DEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK
GENERAL BACKGROUND
HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
Numerous stories and beliefs had passed on through the years regarding how Caloocan came to be known by its present name. The following stands out as the most popular: from its beginning as a humble barrio of the town of Tondo located in a ‘libis’ (lowland), it became known as ‘Libis Espina’ or ‘Aromahan’. Another interesting story tells of Caloocan originating either from the Tagalog word ‘look’ meaning bay or ‘sulok’ meaning corner. Caloocan might have meant ‘nasa sulok’ or in the corner since Caloocan is located where the ends of the old town of Tondo and Tambobong (now Malabon) meet.
At the end of the 18th century, the fishermen of Aromahan climbed the hills to open homesteads in Caloocan. Here, the land was free of thorny plants that infested the banks/ shorelines and although the hill was naturally stony, some form of agriculture was possible and fishermen became farmers.
In 1815, Caloocan was separated from Tondo and became an independent municipality. Its original territory extended to the foothills of Marikina, San Mateo and Montalban in the east; from Tinajeros, Tanza and Tala Rivers in the North; San Francisco del Monte, Sampalok, Sta. Cruz and Tondo in the south; and Dagat-Dagatan or Aromahan in the west. (See Map No. 1 and 2)
Caloocan was part of history, which unfolded during the 1896 Philippine Revolution. The first settlement in Libis Espina, established by oppressed people from Tondo, sought refuge in the thorny shores of Dagat-Dagatan. They climbed the hills for more arable lands only to find out these had titles under the name of the Hacienda de Maysilo. Then they fought their landlords for a hundred years until Andres Bonifacio led them, the Katipuneros, to that fateful day of August 30, 1896 in Balintawak. The Filipino forces in Caloocan participated actively in Intramuros siege of the Spanish forces in Manila until their surrender to the Americans on August 13, 1898. On January 11, 1899, the people of Caloocan showed resistance to coming to terms with the Americans, who were bent on extending their supremacy over the country. When the Americans seized the railroad yards that stood between them and the fleeing Emilio Aguinaldo, the men of Caloocan fought the new invaders on February 23, 1899, in a counter-attack which, but for Gen. Antonio Luna’s rift with Aguinaldo’s loyalists, could have turned the tide of war in favor of a free and independent Philippines.
In 1901, under the American Regime, Caloocan became one of the towns of the Province of Rizal. Due to the consolidation of several municipalities, Novaliches became part of Caloocan pursuant to Act 942, as amended by Acts 984 and 1008 of the Philippine Commission. In 1939, pursuant to Commonwealth Act 502, which created Quezon City as Capital of the Philipines, Caloocan lost the following barrios or sitios, namely: Balingasa, Kaingin, Kangkong, La Loma, Malamig, Matalahib, Masambong, San Isidro, San Jose, Santol and Tatalon.
Map No. G-1 Geographical Location
In 1949, boundaries of Quezon City were redefined pursuant to Republic Act 392 as recommended by the Capital City Planning Commission. Caloocan again lost several barrios, namely: Baesa, Bagbag, Bahay-Toro, Banlat, Novaliches, Pasong Tamo, San Bartolome and Talipapa. This explains why the City of Caloocan has two separate territories. (See Map No. 1)
Then in 1961, the late Mayor Macario B. Asistio, Sr., led the people of Caloocan to turn the historic town into a city through a plebiscite held in accordance with House Bill 6038, which was passed and approved by both chambers of the defunct Philippine Congress.
GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION AND LAND AREA
Caloocan has a combined total land area of 5,333.40 hectares and is located at the northern part of the National
Capital Region (NCR, Region IV-A). The city is divided into two
geographic locations, namely: South Caloocan, with an area of 1,362.50 hectares and North Caloocan, with an area of 3,970.90 hectares. South Caloocan is bounded on the north-northwest by Valenzuela, Malabon and Navotas; on the east by Quezon City; and on the south by the City of Manila. The greatest length, north to south of the boundaries is about six kilometers and the greatest width, east to west is seven kilometers. North Caloocan, on the other hand, is bounded on the north-northwest by the province of Bulacan; on the south-southeast by Quezon City; and southwest by Valenzuela. Its extreme southern boundary is about 1.7 Kilometers apart from the northern extreme boundary of South Caloocan. The greatest length, north to south of the boundaries is eight kilometers and the greatest width, east to west is ten kilometers.
TOPOGRAPHY
SOUTH CALOOCAN
The topography of South Caloocan is characterized to have a westward trend of flat lands covering a land area of about 1,001.64 hectares or 74.25% of the whole southern portion of the city, with slopes ranging from 0% to 3%. Being flat and highly accessible to neighboring cities and municipalities, these broadly level lands cover most of the commercial and industrial establishments in the city. Along the North Diversion Road, the topography of South Caloocan, gradually changes into gently to moderately sloping to rolling, with slopes ranging from 3 to 18%. Adjacent to residential and industrial areas within the sector, vast tracts of land still exist. Also in these areas lies the highest point found to be 35.00 meters above mean sea level, while the lowest is in the southernmost end of Kaunlaran Village (Dagat-Dagatan Development Project) measuring about 0.993 meters above mean sea level.
Map No. G-2 Original Territorial Boundaries
Map No. G-3 Metro Manila Map
NORTH CALOOCAN
Out of the total land area of North Caloocan, 58.49% or 2,322.80 hectares are characterized to have gently to steeply undulating to rolling topography with slopes ranging from 3 to 18%. This terrain is noted in the northern and central portion and gradually transforming into a southward trend of flat lands down to the southwestern tip of the boundary. Several industrial and residential subdivisions have already been developed in these broadly to nearly level lands, because of its proximity to some of the major access roads in the area. The central and northern portions on the other hand, are also known to consist of residential subdivisions dispersed in different areas along with the development of Tala Estate Resettlement Project, which is significant in the
northernmost end of the city. It is with the contours of Tala Estate (part of Pangarap Village) that the highest point of elevation can be traced to be 120.00 meters above mean sea level, while the old district of Kaybiga covers the lowest part to about 25.00 meters above the same index.
CLIMATE
Just like the rest of the towns and cities of Metro Manila, Caloocan City falls under type 1 of the Philippine Climate Classification. The two distinct seasons recognized are the dry high pressure season, which comes in the months of November till April and the wet season, which starts from May and lasts up to October. The dry season corresponds with the northeast monsoon (October to January) and the wet season with the southwest monsoon (June to September). Between these two well-defined monsoon periods, the southeast trade winds blow from February to May. Table No. G – 1 CLIMATOLOGICAL NORMALS Caloocan City (1994) Month Rainfall (mm) Rainy Days

