure the well-being of its
residents and the ecology. The environment is deemed safe once environment-friendly policy on
natural resources are enforced (pollution control), where proper waste management is practiced;
materials recovery and composting are effective; environmental enhancement programs such as
tree planting and coastal clean up drives are regularly conducted; and the environmental
management plans updated, implemented and monitored accordingly, ensuring pollution is
minimized and natural resources protected and conserved.

The Qualities of the Local Leadership

Bacarra envisions having an empowered institution led by compassionate leaders that inspire
exemplary governance.

Empowered. An empowered institution is one that reaches its targets (for revenue generation and
program implementation) and is able to provide quality service to its constituents through a
dedicated and well-structured workforce with 100% of mandatory government positions created
and filled.

Compassionate. Compassionate leadership is characterized by a responsive government, where

the voice of civil society is heard and considered essential to public service, exemplified by the
empowered active participation of CSOs in local special bodies; high level of satisfaction among
constituents and clientele; and implementation of an effective grievance mechanism that
addresses all client complaints in accordance with government rules and regulations and the
Municipality’s Citizen’s Charter.

Exemplary Governance. With good leadership inspires exemplary governance, where the level of
service in all areas of governance are performed at the required standards, and as such is able
to be a consistent recipient of the Seal of Good Local Governance award, and other accolades,
for its commitment to deliver good governance and excellent public service.

B. Vision Reality Gap

The vision-reality gap is the “space” or “distance” between the desired state of the Municipality
and the current situation for each of the five development sectors. Once it is known where and
what the gaps are, the necessary actions could be identified to close the gap. The results of the
vision-reality gap workshop is summarized in the following Table. As can be noted in the table
that follows, some of the areas with a high gap rating and are yet to be addressed include:

• Devolution and full implementation of health services;

• Operation of fully-equipped isolation unit;

8
• Improved services catering out of school youth;
• Expansion of government center/Municipal Hall Annex;
• Widening of road paths through construction of RCDG bridges;
• Provision of irrigation systems at rainfed agricultural barangays
• Provision of adequate and full-service Agricultural Storage Facilities
• Proper maintenance and storage of motor vehicles and heavy equipment; and
• Creation of mandatory positions to improve government services.

IV. Platform of Governance/Priority Thrusts
As earlier noted, the ELA shall be used as a principal document in the retooling and updating of
the various plans, programs, and budgetary allocations of the Municipality. Particularly, it is an
aid in determining the priority projects to be funded from the Municipality’s Development Fund
(which includes the 20% NTA share, non-office MOOE and non-office capital outlays). This means
that the list below excludes:

(1) Services/Non Projects – regular functions of a given office to be performed by the

regular staff of that office using its existing facilities
(2) Regulatory and Legislative Measures;
(3) Personal Service Expenditures; and
(4) Programs and projects to be funded from external sources such as national
government agencies, provincial government, and other available funding agencies.

Following a series of shortlisting and prioritizing of the identified sectoral programs and projects,
the following ranked list of development projects (with the estimated project cost for each)
emerged.

V. Resource Mobilization Strategies

A. Local Revenue and Expenditure Forecast

Based on the local fiscal management performance of the municipality in the last five (5) years,
whilst considering the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in the local economy and the national
tax allocation (NTA), forward estimates of the local revenue and expenditure, including
contractual obligations, were projected for the next three years 2023-2025.

For the revenue forecast, the following assumptions were applied:

• National Tax allocation decreases by 14.47% in 2023 from the contraction of the local
economy due to the pandemic, but gradually increases by 7.5% per year in 2025 and 2026;
• Local revenue target in 2023 shall be Php 34,000,000, increasing 5% annually on 2024 and

B. Resource Mobilization Strategies

As noted in the preceding section, the contraction of the economy due to the pandemic has
ultimately resulted to the decrease in the total share of local governments in the National Tax
Allocation (NTA), to which the Municipality remains to be heavily dependent on. As such, it
becomes essential for the Municipality to boost its local revenue source collections especially
with the need to fully implement all devolved functions and PPAs by the year 2024.

In order to achieve its local revenue targets, the following strategies are proposed to be
undertaken:

On increasing Real Property Tax (RPT) collections:

- Sending Notices of Delinquency to default owners; and
- Strengthening of enforcement including the publication and auctioning off of delinquent
properties.

On increasing Business Tax collections:

- Updating of the Municipal Revenue Code;
- Updating of Comprehensive Land Use Plan to drive expansion of commercial areas;
- Recognition of top taxpayers;
- Implementation of GIS-aided tax mapping for improved monitoring and data analysis;
- Year-round operation of Business One-Stop-Shop/e-BOSS;
- Tax information and education campaign using combination of print and online media and
barangay-to-barangay/caravan;
- Launch of a local development and investment promotion campaign to boost local
entrepreneurship and business confidence including the updating of the Local Investment
and Incentive Code; and
- Improving taxpayer services such as the administration of online payment channels.

On increasing Regulatory Fee collections:

- Updating of the Revenue Code; and
- Strengthening of enforcement including the strict closure of businesses without valid
permits/licenses.

On increasing Service/User Charge collections:

- Updating of the Revenue Code.

On increasing Income from Municipal Economic Enterprises:

- Updating of the Market Code;
- Updating of inventory and performance evaluation of business assets and/or tenants; and
- Development of Local Economic Development and Investment Portfolio with pre-
Feasibility and Financial Analysis for enterprise development.

The timeframe, responsible office/unit, and resource requirements for the implementation of the
above-cited local revenue generation strategies are provided in the following Table.

It should be noted that aside from local revenue generation, the Municipality is open to receive
grants, take out loans, and other forms of financing for the implementation of qualified local
development projects.

VI. Capacity Development Agenda

The capacity development requirements of the Municipality were determined to be able to deliver
the responsibilities including the absorption the additional duties associated with the full
devolution of LGU government functions, services, and facilities.

The process involved an assessment of the current state of capacity of the Municipality to
undertake the required government responsibilities, and how these could possibly be improved.
Needed interventions were summarized and categorized following the DILG Capacity
Development Framework (DILG MC 2021-067) governance capacity pillars: (1) structure, (2)
competencies, (3) management systems, (4) enabling policies, (5) knowledge and learning, and
(6) leadership.

As can be noted, interventions generally involve the institutionalization and hiring of dedicated
staff to implement the functions, services, facilities and PPAs (Pillar: Structure and Enabling
Policy); undertaking training and retraining (Pillar: Competency) to improve service delivery; and
improving program monitoring and evaluation systems (Pillar: Management System).

Identified capacity development requirements, including costs for trainings and hiring of new
personnel were likewise determined.
