1. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
Carmona, in the olden times was a barrio of Silang. Because of its vast plains, it was called “Latag”, a tagalog word referring to the
geographic characteristics of the place. Early settlers found the area suitable to till the lands and build a community.
In 1823, a movement from Silang started (from the Spanish text from the Arzobispado de Manila believed to be brought about by the settlers
desire to have their own access to religious services). On February 20, 1857 by virtue of a decree issued by then Gov. Gen. Ramon Montero of the
Superior Gobierno delas Islas Filipinas, Latag became a town and named Carmona.
With this recognition came the desire of the people to prove their worth. As they made the soil productive, questions on land ownership
became an issue thus, the agricultural land was declared communal and divided into parcels. These parcels of land were then raffled among the family
heads. Having found the arrangement satisfactory and equitable both to the townspeople and officials, lottery of the lots previously known as Subasta
delas Tierras Communales del Pueblo de Carmona” or “Subasta ng Bukid” became a tradition. Later, the term “SORTEO” was used to denote the unique
practice and tradition in Carmona held every three years where communal
ricelands are raffled among the native citizens of the town and for a period of 3
years the lucky winner of a parcel is recognized as its owner.

The Transformation
In the early 90’s, the Municipality of Carmona was cited to be one of the
priority areas for industrial development in the province. Huge capital outlays
were then channeled to its local government for the development of industrial
estates. This brought about a drastic transformation of its vast landscape into
industrial parks. This rapid development and influx of manufacturing companies
as locators led to profound changes in the lives of the ordinary people of
Carmona.
The increase in municipal revenues and population growth, led to
Carmona’s reclassification as First Class Municipality in July 1996 and also
categorized as a minor urban center in the province of Cavite.

2.5 Water Resources
Carmona falls within the Biñan River Basin. It covers an area of about 81 sq. kms. with an annual rainfall depth over the basin estimated at
2,637 millimeters and an annual surface run-off depth of 1,166 mm. Surface water resources of Carmona is sourced from rivers such as the Carmona
River, Soro-soro, Calabuso, Cahilan, Manawa, Embarkadero, Asuntoy and Pasong Pare as well as from springs in particular Bucal and the Munting Ilog
Spring. The river systems of Carmona are connected to the rivers of Silang and Dasmariñas and empty towards Laguna de Bay. Carmona rivers and its
tributaries are being used as source of water for irrigation purposes. Munting Ilog Spring in Silang flows down to Munting Ilog in Carmona. Munting Ilog
Spring and Carmona River irrigate the agricultural areas of Lantic, Ligdang and Maduya. The Lantic dam located in Barangay Lantic which is composed of
Prinsang Luma and Prinsang Bago derive its water supply from the Carmona River.
The groundwater of Carmona has an average well depth of 116 meters, average static level of 52 meters below ground surface and average
specific capacity of 0.24 liters per second per meter of drawdown (NWRDB Rapid Assessment of Water Supply for Cavite, 1982). As part of the larger
Biñan River Basin, the groundwater of Carmona is characterized as having a recharge of about 8 mcm per year and an annual discharge of 39 mcm.
Groundwater pumpage for the whole basin is computed at 10 mcm per year. It should be noted that based on the same study, the groundwater of
Carmona decreases almost a meter every year.

2.6 Land Use


The existing land uses in Carmona are urban uses such as residential, commercial, institutional, functional open spaces, infrastructure and
utilities, and industrial uses. Other land uses are agricultural, tourism, forest, and cemetery.
A detailed discussion of land uses is presented in Volume 1: The Comprehensive Land Use Plan.

3.1.3 Population Changes


a. Historical Growth of Population
Carmona’s population is continuously increasing with a growth rate pattern not higher than 7% every year. The total population
of Carmona as of 2008 is 64,508 with an average growth rate of 5.78%. The highest growth rate recorded at 6.98% was in 1970 due to
the influx of resettled families from the barrios of San Jose and San Gabriel which became part of Carmona. The decrease in growth
rate in 1980 at 2.68% was due to the creation of these two barrios into the Municipality of General Mariano Alvarez (GMA) under
Proclamation No. 2033.
Censal year with the least average growth rate was in 1948,

b. Crude Birth Rate and Crude Death Rate

Reports from the Municipal Health Office (MHO) revealed that in 2008, there is a Crude Birth Rate (CBR) of 22 livebirths per
1000 population. For the past years, Crude Birth Rate is 21 livebirths per 1000 population for the years 2004-2006 and 22 livebirths per
1000 population for the year 2007. Crude Birth Rate refers to the number of births divided by the midyear population, usually
expressed in terms of thousands. It is the simplest and most commonly used index of fertility.

In 2008, the crude death rate is 4%. Given the period 2004-2008, highest crude death rate was recorded in 2006 with 7%.

3.2 POPULATION PROJECTION AND ESTIMATE

Population projection is a basic requirement in planning. Projections are primarily used as basis for estimating future needs for basic services
such as education and health services, determining level of demand for facilities and utilities, economic-related needs and corresponding spatial
requirements, among others.
By the end of the planning period in 2022, the total population of Carmona is estimated to be 145,334, utilizing the geometric method of
projection. Derived growth rate is 5%. Should the growth rate prevail over the years, the population of Carmona is expected to double in 13 years.
The preceding population projections were utilized in the provision of the spatial requirements of the various sectors.

