EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill seeks the division of Barangay North Bay Boulevad South in Navotas
City into three (3) distinct and independent barangays to be known as Barangay
North Bay Boulevard South 1, Barangay North Bay Boulevard South 2, Barangay
North Bay Boulevard South 3.

Barangay North Bay Boulevard South only has 1,600,622.44 square meters of
land area, but its population of 67,730 ranks FIRST among the Barangays of
Navotas City. Peace and order is becoming more and more difficult to maintain
within the continuing growing population of Barangay North Bay Boulevard South,
Further, the densely populated area will result to uneven delivery of basic services
to the affected residents.

Thus, the people of Barangay North Bay Boulevard South are actively calling
for the division of their Barangay into three considering the benefits it may bring to
them.

In view thereof, the passage of this measure is earnestly sfrged.
