Development of Implementing
Guidelines of Section 4 of Local Finance Circular 1-97
Section 4 of the LFC 1-97 was lifted from
the Urban Development Housing Act's (UDHA) implementation
of the requirements/conditions for availment of tax incentives/exemptions
which is an initial step for the private developers to participate
and develop socialized housing for the poor. Consequently,
the circular thru Sec. 4 mandated the Commission on Population
(POPCOM) to identify and validate urban izable sites/lands
in coordination with the concerned agencies. An expected output
of this is a certification from POPCOM that an area is urbanizable
within the 5-year span of time.