Total enrollment in both public and private elementary schools is estimated at 8,300 and 612, respectively. This is based on the current
population of children aged 7-12. The total number of teachers in public and private elementary schools are 205 and 60, respectively. These
teachers conduct classes in approximately 173 public school classrooms and 55 classrooms in the private schools. Considering the standard
ratio of 1 teacher per 35 grade school pupils, the existing teacher - pupil ratio in public elementary is 1:40 . In terms of classroom facilities, the
standard classroom pupil - ratio is 1:35, while the existing classroom - pupil ratio in public elementary schools is pegged at 1:48, which is
below the standard . Hence, there is a classroom shortage in the public elementary schools. In private elementary schools, the existing
classroom - pupil ratio is 1:11, more than enough for the pupils to have a comfortable space during class sessions.

Secondary Level
As of 2009 there is only one public high school in the Municipality, the Carmona National High School (CNHS), which absorbs almost all
of the students belonging to the school-going- age population (13-16 years old). The enrollment participation rate is 84%. This is based on the
total enrollment for the secondary level which is 4,376 versus the school-going- age
population of 5,201.
The CNHS has 109 teachers and 61 classrooms, thus the teacher-student ratio is
1:40 while the classroom-student ratio is 1:72. The total number of teachers is just
enough to accommodate the increasing number of enrollees but there is a need for the
construction of additional classrooms in the secondary level within the planning period.

Tertiary Level
There are two (2) tertiary schools in the municipality, one (1) State University and one (1) private college. The Cavite State University-
Carmona Campus (CavSu) has 38 classrooms, 51 fulltime and 41 part-time instructors, with a teacher-student ratio at 1:21 while the classroom-
student ratio stands at 1:50. CavSu offers 4- year academic courses and 2- year diploma courses. For the SY 2009-2010, there were 1,192
enrollees, 824 or 43% male while 1,088 or 57% were female enrollees.

Cavite State University Systems Technology Institute (STI)

Volume 3: THE SECTORAL STUDIES EDUCATION
The Systems Technology Institute (STI) is a private school with 22 classrooms and 46 fulltime instructors, with a teacher-student ratio at
1:20 and classroom-student ratio at 1:42. The institute also offers 4- year Academic and 2- year Diploma Courses. For the School year 2009-
2010, there were 931 enrollees, with 368 or 40% male and 563 or 60% female enrollees.
The Global Technology Learning Center located in Barangay Mabuhay is a private vocational school which only offers 2-year academic
courses under TESDA. For the school year 2009-2010, there were 23 enrollees; 9 male and 14 female enrollees.

4.1.2 Current and Future Needs
As to school facilities, some elementary schools need a laboratory, library, and clinic among others. The existing classroom-pupil ratio is
below the standard; hence there is a need for additional classrooms. Also, teachers are encouraged to attend seminars/ workshops to enhance
their teaching skills.
By the end of the planning period, it is envisioned that with the projected enrollment in both elementary and secondary levels,
additional classrooms will be constructed. Likewise, number of teachers should increase to meet the prescribed standards of the Department of
Education (DepEd).

4.2.3 SOLID AND LIQUID WASTE
4.2.3.1 Current Situation
Data gathered from the Municipal Environment and Natural Resources Office (MENRO) revealed that volume of solid waste
collected in the municipality is 18.28 tons/ day (excluding private subdivisions). These wastes are dumped at the San Pedro Sanitary
Landfill. Biodegradables are collected and brought to Carmona Ecology Center for processing.
Basura Palit Gamit at Iba Pa, a program launched by the Municipal Environment and Natural Resources Office to enhance the
application of proper solid waste management entices citizens to find value in their wastes. Recyclable (e.g as papers, plastics, bottles
or metals) waste stream initially starts from segregation-at-source such as households, other institutions and municipal offices through
the environment officers. The collections are carried out either by garbage collectors, rolling Material Recovery Facility (MRF), 20
Functional MRFs installed in different barangays or even directly to Central MRF. Receiving, weighing, segregating and payment of 30%
commodities (coupons) and 70% cash is done at the Central MRF manned by the personnel in-charge and officers of the day from the
Samahan ng Nagkakaisang Kababaihan ng Carmona, Inc. (SNKCI). The total amount is recorded in the Basura Palit Gamit at Iba Pa
Passbook, where the holder may claim stubs or coupons corresponding to the amount of the recyclables collected. These coupons may
be redeemed in-exchange for basic commodities, school supplies, PTA fee and others.
Industrial establishments have their own private collection system which is collected by private transporters. Residuals and
recyclables emanating from hospitals are also collected. A septic vault within the public and private hospital grounds takes care of
hazardous/ contaminated wastes.
Carmona has no existing comprehensive sewer system, instead, each housing unit is required to have its own septic
tank/leaching chamber before waste-water is released to the storm drainage system. Private extractors are called in whenever septic
tanks reached full capacity. Likewise, industrial establishments are required to have their own water treatment system. To this date,
many industrial establishments have still to comply with the provisions on waste management releasing untreated waste water into the
rivers. Different government agencies are quick to react to this malpractice and a number of violators have been summoned and fined
and/or penalized.

