EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill seeks the division of Barangay Tangos in Navotas City into two
(2) distinct and independent barangays to be known as Barangay Tangos
North and Barangay Tangos South.

Barangay Tangos has 364,501.74 square meters of land area. Its
population of 33,211 ranks SECOND among the Barangays of Navotas City.
Peace and order is becoming more difficult to maintain within the continuing
growing population of Barangay Tangos. Further, the densely populated area
will result to uneven delivery of basic services to the affected residents.

Thus, the people of Barangay Tangos are actively calling for the division
of their Barangay into two considering the benefits it may bring to them.

In view thereof, the passage of this measure is eafnestly urged.
