LGU Kapalong launches Executive-Legislative Agenda

KAPALONG, DAVAO DEL NORTE, January 7, 2014 (PIA) - The Municipal Government of Kapalong  launched its Executive-Legislative Agenda highlighted with a covenant signing among its stakeholders on December 27, 2013 at the SB Session Hall.

Stakeholders representing the different sectors in the municipality who have been instrumental during the  formulation process were all present along with the department and section heads, barangay officials and  municipal officials headed by Mayor Edgardo L. Timbol.

Vice Mayor  Ma. Theresa R. Timbol in her message stressed that the  Executive-Legislative Agenda (ELA) resembles  a powerful tool for effective local governance.

VM Timbol further stressed that she was happy that finally the executive and legislative departments came up with a 3-year development thrust and priorities in line with their common vision, mission and goals for the municipality.
Moreover, the vice mayor also mentioned that the ELA serves as their performance management device which would encourage them to aim for greater results particularly in crafting ordinances in support to the  executive department’s program of government.

The ELA was inspired with its working philosophy, The ELT THRUST : “Economic and Leadership Transformation Driven with Transparent, Honest, Responsive and Unwavering Services Committed to the Trust of the People”.

As a planning document, it covers a 3-year period of plans and programs which corresponds to the term of  our elected municipal officials which they mutually conceptualized and agreed upon with the rest of the stakeholders-participants.

Such accomplishment was even given more significance with the unison reading of the pledge of commitment before the ceremonial signing.

DILG Provincial Director Alex C. Roldan, who served as the facilitator of the series of formulation workshops was also present  with Kapalong MLGOO Jonathan Leybag.

Roldan bared that it was Vice Mayor Timbol who really pushed for the ELA formulation. He  further commended the vice mayor for such passionate interest and enthusiasm.

Mayor Timbol expressed his gratitude to everybody for such another milestone of the local government. He stressed that the realization of the ELA would manifest that his administration is true to his promise of true and sincere governance. (cj-MIO Kapalong)