There is a need to intensify environmental projects like the Lingap Paligid, with activities such as river and surrounding clean-
ups, tree planting programs, inspection and monitoring. The Bantay Paligid Program should also aim to monitor and document illegal
dumping of garbage/ industrial wastes to avoid further polluting water bodies that traverse the municipality. This will also establish
proof of violation by companies that continue with their illegal practices.
It is envisioned that by 2022, all households shall have sanitary toilet facilities.

4.3 HOUSING

4.3.1 Current Situation

In 2007, there were 14,023 households occupying 12,320 housing units with a total population of 57,652. The ratio of household to
occupied housing unit is 1.14:1, indicating a backlog of 1,703 housing units with an average number of occupants per household at 4.11 per
household and/or 4.67 occupants per housing unit. The 2008 CBMS household survey report showed a ratio of 1.16:1 household to occupied
housing unit indicating a backlog of 2,107 housing units requiring a 24% increase in the number of housing units. There are 12,778 housing
units currently occupied by 14,885 households with a total of 20,346 families in 2008. With a population of 64,508, household occupants per
household in 2008 increased to 11.89% and the occupants per housing unit increased to 5.1%. By 2009, the projected household population
would have been 66,924 with projected households of 15,442 and 13,257 housing units. This will mean a housing backlog of 2,185, a 3.7%
increase from the 2008 figures for housing needs. However, ratio of household to housing unit remained at 1.16:1 and the ratio of occupants to
housing unit also remained at 5.1.

4.3.1.1 Housing Backlog

The total backlog may be determined by adding the doubled-up households, unacceptable housing units and the
makeshift/salvaged/improvised housing units. The unacceptable housing units around 5% is made up of light and mixed materials and
estimated lost due to obsolescence and annual decay. Using that formula, the total backlog for the year 2009 is 2,982 housing units.

4.3.1.2 Residential Subdivisions


Table 49 shows the Inventory of Residential Subdivisions in 2009. Out of the existing subdivisions, Milagrosa Homes is classified
as the only program on Socialized Housing since the space requirement and cost per unit are affordable to low-income families. With an
aggregate area of 1.3103 hectares (0.75%) and a total of 149 housing units, the density is 115 housing units per hectare. Additional lands are
therefore necessary to develop and accommodate the projected housing demand for low income families in the next ten years. The other
existing subdivisions are either open market or economic type which caters to medium to high income families in and located outside of the
municipality. With that, an increase in the number of families above the poverty threshold is expected. Some 8,223 housing units from these
subdivisions, with an area of 172.95 hectares were already part of the total residential areas of the municipality. The density for this area is 47.5
housing unit per hectare. Presently, there are 8,372 housing units available in these subdivisions, but only 3,612 have been occupied or about
43% of the total number of available housing units. Vacant units were not included in the 2008 Community Based Monitoring System (CBMS)
which only targeted existing households occupying housing units in the municipality.

Phase 4 in Barangay Milagrosa has 735 families living in 639 housing units. These families were tenants from the private lands
in Barangay Cabilang-Baybay who were displaced when the land was developed for commercial and industrial use. The residents of
Phase 3 ½ which has about 405 families in 372 housing units were from the private lands of Macaria Realty where Waltermart is
located. The families from the lands of Manila Southwoods along Governor’s Drive in Barangay Mabuhay were resettled to Milagrosa

4.3.1.4 Housing Facilities and Utilities


Carmona Water District provides water services to 4,507 (34%) households while another 1591 (12%) of households share
subscription of water service with another household. The rest draw water from deep wells that are owned or shared among a number of
households. Other sources of water include artesian wells, dug/shallow wells, river and streams. However only a small number of households
uses water from these sources while another 3,977 (30%) uses bottled water for drinking purposes. A small percentage gets their water supply
from tanker truck peddlers and other unidentified sources.

MERALCO serves about 12,462 or 94% of the total occupied housing units for their lighting and cooking needs while the rest have no
electrical service at all using only kerosene, LPG or candle for lighting and cooking.
Out of 13,257 housing units, 10,871 or 82% have water-sealed flush to sewer/septic tank systems while the other 1,989 or 15% are on a
sharing basis. The rest of the household populace either uses the closed-pit or open-pit system while a few rely on other means of sewerage
disposal.
Almost 91% of all housing units rely on the municipal garbage collectors while 9% resort to burning and dumping of garbage.

4.3.2 Current and Future Needs
With 4,229 available housing units inside residential subdivisions, the shelter needs of an increasing population may have already been
covered if the assumption that majority could afford the cost of the units. The problem however is the households that are below the poverty
threshold and obviously do not have the means to afford the cost of the units available. Hopefully, through the on-going development of new
residential areas, there will be other options that may be considered in providing shelter for these underprivileged households.

recommendation for diversion program. This program was formerly handled by the Senior Social Worker of DSWD Regional Office whose full
responsibility was devolved to the Municipal Social Welfare Office. The rehabilitation center is located at the DILG Building in Brgy. Maduya.
According to MSWDO, based on RA 9344, it is not necessary to put the children in conflict with the law in a rehabilitation center. They
need to render community service as part of juvenile intervention program and will undergo evaluation for DSWD’s recommendations. As of
2009, only one (1) Youth Offender was assisted, kept and rehabilitated in the Juvenile Rehabilitation Center.

