6.1.2. EXTENT OF COORDINATION

• Data Management Information System (active data collection, data

banking, and data retrieval procedural systems) has not been run

on a city government-wide level. Presently, only 4 out of the 24

departments are in touch with this system namely: the Treasury,

The Assessor’s Office; the Civil Registry and Office of the Mayor.

Its usefulness therefore, vis-à-vis development planning is still

neither fully unrealized nor appreciated.

• Ideally, the Mayor sets the strategic direction corollary to his vision

and mission. Planning is a team effort among the various

departments. Each department shares in deciding what would be

the most effective and efficient way that the government can serve

its constituents. The Planning and Development Office puts

together all these ideas and presents them to the group for

finalization. In practice, the Planning and Office prepares the

overall plan based on the Mayor’s vision and mission and to

support said plan, requests the various offices for data and

information.

• Coordination between and among offices in terms of project

implementation is based on the contents of the plan laid out by the

CPDO. Each department has its own task in the implementation of

said plan through the programs and projects distributed among the

various offices.

6.1.3 STAFFING

Out of the 654 city government employees, less than 10% are on

temporary status although the number swells in summer due to Student

Privilege Employment System Program (SPES). Majority of the permanent

employees are Civil Service eligible, except for those holding positions

that do not really require eligibility, such as janitorial or utility positions.

Employees are hired based on the need of the Department concerned.

Vacant or newly created positions are advertised in the local newspaper,

“The CSC Field Bulletin”, and posted on Bulletin Board at the City Hall.

Page 40: Chapter vi sw 18

Applicants are screened by the Personnel Selection Board (PSB) and the

most qualified ones are recommended for appointment. The new

employees are then integrated into the system.

6.1.4 PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION AND MONITORING

Projects are normally picked out from requests of the different barangays.

The CPDO also considers those submitted by the departments. Proposed

and requested Infrastructure projects are reviewed and approved by the

Local Development Council before endorsement to Sangguniang

Panlungsod for approval.

After projects have been identified and long listed, the City Planning and

Dev’t Office will prepare the annual investment program for those projects

that will be implemented within the period under planning. This listing will

be forwarded to the City Engineer’s Office for site identification, selection

and inspection. Data gathered will be used for the preparation of the Plans

and estimates or programs of works by its planning and programming

section. It will be returned to the Chief Engineer for review,

recommendation approval.

Upon approval, projects to be funded out of local or CDF funds as well as

those projects requested by the different barangays and which could be

accommodated by available funds will be forwarded to City Mayor for

approval. The Sangguniang Panlungsod will then pass the corresponding

resolution/s for fund allocation. The Budget and Accounting departments

allocate the funds and authorize the CPDO to conduct Bidding. After

contracts have been awarded, monitoring and the implementation will be

undertaken by the City Engineer’s Office.

Project Monitoring is performed by a resident and a project inspector who

visit site daily and twice a week respectively. They are both required to

prepare weekly reports directly to the project engineer.
