The council required the CDC and the City Planning and Development Office (CPDO) to submit to the council documents of each program/project for further review.
The council also requested the CDC and the CPDO to submit guidelines on how projects are prioritized and included in the AIP.
Created by virtue of Section 107(b-4) of the Local Government Code, the CDC is responsible for the formulation, management, and monitoring of development plans and public investment programs of the city government.
It is a multi-stakeholder body that sets the course and long term development initiatives emanating from community-driven needs and using public and private resources.
The mayor serves as the CDC chairperson. Members are the sanggunian’s chairperson of the committee on appropriations and finance, the representative of the lone district of Baguio, the 128 punong barangays, and representatives of accredited non-government/private/civil/society organizations and cooperatives. – Jordan G.