5.1 AGRICULTURE – THE PRIMARY SECTOR


5.1.1 Current Situation

The continuous commercialization and industrialization of the municipality has steadily lost portions of its agricultural lands for
different urban developments. In 2007, the 370.5 hectares devoted to agricultural production was reduced to 293 hectares or 79% by
2008. The 2009 year-end report of the Municipal Agriculture Office (MAO) showed otherwise. To compensate for the shrinking
agricultural and pasture lands, several programs and measures were introduced to increase production by 52% and 19% in the year
2008 and 2009 respectively.

5.1.1.1 Crop Production

The production of rice has the biggest with 2,365.8 metric tons, followed by banana with 224.77 metric tons and fruits and
vegetables with 207.73 metric tons, while the least is the root crop production with a volume of 64 metric tons. The total volume of
crop production is 2,984.84 metric tons which are all locally marketed.

Majority of the existing agricultural lands devoted to crop production are found in Barangays Maduya and Lantic with an aggregate
land area of 293 hectares or a mere 9.5 % of the total land area of the municipality. Out of this, 207 hectares or 70.7% of the total
agricultural lands are devoted to rice production, 25 hectares for fruits and vegetables, 4 hectares for root crops, 22 hectares for corn
and 35 hectares for permanent crops like mango and banana.

Table 73 shows that the production area decreased by 11.307 hectares or 4.06% of the total agricultural crop areas
in 2009. On the other hand, the volume of production of all crops except corn and mango increased by an average of 18.9%
in 2009. Despite its relative increase, there is still a big deficit in the actual demand of production.

5.1.1.2 Livestock and Poultry
Most livestock and poultry producers in the municipality are backyard farmers situated in different barangays mostly near the
riverbanks for easy waste disposal. Some of these producers have maintained the volume of their livestock and poultry at the average
sufficiency level of production against actual demand of 23%. Thus, the market for livestock and poultry is localized.

Production of swine showed 468.9 metric tons while its consumption reflected 1,161.4 metric tons, resulting to a deficit of
692.25 metric tons. While in cattle, the local production is 26.98 metric tons versus its consumption of 117.4 metric tons which resulted
to 90.42 metric tons deficit.
Poultry production has a deficit of 497.5 metric tons as computed from the difference of its production of 27.545 metric tons
and its consumption of 525 metric tons. This deficit is hardly felt since supply coming from other towns is constant and always
available within a 15 kilometer radius of the local market.

5.1.2 Support Systems

5.1.2.1 Physical Infrastructure


There are two (2) irrigation systems serving the rice fields of Carmona. One is the three (3)- pump system in Barangay Lantic
with a 2.8 km long canal irrigating an area of approximately 185.5 hectares, while the other is the Maduya irrigation pump (1 pump
system) with 2.7 km of canal irrigating an area of 41.5 hectares. These two systems irrigate a total of 227 hectares of rice lands in two
barangays which are both operated and maintained by the municipality thru the Municipal Agriculture Office with the cooperation of
various farmer groups using the systems. There are also mini dams in Barangay Lantic, which include the Lumang-prinsa Dam located
along the southern boundary of Manila Jockey Club, and the Bagong-prinsa located at the boundary of Lantic and Timbao in Biñan,
Laguna which draw water from the Biñan River. Upland farmers depend on seasonal rain to irrigate their crops and/or farmers
sometimes shift to crops that do not require a lot of water during dry season.
The existing farm to market road with 14.37666 kilometers is adequate enough to service the transport of agricultural
products. About 54% or 7.76 kilometers of road are paved while the remaining 46% or 6.61 kilometers are still rough roads. The rough
roads are located at the highland portion of the municipality specifically in Paligawan-Davilan area in Barangay Lantic.

5.1.2.2 Credit and Finance


The municipality supports the agriculture sector with different programs such as Fertilizer Subsidy Program were fertilizer costs
are being shouldered by the local government, donation of seeds from the provincial government and the Plant Now, Pay Later
Program of the Priority Development Assistant Fund of Congressman Pidi Barzaga to free farmers from the burden of shouldering the
cost of production. The Farmer’s Cooperative was created to allow farmers to help each other in the form of financial, equipment and
manpower support as well as the transport and dispersal of produce to local markets.
Agricultural produce usually go directly to the local market since no substantial portion of the produce has ever been exported
because of the big deficit in production against the actual demand. This is the result of the dwindling allocation of land for crop
production due to conversion of agricultural lands brought about by the rapid industrialization of the municipality.

103
Volume 3: THE SECTORAL STUDIES AGRICULTURE
The rice produced are sold to rice millers in Carmona and Biñan, Laguna and eventually dispersed to the local markets of
Carmona and Biñan. Part of their harvest goes directly to the farmers themselves as payment or share in the farming work. Crops like
fruits & vegetables, root crops, corn, mango and banana are sold directly by farmers to the market or to individual buyers.

