PREFACE
As the smallest administrative unit in our local government system, the barangay
holds a pivotal role in providing essential services and fostering a sense of unity and
cooperation among its constituents. The Barangay Development Plan encapsulates our
aspirations, priorities, and strategies to address the evolving needs and challenges of our
community.
This plan is the result of extensive consultations, collaboration, and data analysis
conducted with the active participation of barangay officials, community leaders, and
residents. It reflects our shared vision for sustainable development, social inclusion, and
economic progress.
Within these pages, you will find a holistic framework that outlines key areas of
focus, including infrastructure development, environmental sustainability, livelihood and
employment opportunities, health and education, peace and order, and social welfare. Each
objective is accompanied by targeted actions and timelines to ensure effective
implementation and measurable outcomes.
We recognize that the successful realization of this plan requires the collective
efforts of every member of our barangay. We call upon our fellow residents, private sector
partners, and government agencies to actively contribute their expertise, resources, and
support in achieving our shared objectives.
While this plan provides a roadmap for the next several years, it is also a living
document that can adapt to emerging challenges and opportunities. Regular reviews and
updates will be conducted to ensure its relevance and effectiveness in an ever-changing
environment.

key areas such as infrastructure, environmental sustainability, livelihood and employment,
health and education, peace and order, and social welfare, we aim to create a balanced and
thriving community that meets the needs of present and future generations.

the need to improve and expand our infrastructure. By investing in better roads, bridges,
water systems, and other essential facilities, we enhance connectivity, accessibility, and the
overall quality of life in our barangay. Improved infrastructure also attracts potential
investors and business opportunities, driving economic growth and providing employment
prospects for our residents.

SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS

prone to landslides. In the event of a strong earthquake, the infrastructure in the barangay,
mostly consisting of lightweight houses, there are concrete houses but is unlikely to suffer
major damage. There are area on risk of flooding in Purok II & III of the barangay they are
situated in the lowland area. However, there is a high likelihood of significant damage to
the lightweight houses if a typhoon strikes the barangay.
Infrastructure: While the houses in the barangay are mostly built from light materials, a
strong earthquake can still cause damage to the infrastructure. This includes the risk of
collapse or structural instability, posing potential threats to the safety and well-being of
residents.
Landslides: Although Barangay Magsaysay is not prone to landslides due to its location in
the lowland part of Bobon, it's important to note that heavy rainfall during the rainy season
can still increase the risk of localized slope instability. This can potentially affect certain
areas or terrains within the barangay.
Flooding: There are areas lower than surroundings areas which are prone to flooding
during the prolonged or intense rainfall, localized flooding may occur. This could impact
low-lying areas or areas near water bodies.
It is crucial for the barangay to assess and mitigate these potential impacts through
appropriate disaster preparedness measures, infrastructure reinforcement, and land-use
planning to ensure the safety and resilience of the community.