RAINFALL
Since Caloocan is divided into two separate geographical location, two recording stations were considered in the study of the city’s annual rainfall. The recording station in Port Area, Manila was considered for South Caloocan, while the Science Garden in Diliman, Quezon City was for North Caloocan. In 1994, maximum rainfall in North and South Caloocan occur in the months of
July, August and September. The annual rainfall was recorded to be 2,115.90 mm with a maximum of 761.70 mm in July and a minimum of 1.60 mm in February for the South Caloocan. North Caloocan recorded 2,588.70 mm annual rainfall with a maximum of 518.30 mm.
WIND DIRECTION
In South Caloocan, northeast winds prevail during the months of November and December. West wind is predominant in February, March and April. From May to October, the southwest monsoon blows. This procures the heavy rain experienced during that period. Maximum wind speed recorded in South Caloocan was 28 miles per second, which occurs in October. Meanwhile, the north winds prevail during the months of January, March, October, November and December over North Caloocan. From April till July, the southwest monsoon prevails, this explains the heavy rains experienced during these months.

SLOPE
Slope is an important factor in determining the suitability of a land for its future development. Level to moderately sloping areas with good soil characteristics are most suitable for urban development while steeply sloping and rolling lands, highly prone to erosion are considered less favorable for any extensive land development. Utilizing these types of slope require higher development costs and may not be viable for the city’s economy. An estimated 2,158.14 hectares or 40.46% of the city’s total land area are found to be generally level to nearly level with a slope range of 0% to 3%. These slopes characterize most parts of South Caloocan and the southern part of North Caloocan in the old districts of Kaybiga, Llano and Deparo. Some areas are gently to moderately undulating to rolling with a slope range of 3% to 8% and with a covered land area of 1,052.51 hectares or 19.73% of the whole territory. On the other hand, an estimated 1,611.76 hectares of land or 30.22% of the total planning areas are noted to be moderately to steeply undulating to rolling with slopes ranging from 8% to 18%. About 510.98 hectares of land are traced to be very steeply sloping, with a slope range of 18% to 50% representing only 9.58%. (See Map)

SOIL
BASIC SOIL TYPES
Soil found in Caloocan City predominantly fall under the Novaliches series. This series is found in both South and North Caloocan. In area distribution, Novaliches clay loam has the largest coverage with an area of 2, 538.87 hectares or 47.60% of the total land area. This is followed by Novaliches clay loam adobe with an area of 1,195.94 hectares or 22.42% of the total area and Novaliches loam with an area of 869.70 hectares or 16.31% of the total area. In some areas, about 9.79% or 522.25 hectares of land comprises Prensa clay loam type falling under the Prensa series and the remaining 206.64 hectares representing 3.87% of the land area consist of Hydrosol type.
THE NOVALICHES SERIES
The Novaliches soils cover 96.13% of the total land area of the city. The soils are light reddish brown, reddish brown to bright reddish brown in color. The surface and subsoil are friable in consistency and granular in structure. In the subsoils, spherical concretions are present and underneath are tuffaceous material of varying
degrees of disintegration and weathering. In some places, this tuffaceous material is exposed by extensive erosion. (See Table No. and )

LAND USE
Land use is a term provided herein to illustrate or describe specific use or predominant activity being permanently or temporarily undertaken within a defined land area and boundary. These land uses are believed to characterize the urban development trends and are formed as a result of socio-economic and political activities and decisions prevailing within an area. Likewise, land use patterns and distributions affect the general safety and quality of life of local residents in terms of their length and convenience of travels between one land use activity to another, susceptibility to air, water and noise pollution, environmental and sanitary conditions, the distribution of basic commodities and other variables relative thereto.
South Caloocan is known for industries and commercial centers but based on its actual land use distribution, 63% of the total land area is residential use. Industrial use covers the next highest share of about 11%, followed by the commercial which is 7%. And only 7% are identified as vacant and urbanizable.
North Caloocan has a different land use character from South Caloocan. Only 46% of its total land area are residential use, followed by a big share of 36% of vacant land. Only 4% of this total covers industrial use and a very small 0.4% for commercial use.