5.1.2.3 Employment and Income by Activity


There are 438 farmers in Carmona, 167 of whom are farm workers, 142 are crop farmers, 88 are livestock farmers, 33 are rice
farmers, and 8 are poultry farmers. Farming activities are concentrated at barangays Lantic, Maduya, Cabilang Baybay, Bancal and
Milagrosa except for livestock and poultry which could also be found in the Poblacion area.

5.2.1.2 Future Needs
In 2009, Carmona with a population of 75,377 only required 54 hectares for industrial development covering light
industries and 167 hectares for medium industries. With population projected to reach almost 145,334 by 2022, projections

During the turn of the decade, Carmona envisioned the rise of high-end tourism facilities and residential development alongside the
arrival of foreign and local investors in the municipality. This complemented the establishment of huge manufacturing companies brought in by
Taiwanese, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, American and European investors.

Note that the tourist destinations in Carmona are dedicated to sporting events, unless visitors are here for tournaments, they would
not really stay overnight. Moreover, public transportation plying the Governor’s Drive operates from 4:00 in the morning until 10:00 in the
evening. Bars and restaurants are concentrated in Barangay Maduya particularly in Paseo de Carmona.

Tourism has contributed much to the local economy. In 2009, it contributed a total of P3,749,654.23 to the local revenue which is
roughly 2% of the municipality’s total revenue.

San Lazaro Leisure and Business Park which houses the Manila Jockey Club and Casino facilities registered the biggest income among
the five attractions amounting to P2,540,258.54 for the year 2009. The Manila Southwoods Golf and Country Club follows as the second biggest
contributor with P1,630,815.07 in 2009. The revenues of the above-mentioned establishments enjoy an increasing trend since 2007.

In 2008, these establishments employed 9.81% of the total manpower of Carmona.

Volume 3: THE SECTORAL STUDIES TOURISM

Relatively, Carmona is still a neophyte when it comes to tourism and its promotion due to several reasons like lack of a solid marketing
strategy that packages Carmona as a premier destination for high-end markets; the exclusivity of some establishments to members, enthusiasts
and the “can-afford” demographic; and the non-accreditation of some tourist accommodation/ destination in the Department of Tourism
(DOT).

The surveyors, during the conduct of this survey, faced difficulty to extract tourist arrival date from the smaller establishments like
Ahn’s Baseball Academy, Carmona Racing Circuit and Viewfort Terrace View Hill because arrival of tourists in these establishments are very
seasonal. For Ahn’s Baseball Academy, tourists from Korea arrive only during cold season. For the Carmona Racing Circuit, tourists came during
Karting or Motorsports events. While the Viewfort Terrace View Hill attracts guests who come for conferences or for short leisure breaks.

On the other hand, the Manila Southwoods Golf and Country Club and the San Lazaro Leisure and Business Park have established
mechanisms of tallying tourist arrivals for their corporate reports. The Manila Southwoods Golf and Country Club has, however, exclusivity for
its members-shareholders, which, as of 2009 has reached to 1,904. It is also open to foreign visitors through their partner travel agencies
abroad; as well as, to local and international competitions. On the other hand, the San Lazaro Leisure and Business Park is open to the public
and registers the biggest number of arrivals among the five establishments.

As said earlier, Carmona’s investors are mostly Asians – Taiwanese Chinese, Japanese and Koreans. In effect, these nationalities are also
the foreign clientele of the above-mentioned establishments. In particular, majority of the clients of the Ahn’s Baseball Academy are Koreans,
while Carmona Racing Circuit’s clients are Asian and European karting participants.

There are two cultural and tourism activities facilitated by the Local Government of Carmona. First is the Sorteo Festival which is
celebrated every three years. Sorteo Festival is a week-long festivity which showcases the best of Carmona’s people and traditions, particularly
the unique Sorteo ng Bukid ng Bayan. During its run in February 2010, more than 1,000 people from neighboring towns and Manila came to
witness the festivities.

On the other hand, the Investors’ Cultural Night is staged annually to allow locals and foreigners in Carmona to learn more about each
nation’s culture and identity. During this event, Filipinos, Taiwanese, Chinese and Koreans present their culture and history through live
performances.

Carmona’s multi-awarded Ecology Center is taps as Lakbay Aral destination to other Local Government Units. Ecology Center houses
the municipality’s Central Material Recovery Facility, Composting and Vermi-composting facilities, Transfer Station, Carmona Livelihood Center,
Mini-nursery garden and green spaces. Upon the completion of the new Organic Demo Farm at the Ecology Center compound, the Local
Government will focus on marketing the Ecology Center as an eco-tourism destination which will also showcase the products made out of
waste materials.

Carmona, Cavite Integrated Shooters (CCIS) Firing Range is also seen as a potential tourism attraction like the Ahn’s Baseball Academy.
CCIS offers marksmanship enthusiasts a secluded and scenic location to practice their hobby. However, the management has to open its door
to non-members and visitors to attract newcomers.

5.4.2 Current and Future Needs

There is a need to allocate land for eco-tourism development. These include places for biking, trekking/ hiking, camping, sight-seeing
and other activities for local and foreign tourism. There shall be linkages to major roads through development of all abandoned roads.

