The Committee on Market and Slaughterhouse and Economic Enterprises of the 9th Sangguniang Panlungsod of the City of San Fernando, chaired by Councilor Mark Joseph Carreon, conducted a series of committee hearings on May 6 and 14, 2026 regarding the proposed ordinance regulating ambulant and sidewalk vending in the city. The proposed measure seeks to establish a permit and registration system for ambulant vendors, authorize the use of designated public areas or private lands with the consent of property owners for vending purposes, prescribe guidelines to ensure pedestrian safety, order, and sanitation, and impose corresponding penalties for violations and other related purposes.

The proposed ordinance aims to strike a balance between protecting the livelihood of ambulant and sidewalk vendors while ensuring the safe and orderly use of public spaces, particularly in the poblacion area where sidewalk obstructions and congestion have become pressing concerns. Through the regulation and registration of vendors and the identification of designated vending areas, the measure intends to help clear sidewalks and roadways for pedestrians in accordance with existing national laws and local ordinances on public safety, sanitation, and obstruction-free pathways. The ordinance also seeks to promote discipline, cleanliness, and organized economic activity while providing vendors with lawful and safer areas where they can continue to conduct their businesses.

Both committee hearings were presided over by Councilor Carreon and attended by Committee on Peace and Order and Public Safety Chair Councilor Elmer Bengco, City Administrator and Legal Officer Atty. Kristannico Abad, Public Order and Safety Coordinating Officer Louie Clemente, Business License and Permit Division Chief Sal Cariño, City Market Operations leadership headed by Acting Division Chief Gerard Pangan, sidewalk and ambulant vendors and other key stakeholders, as well as Mr. Paulo Binuya and Dr. Joselito Ortaliz, Jr. from the Office of the Secretary to the Sangguniang Panlungsod.

Following thorough deliberations, discussions, and collaborative crafting during the conducted committee hearings, the proposed ordinance was approved at the committee level and is now set to proceed to a public hearing on May 25, 2026 to further gather inputs and recommendations from the public and concerned sectors.

With the open and effective coordination and communication between the executive and legislative branches of the city government, led by City Mayor Vilma B***e-Caluag and Vice Mayor Brenz Gonzales together with the members of the 9th Sangguniang Panlungsod, measures such as the proposed ordinance are being carefully crafted to regulate ambulant and sidewalk vending, uphold public safety and order, support sustainable livelihood opportunities, and ensure cleaner, safer, and more accessible public spaces for Fernandinos.

A coordination and exploratory meeting was convened on April 29, 2026 by City Councilor Raquel “Ate Kay” Pineda, author of the 9th Sangguniang Panlungsod Resolution requesting the City Mayor to create a Technical Working Group (TWG) to study, develop, and recommend the implementation of a paperless transaction system in the City Government of San Fernando, Pampanga. The meeting aimed to initially identify, discuss, and map out strategies for the study, development, and eventual ex*****on of the proposed digital transformation initiative.

Presided over by Councilor Pineda alongside Councilor Jayson Sicat, the meeting gathered key department heads and representatives essential to the initiative. Among those present were City General Services Officer Engr. Mike Quizon, Jr., City Information and Communications Technology Officer Atty. James Francis Villanueva, City Planning and Development Coordinator Mr. Paolo Israel Franco, EnP, City Human Resource Management Officer Mr. Gian Carlo Angeles, City Administrator’s Office—Business License and Permit Division Chief Mr. Salvador Cariño, City Treasurer Ms. Mary Ann Bautista, City Legal Office’s Atty. Cornelio Tallada, Jr., and SP Secretary Atty. Joeriz Balatbat, along with key personnel and support staff from the CICTO and the Office of the Sangguniang Panlungsod.

Discussions centered on the intent of the resolution to establish a TWG that will conduct a comprehensive assessment of existing document processing systems, evaluate the city’s technological infrastructure and cybersecurity readiness, and review applicable laws and best practices on digital governance. The body also explored opportunities to integrate electronic document management systems, digital signatures, online submission platforms, and automated workflows to streamline government transactions.

The proposed shift to a paperless transaction system is anchored on improving efficiency, transparency, and responsiveness in public service. It is expected to reduce processing time and operational costs, enhance document tracking and records management, ensure data privacy and security, and contribute to environmental sustainability by minimizing paper usage. The TWG, once created, is also expected to formulate a policy framework and implementation plan, including a draft ordinance institutionalizing paperless transactions within the city government.

With the open and effective communication between the executive and legislative branches of the city government, led by City Mayor Vilma B***e-Caluag and Vice Mayor Brenz Gonzales, along with the members of the 9th Sangguniang Panlungsod and all department heads, initiatives such as this continue to be advanced for the benefit of the city and in the service of Fernandinos.
