ILOILO CITY
Iloilo City is a highly urbanized city on the southeastern tip of Panay island in
the Philippines. It is the capital city of the province of Iloilo where it is geographically
situated but, in terms of government and administration, it is politically independent. In
addition, it is the center of the Iloilo-Guimaras Metropolitan Area, as well as the regional
center and primate city of the Western Visayas region. In the 2015 census, Iloilo City had
a population of 447,992 inhabitants, with a 1.02% population annual growth rate.[4] For
the metropolitan area, the total population is 946,146 inhabitants.
The city is divided into seven geographical districts. All of the districts were once
individual towns, excluding Lapuz, which was a sub-district of La Paz until 2008. They
were merged into one city on August 25, 1937, when the current Iloilo City inaugurated
as a charter city. All districts have their own town centers complete with a plaza, a
Roman Catholic church, a fire station, a police station and a public market. City Proper
is a commercial area and the political center of the city and the Province of Iloilo and
the Regional Government Center of Western Visayas.
Iloilo City is the center of the only officially recognized Metropolitan Area in
Western Visayas.[a] The metropolitan area is composed of the City of Iloilo, the
municipalities of Leganes, Pavia, Sta. Barbara, Cabatuan, San Miguel, Oton, the Island
Province of Guimaras and its five municipalities, namely - Sibunag, San Lorenzo, Nueva
Valencia, Buenavista and Jordan.
The city of Iloilo has only one legislative district and is subdivided into
180 barangays.
Iloilo City has a tropical wet and dry climate as according to the Köppen climate
classification system, with pronounced wet season from June throughout November; then
dry season from December to May.
Iloilo City's urban planning and architecture reflect the plans of the Spanish and
the American colonial administrations. Since Iloilo City is a conglomeration of towns, the
districts have their own plazas which are surrounded by establishments of political and
ecclesiastical influence, such as churches and old administrative halls. In 1930, Juan M.
Arellano of the Bureau of Public Works designed the schematic plan for Iloilo City, which
was influenced by Ebenezer Howard's "Garden City."
The city has been a champion in air quality initiatives that further implied when in
won in the 2017 ‘’Clean Air City Award’’ given by the Clean Air Philippine Movement. The
award is given to urban centers and cities whose initiatives in good urban planning is to
maintain a good air quality for its citizens to be a more livable and air pollution Philippines
cities.
Iloilo City is a hub for trade, commerce, finance, technology, medical tourism,
hospitality, real estate, tourism, education, and industry in the Western Visayas region.
Major industries in the city include management of port facilities, telecommunications
infrastructure and utilities, banking and finance, retail trading, real estate, tourism
and business process outsourcing. The local government has provided incentives to
businesses in certain investment areas, such as income tax holidays and free issuance of
permits and licenses.[109] It is the home of Mang Inasal headquartered in Iloilo. Iloilo City
is served mostly by passenger jeepneys, white metered taxis and tricycles within the city
limits. The passad jeepneys of Iloilo are known for their sleek and sedan-like design.
These often serve fixed routes and mostly travel on the city's major and secondary roads.
Jeepneys are also the main mode of transportation to Metropolitan Iloilo areas. Tricycles
serve most secondary roads and city communities. Large passad jeepneys and buses link
Iloilo City to the rest of the province and the island of Panay. Buses bound for Metro
Manila, Mindoro, Batangas, Cebu, Negros and Mindanao are also available via the Roll-
on, Roll-off ferry services of the Strong Republic Nautical Highway. Mini-shuttle vans also
serve major points in Panay Island. Iloilo is one of the few cities in the Philippines that
recently initiated to adopt the mini-bus like type modern PUJ or modern Jeepneys in
contrast to the President Rodrigo Duterte's administration to phase out the old dilapidated
jeepneys as the mode of mass public transportation in the Philippines.

BANCAL, CARLES, ILOILO CITY

Carles, officially the Municipality of Carles, is a 2nd class municipality in
the province of Iloilo, Philippines. According to the 2015 census, it has a population of
68,160 people.
 Carles is the 14th wealthiest town in Iloilo (based on income) in 2009, with an
income total of P70,475,987 (2009) [7] The agricultural produce of the town includes fish,
prawn, crab, rice, corn, sugar, cattle and poultry. Other industries include bakeries, shell
craft and wood furniture.

PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT

A planned unit development (PUD) is a type of building development and also a
regulatory process. As a building development, it is a designed grouping of both varied
and compatible land uses, such as housing, recreation, commercial centers,
and industrial parks, all within one contained development or subdivision.
A special type of subdivision that does not need to comply with all standard zoning
and subdivision regulations.
PUD as a regulatory process is a means of land regulation which promotes large
scale, unified land development by means of mid-range, realistic programs in chase of
physically curable, social and economic deficiencies in land and cityscapes. Where
appropriate, this development control promotes:

 A mixture of both land uses and dwelling types with at least one of the land uses
being regional in nature
 The clustering of residential land uses providing public and common open space
 Increased administrative discretion to a local professional planning staff while
setting aside present land use regulations and rigid plat approval processes
 The enhancement of the bargaining process between the developer and
government municipalities which in turn strengthens the municipality's site plan
review and control over development for potentially increased profits due to land
efficiency, multiple land uses, and increased residential densities.
 Frequently, PUDs take on a variety of forms ranging from small clusters of houses
combined with open spaces to new and developing towns with thousands of residents
and various land uses. However, the definition of a PUD does not take into
consideration these types of developments unless they fit into a category of size
ranging from 100 to 200 acres (40 to 81 ha). In a PUD the property owner owns the
land the dwelling sits on.
In PUDs, the zoning of districts becomes very different from what was standard
under the Standard Zoning Enabling Act. Historically, the districts were very narrow in
type and large in area. Within PUDs, zoning becomes much more integrated with
multiple land uses and districts being placed on adjacent land parcels.
Residential properties in PUDs are by far the most numerous and occupy the largest
land areas. PUDs tend to incorporate single-family residential uses in proximity to two-
family units and multiple-family dwellings to form a larger diversified neighborhood
concept. Schools, churches, retirement homes, hospitals, and recreation facilities begin
to find their way into residential districts. Residential districts also tend to use the best
land in the community and the most favorable sites are protected from commercial and
industrial uses.
Grouping shopping districts by service area is a first step in returning to the
neighborhood concept. Land is reserved for regional, community, and local shopping
clusters with some specific restrictions based on market experience and on what types
of business intend to locate at each development. Local shopping districts with
sufficient provisions for off-street parking, height restrictions, and traffic control are not
frequently found surrounded by residential areas.
Industrial standards now help to reduce the journey for employees to work.
Nowadays, there tends to be environmental and performance regulations that cut back
on the amount of nuisance to surrounding areas adjacent to industrial districts. With
sufficient setbacks, off-street parking, and height regulations, industrial locations
adjacent to residential zones are usually looked to as an overall community goal. PUDs
do not normally have large numbers of industrial districts, but if so, they tend to be
geared more towards light industry.
A planned residential unit development (PRUD) (sometimes planned unit residential
development (PURD)) is a variant form of PUD where common areas are owned by the
individual homeowners and not a homeowners association or other entity. A PURD is
considered the same as a PUD for planning commission purposes and allows for
flexibility in zoning and civic planning.
Houses and placement of houses
Houses in PUDs often include access to a large shared open space surrounding the
house as well as a smaller private yard. These large protected open spaces are created
by the layout of the buildings and are intended for use by all residents of the
developments. Different housing types (single-family, two-family, multiple-family) are
often mixed rather than separated as is done in conventional development
Streets
Street patterns are one of the most important elements in establishing the
neighborhood character of a residential community. Most non-PUD development
focuses on obtaining maximum frontage for lot sizes and maximum flow of traffic on all
streets. However, in order to dispel the monotony of the typical grid plan street pattern,
PUDs often employ a hierarchy of street types based on usage. Local streets serve only
residences and have a low traffic volume, while collector streets connect local streets to
arterials, which are the major routes of travel throughout a PUD.
Sidewalks and pedestrian ways
Sidewalks and pedestrian ways of PUDs supplement and complement street systems in
establishing the character of the neighborhood. Sidewalks are located on at least one
side of every street to enable the walkability of the developments. Circulation systems
are provided to link residential groupings, open space areas, schools, and local
shopping areas.
Combining design features
It is in the ability to design each of these components simultaneously that makes PUDs
unique and effective. Each of the elements work together to enhance the whole. This
represents a major advantage over traditional zoning practices that force lots to be
planned in accordance with broad rules that may allow for some incompatibility.

AIM OF THIS
PROPOSAL
The aim of this proposal is to
further improve the life and bring
urbanization to provinces such as
Iloilo. This proposal aims to give
importance to the improvement
of human life by developing
residential spaces with
commercial establishments
bigger than that of subdivisions,
mixed used establishments for
work opportunities, and
numerous parks and green areas
for the conservation of the
natural environment.