The local government must strengthen its promotional and market networking with mainstream tourism and the partnership with DOT
for promotion and market development.

5.5 INFRASTRUCTURE AND UTILITIES

5.5.1 Transportation

Carmona is accessible thru land travel from all directions. It is at the crossroads from north to south between Cavite and Laguna as well
as the gateway to the southern provinces of the region and beyond. From Carmona Public Market Terminal, Jeepney routes from Carmona to
Biñan and GMA/Dasmariñas are available via the provincial road Governor’s Drive and the National Highway. Bus and Jeepney trips to Alabang,
Manila and Calamba are available going thru the South Expressway and Biñan thru the national roads. San Pedro, Laguna is also accessible thru
Southwoods Drive in Barangay Cabilang-Baybay while the inner barangays of Biñan, Laguna, Laguna Technopark and Laguna International
Industrial Park (LIIP) may be accessed thru Dahlia Street and Mayor’s Boulevard. Tagaytay is easily accessed thru Maguyam Road which
connects to Aguinaldo Highway in Silang, Cavite.
The average travel time within a 30 kilometer zone is about 30 minutes without traffic. Increasing traffic volume has made trips in all
direction longer than the normal travel time due to the limited carrying capacity of the major road systems. New access points to and from the
municipality is a priority and several old roads have been improved while new ones laid to provide additional access. The old Sugar road is a
good choice for a new north-south access via Southwoods Drive and South Expressway to Sta. Rosa and Canlubang via Loma in Biñan, Laguna.
The rough roads of Paligawan is also an ideal route going to Silang and Tagaytay City if it could be connected to Sugar road and/or Mayor’s
Boulevard. Another South Express exit linking Mayor’s Boulevard is another alternative considered to ease the huge traffic at the Philippine
National Construction Corporation (PNCC) toll exit during rush hours.
A major concern is the carrying capacity of the internal road system due to encroachment, increased volume of traffic to include
undisciplined and erring tricycle drivers. Going to and from one barangay to another has become a burden in the efficiency of traffic flow due to
these factors.

5.5.1.1.2 Bridges
The Municipality of Carmona, Cavite has a total of 18 major and minor bridges comprising 2 provincial/national bridges, 5
municipal bridges, 4 barangay bridges, 2 foot bridges and 5 privately-owned
bridges inside subdivision access. Thirteen (13) of these bridges are made of
reinforced concrete while the rest are both steel and asphalt or pure steel. All are
passable but some bridges like the Carmona-GMA bridge and Maduya-Soro-Soro
bridge need to be repaired and perhaps widened. Cityland-Mabuhay bridge needs
to be expanded to accommodate the widening and excavation of the tributary of
Carmona river which is now only about waist-deep because of silt from upstream
and debris as well as garbage. Map 3 : Location of the existing bridges in

5.5.1.1.3 Transport Facilities
There is only one transport terminal in the municipality located at the Carmona Public Market where five (5) Public Utility
Jeepney (PUJ) Groups are operating. These are the CPM JODAI plying the GMA-Carmona-Alabang route with 14 vehicles, GMA
Transport COOP plying the Alabang-GMA route with 140 vehicles, Carmona Biñan Jeepney Operators & Drivers’ Multi-Purpose Coop
(UTAC) plying the Carmona-Biñan route with 150 vehicles, San Jose SJ JODAI plying the San Jose, GMA route with 15 vehicles and the
TIMBAO group plying the Timbao-Carmona-Biñan route with 60 vehicles.
Five (5) bus companies namely: Biñan Bus Line (BBL), Jam Transit Corp, JUAYMAH Bus Line, Metro Coastal Transport Inc, and
JRMS uses the terminal with 2 trips each for Manila commuters every 6:00 am to 8:00 am daily. However buses of the same companies
coming from the main terminal of Biñan, Laguna and Pacita in San Pedro, Laguna make a 5-minute pick-up stop in-front of Paseo de
Carmona regularly before entering South Luzon Expressway (SLEX) for Manila and Quezon City routes within 24 hours. One hundred
thirty five (135) shuttle buses and mini-vans use the CPM terminal to service commuter workers of Laguna Techno Park and LIIP in
Barangay Loma, Biñan, Laguna. There are at least 18 shuttle service groups with a total of 85 vehicles making 510 trips a day or 3 round
trip shifts. Also, there are eighteen (18) tricycle associations plying the internal routes of Carmona. The total number of members and
tricycle units plying the routes all over Carmona is 2,198.
These represent the public transport facilities; however, there is no data available on the number of privately-owned vehicles in
Carmona. A JICA-Assisted 2005 Traffic Count Survey estimates that at least 28,758 private & public vehicles pass thru Carmona Exit
Junction in a 24 hour count. One hundred twenty six thousand twenty three (126,023) vehicles pass thru Southwoods to Carmona on
the same time frame and 35,064 vehicles passes thru the Carmona-GMA Bridge in Bancal in a 24-hour count.

