<stro<strong>ng</strong>>Local</stro<strong>ng</strong>> Legislation CycleAs an institution tasked to carry out a public mandate, the sa<strong>ng</strong>gunian must have a clearunderstandi<strong>ng</strong> of the vision and mission of the LGU unit to which it belo<strong>ng</strong>s. As well, itswork must be guided by a clear process that defines the role of different stakeholders ineach stage or phase.<stro<strong>ng</strong>>Local</stro<strong>ng</strong>> legislation is a cycle that involves four phases or stages:1. Legislative Agenda Formulation2. Crafti<strong>ng</strong> of Ordinances and Resolutions3. Enactment of Ordinances and Codes of Ordinances4. Evaluation of the Implementation of OrdinancesAt each phase, various stakeholders in the LGU interact with the sa<strong>ng</strong>gunian to ensure thatmeasures produced address the development objectives of the LGU.Phase 1. Legislative Agenda FormulationLegislation does not begin with the first readi<strong>ng</strong> of a proposed measure. Legislationbegins much earlier, with the formulation of a list of priority legislative measureswhich the sa<strong>ng</strong>gunian seeks to enact for the duration of its term or what is called alegislative agenda.A legislative agenda (LA) is a package of priority policies and legislative measuresdesigned to support local development priorities, particularly those defined in theexecutive-legislative agenda (ELA). As defined in the ELA Manual, the ELA is anintegrated plan that contains the major development thrusts and priorities of both theexecutive and legislative branches towards a common vision for the locality.With the ELA as basis, the LA can be used to focus the work of the sa<strong>ng</strong>gunianduri<strong>ng</strong> its term of office. It can serve as a road map to guide the sa<strong>ng</strong>gunian inidentifyi<strong>ng</strong>, analyzi<strong>ng</strong> and formulati<strong>ng</strong> solutions to problems and issues requiri<strong>ng</strong>10
