        EXPLANATORY NOTE 
This bill seeks to declare Barangay Apad in the Municipality of Jomalig, 
Province of Quezon as a government entity created pursuant to Section 385 of the Local 
Government Code of 1991 . 
Under Section 385 of the Local Government Code, a barangay may be created, 
divided, merged or abolished, or its boundary substantially altered by law or by an 
ordinance of the sangguniang panlalawigan or sangguniang panlunsod, subject to 
approval by majority of the votes cast in a plebiscite to be conducted by the COMELEC in 
the local government unit or units directly affected within such period of time as maybe 
determined by law or ordinance creating said barangay.   
Brgy. Apad used to be part of Brgy. Bukal but influx of people from the nearby 
barangays due to economic activities increases and on the year 1976 people started 
clamoring for the creation of a separate barangay to be formed out of  Brgy. Bukal.  In 
1992 the first set of barangay officials were appointed by the then sitting Mayor. By 
1997 the first set of barangay officials were elected and subsequently assumed office. 
Since then, elections of barangay officials are being held regularly. 
Barangay Apad has a viable socio and economic amenities that could allow 
socio-economic growth as well as development within. 
         In view of the foregoing considerations, approval of this bill is highly and 
earnestly recommended.