5.5.1.1.4 Flood Control and Drainage Facilities
Most of the barangays have existing storm drainage systems running along the streets of the municipality. It consists mainly of
reinforced concrete pipes, lined and unlined open canals and reinforced concrete rectangular culvert or the box type canals. Since
Poblacion area is prone to flooding due to the natural grade of the area and the lack of planning during the 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s
developments, the municipality embarked on a comprehensive program of developing a drainage system that can cope with the fast
growing problem of flooding during the late 90’s up to the present. The municipality has now two (2) main storm drainage pipes that
can handle vast amount of storm water. One is the 245-meter long, 1.5-2 meter- diameter underground pipe along Purificacion Street.
It runs from the existing creek in Barangays 7 and 8 draining to the Carmona River. The other drainage pipe is the 120-meter long, 2 –
meter-diameter underground pipe along Tenedero Street running from Magallanes Street and draining to the existing creek in
Barangay 2 which eventually drains to Carmona River. There is a comprehensive plan to rehabilitate and relieve the existing canals in
Barangay 8 and Sitio Bulangan of floodwaters coming from Carmona Elementary School and Carmona National High School. However,
the project has yet to start due to financial constraints. The total length of the municipality’s drainage system is 142.17 km. of which
20.61 kms. or 4% is covered with concrete hollow blocks (CHB), 19.65 kms or 13.8%. is open CHB, 100.68 kms or 70.8% is reinforced
concrete pipe(RCP) and 1.23 kms or 1.4% are natural creeks and canals. However, there are still 25 kms. of road in some barangays that
have no drainage canals especially in parts of Barangays 9, 11, 12, 13 & 14.

would have been 245, 381 mw. By the year 2022, Carmona will consume about 36,532 mw or more every year. The need to explore
other forms of power generation should be initiated like solar power, mini-hydro power generation, windmills, etc. to avoid
encountering problems in future power needs. Garbage is a potential source of cheap gasses that maybe used for power generation.

5.5.3.1 Domestic Water Supply
5.5.3.1.1 Current Situation

Carmona Water District serves 4,982 (34%) households while another 1,848 (12%) share subscription of water with another
household. The rest draw water from deep wells that are either owned or shared among households. Only a small number of
households use water from artesian wells, and or dug/shallow well, river and streams, while another 4,450 households (30%) use
bottled water for drinking. A small percentage sourced their water from tanker truck peddlers and other unidentified sources. These
figures only represent the 14,885 households in Carmona. Commercial and Industrial establishments operating in the municipality are
not included in the counts. Some of these commercial and industrial establishments use water 100 times more than 20 households in a
single day. According to a Swedish study of the municipality’s water table, indicated that supply may last until 2015 if the rate of
development does not slow down. Rapid expansion of residential, commercial and industrial districts has strained the municipality’s
water retaining capacity. Unless addressed immediately, water will soon be rationed in Carmona which may affect the local economy.

5.5.3.1.2 Current and Future Needs

In 2009, the number of households served by the water district reached 7,813 or 48.72% of the total household with an
increase of 11.16% as compared from the previous year 2008. Using the household projection for 2010-2022, the total
households that will need water service may reach 24,905. The average annual consumption is 240 cu.m per household, which
means that there is a need for the Carmona Water District to upgrade their drawing capacity to a total of 5,977,200 cu.m. per
year.
5.5.4 Waste Disposal Facilities
5.5.4.1 Current Situation
5.5.4.1.1 Solid Waste
The 2009 report of MENRO shows that frequency of solid waste collection increased at an average of 32% or 5,175
trips. The department that 20,220 cu.meters of residual waste were disposed and 2,156 kg. of biodegradable wastes collected
from households. The Carmona Ecology Center processed 35,798 kg of biodegradable wastes producing some 2,875 kg of
composting materials. With the “Basura Palit Gamit Project”, MENRO collected 239,106 kg of recyclable materials, redeemed
2,210 coupons and exchanged 953 pcs of canned goods, 1,210 pcs of condiments, 4,323 packs of milk, coffee, juice, etc., 3,905
of toiletries, 11,422 bottles of cooking oil, and 2,461 pcs of noodles. Industrial establishments operate their own private
collection system and their waste is collected by private transporters from the municipality. Recyclables are being collected by
private scrap buyers from different parts of the region.
Other environmental projects of MENRO include the Lingap-Paligid with clean-up activities, tree-planting programs,
river clean-ups and inspection/monitoring. Another is the Bantay-Paligid program where illegal dumping is monitored.

5.5.4.1.2 Liquid Waste
There is no existing comprehensive sewer system in the municipality, rather, each housing unit is required to have its
own septic tank/leaching chamber before waste-water is released to the storm drainage system. Private extractors are called in
whenever septic tanks have reached full capacity. Likewise, industrial establishments are required to have their own water
treatment system. To date, some industrial establishments have not complied with the provision and deliberately release
untreated waste-water polluting the rivers. Different government agencies are quick to respond to this malpractice and a large
number of violators have been summoned and fined and/or penalized.

5.5.4.2 Current and Future Needs

5.5.4.2.1 Solid Waste


The current projected solid waste generated will reach 20, 988 cu.m. using the 2008 average of 1.31 cu.m. per
household per year or 5,368 trips at the capacity rate of 3.91 cu.m. per trip. Projected household population by year 2022 is at
24,905 which are expected to generate 32,626 cu.m. of residual wastes or 8,344 trips per year. However, by the year 2022, the
current facility for collecting wastes will no longer be enough. Thus, there is a need for replacement/ acquisition of additional
trucks with improved carrying capacity to reduce cost of transporting.

