 CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY IS CONSIDERED AS THE CITY OF GOLDEN
FRIENDSHIP. IT IS ALSO CALLED THE CITY IN BOOM, BLOSSOM AND BLOOM. IT IS
CONSIDERED THE GOLDEN MELTING POT OF OPPORTUNITIES IN MINDANAO.
WITH ITS BOOMING ECONOMY AND INDUSTRY, ONE CAN SAY THAT CAGAYAN DE
ORO IS A PROSPEROUS, PROGRESSIVE CITY.
BUT THEN, EVEN IN ITS PROSPERITY, IT IS STILL EVIDENT THAT THE CITY IS
NOT PROPERLY PLANNED. THE CITY IS DEVELOPING IN A SPRAWLING MANNER, A
DEVELOPMENT WITH NO DIRECTION. DUE TO THIS, IT IS SLOWING THE
IMMINENT PROGRESS OF THE CITY. HAVING BEEN TAUGHT ABOUT THE PROPER
URBAN PLANNING AND LAND DEVELOPMENT, WE HAVE PROPOSED OUR
VERSION OF PLANNING CDO, CONSIDERING THE EIGHT DESIGN REQUIRMENTS IN
PLANNING A CITY.
THE PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD) CAN BE PLACED IN, NEAR OR FAR AWAY FROM THE CITY
PROPER. SOME PEOPLE LIKE TO LIVE IN CITY, WHERE THEY ARE NEAR MALLS, PLAZA COMPLEXES AND
OTHER BIG ESTABLISHMENTS. THEY LIKE TO LIVE IN CITY BECAUSE OF ITS VARIETY, THE
NEIGHBOURHOOD, AND THE OVER ALL AMBIANCEOFFRED BY BEING NEAR THE CITY. ALSO THEY LIKE TO
LIVE IN THE CITY BECAUSE IT ENABLES THEM TO BE NEAR THEIR JOBS.

SOME PEOPLE PREFER TO LIVE OUTSIDE THE CITY PROPER. THEY LIKE TO BE ABLE TO TRAVEL TO THE
CITY WITHIN 30 MINUTES. JUST LIKE THOSE WHO LIVE IN THE CITY, THEY LIKE TO BE NEAR
ESTABLISHMENTS AND THEIR JOBS. BUT THESE PEOPLE LIKE TO HAVE THE QUIET AND PEACE THAT IS
MISSING WHEN YOU LIVE IN THE CITY. WITH THE CONSTANT STREAM OF TRAFFIC, AND MILD AIR
POLLUTION, THESE PEOPLE LIKE TO HAVE A QUIET TIME IN THEIR HOMES, THUS PREFERING TO LIVE IN
THE OUTSKIRTS OF THE CITY.

THEN, THERE ARE THESE PEOPLE THAT LIKE TO LIVE IN THE RURAL PARTS OF THE CITY. THEY LIKE THE
PEACE AND QUIET THEY GET BY LIVING IN THE MOUNTAINSIDE OF THE CITY. THEY LIKE THE CLIMATE,
WHICH IS COOL. THEY GET TO THE CITY IN AN HOUR OF TRAVEL.

USUALLY, CLUSTER HOUSING LIKE SUBDIVISIONS HAVE THEIR OWN MINI GOVERNMENT SYSTEM. SOME
EVEN HAVE THEIR OWN ESTABLISHMENTS, CHURCH AND SCHOOL. THAT IS WHY THE LOCATION OF THIS
PUDS DOES NOT REALLY MATTER, AS LONG AS ITS CONNECTED TO THE NATIONAL ROAD TO THE CITY
PROPER.
