Proponent/Sponsor:

WHEREAS, designation of parade for Tricycle-for-Hire is designed to attain an

to 1,300 plus this 2014 have made some designated paradas over-crowded;
WHEREAS, to resolve the foregoing problem necessitates the identification of
other viable places that would serve as an extension for displaced tricycle units from the
over-crowded loading and unloading zones;
WHEREFORE, in view of the foregoing premises,
BE IT ORDAINED
ASSEMBLED, THAT:

SECTION 1. ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISION. It is hereby declared as an

additional parada of Tricycles-for-Hire the portion of P. Paterno Street right in front of the
Oloyas Bakery and beside LCC-Guinobatan.
SECTION 2. SCOPE AND COVERAGE. The coverage of this ordinance is
limited only to the 33 tricycle operators who petitioned for its declaration. These
operators who want to transfer or enlist themselves in this parade must possess all the
qualifications and none of the disqualifications prescribed under Section 4 to Section 6
of the Guinobatan Tricycle Code of 1999, as amended, and shall secure clearance for
money or property accountability from their present parade duly signed by the parade
president.

SECTION 3. PARADA COLOR AND NUMBER. For identification purposes, the

body of the tricycle units in this parada must painted with color yellow on its upper part
and with color blue on its lower part. This parada shall be known as Parada 4, being
previously dissolved for lack of tricycle units operating towards barangay Malabnig, this
Municipality.
SECTION 4. ROUTE. Since the main source of passengers in this parada are
customers of LCC-Guinobatan whose destinations are indefinite, the drivers may
convey passengers at different destinations except for the upland and mayon unit
barangays such as Masarawag, Mauraro, Sinungtan and the like. Tricycle drivers who
are about to transport passengers bound for mayon unit and upland barangays shall
convey the passengers up to their legitimate paradas only and turn-over them to the
legitimate drivers of the concerned parada.
SECTION 5. LIMITATION. Consistent with the ordinance providing for a 5-Year
Moratorium on the awarding of additional franchise, this parada is likewise fixed at 33
Tricycle Units only for 5-Years. Provided however, in cases of death of operators,
surrender or cancellation of franchise, as the case may be, the same shall be granted to
qualified applicants preferably to an immediate member of the family or to those
recommended by the previous franchise provided the qualifications required under the
Tricycle Code of Guinobatan are met.
SECTION 6. PENALTY CLAUSE. Any driver and/or operator of Tricycle-for-hire
found violating the provisions of this ordinance especially Section 4 hereof, shall pay the
following fines:
a. 1st Offense
b. 2nd Offense
c. 3rd Offense

Php 500.00
Php 1,000.00
Php 2,500.00

SECTION 7. TRANSITORY PROVISION. Upon effectivity of this ordinance, the

33 Tricycle Operators, as the originators of this parada, in coordination with the
Guinobatan Franchising and Regulatory Committee, shall organize themselves and
register their organization with the Security and Exchange Commission and apply for
membership with the GUIFTODA, the duly recognized Federated tricycle Drivers and
Operators Association of this municipality.
SECTION 8. SEPARABILITY CLAUSE. If, for any reason/s, any part/s of this
Ordinance shall be held to be unconstitutional or invalid, other parts or provisions hereof
which are not affected thereby shall continue to be in full force and effect.
SECTION 9. REPEALING CLAUSE. Any ordinance or part/s thereof which are
inconsistent with any of the provisions of this ordinance are hereby repealed, amended
or modified accordingly.
SECTION 10. EFFECTIVITY. This ordinance shall take effect upon its approval.