5.5.4.2.2 Liquid Waste


The growing household population as well as the increasing industrial and commercial establishments in Carmona calls
for the creation of liquid waste recycling facility along with its own agency/ entity that will manage the collection and recycling
of all liquid waste being generated by the community. This is to keep harmful liquid materials/ chemicals from being dumped
into the river system by industrial establishments and to try to conserve water consumption by recovering/ recycling as much
water from this liquid waste.

5.5.5 Information and Communication Technology

5.5.5.1 Current Situation


The Philpost operates the municipal postal service located inside the municipal compound of Carmona. It has 7 personnel
composed of 1 postmaster, 3 postmen and 3 tellers, 2 of whom are permanent employees, 3 casuals and 2 contractual. Delivery of mail
is done by motorcycle to all 14 barangays on a daily basis. An average of 17,000 mails were processed, 4,000 (24%) outgoing mails and
13,000 (76%) incoming mails per month. The total volume of mails processed in 2009 was 152,000.
About 90% of the total households in Carmona own television units. All television and radio stations from Manila have clear
reception signals in Carmona. Newspapers, magazines, books and other reading materials are also available. Majority of the household
also uses DVD/CD players to enjoy any kind of entertainment, both in audio and video form.
PLDT is the major telephone provider in Carmona with 1,918 subscribers, while DIGITEL share a minimum subscription of only
67 subscriptions. However, the municipal survey of 2007 reported that about 5,355 households have either one (1) or more members
using cell phones. There are eight (8) Telecom (cellphone) relay
antenna towers in Carmona six of these are owned by Globe: 3 in Brgy
Maduya in Cabilang-Baybay and 2 in Bancal. One is owned by Smart in
Maduya while the other is owned by Infocom in Brgy. Mabuhay. Two-
way radios are also used by a number of household for their
communication. A VHF repeater station tower located at Brgy. Bancal
increases the range of radio communication between local
government agencies.

5.5.5.2 Current and Future Needs


The telecommunication facility in Carmona has a combined range of 16 sq.km. at the minimum range for each cell site of 0.8
km radius or 2 sq.km. of area coverage. This means that to cover the entire 30.92 sq.km. area of the municipality, 15 cell sites at 1.6 km
regular interval should be constructed. Since the concentration of the sites were located in Maduya, Mabuhay, Cabilang Baybay and
Bancal, it is quite logical to cover the areas of Lantic and the highlands between Bancal and Lantic to compensate for the lack of signal
in these areas especially now that the residential areas of Lantic is fast expanding.

5.5.6.1 Current Situation

5.5.6.1.1 Slaughterhouse

There is no existing municipal slaughterhouse in Carmona, rather, meat and poultry comes from the slaughterhouses in Biñan,
Laguna. However the municipality has a meat inspector that performs daily inspection of the incoming products to make sure that
every meat and poultry passes the standards before being sold to the public.

5.5.6.1.2 Public Market

The Carmona Public Market (CPM) was established in year 2000. Built on a 2-hectare lot, it is composed of three (3) buildings,
the dry, wet and carinderia buildings. There are 250 stalls being operated by 199 stallholders with a cumulative daily rental of Php
21,366.25. It was designed to make the management of the market more efficient. It has its own road network and terminal facility.
Power is supplied by Meralco while Carmona Water District provides for the water supply of the establishment. It caters to both the
community of Carmona and the nearby barangays of Biñan, Laguna as well as GMA, Cavite. The CPM is managed by the Municipal
Treasurer’s Office, while security is handled by Civil Security Unit. The Engineering office takes care of the maintenance and repair of all
public market facilities. Traffic is managed by the Carmona Traffic Management Office (CARTMO) and all public utility vehicles serving
the public market is registered at the LTFRB.

5.5.6.2 Current & Future Needs

5.5.6.2.1 Slaughterhouse

The need for a slaughterhouse is important in the regulation of meat products being consumed in Carmona. It will ensure that
the quality of meat being consumed is of high quality and safe from diseases. With the current projected demand for meat at about
1,941 metric tons or 1,941,000 kilograms, proper inspection and slaughtering of animals for consumption should be centralized and

155
Volume 3: THE SECTORAL STUDIES INFRASTRUCTURE AND UTILITIES
efficient enough for the few inspectors to handle the daily requirement which is about 161,750 kilograms. By 2022, the projected
volume of meat consumption will reach 3,017,874.68 kilograms or 3,017.87 metric tons with 48% increase.

5.5.6.2.2 Public Market

The marketing population calls for the improvement of public market facilities. The improvement lies in the regular
maintenance of roads and parking areas, better traffic circulation, safety of consumers, cleanliness of vicinity, ease of passing thru the
entire market facility in finding what they need and the availability of goods whenever they need it. The problem with fresh supply and
the higher prices of the products against other public market needs to be addressed to be competitive. Over-all, innovative
administration techniques will be a key factor.
