If the city council gets its way, Tinuy-an Falls will soon be showing up on the sides of Bislig's government vehicles.
At its 66th regular session on October 20, 2026, the Sangguniang Panlungsod adopted Resolution No. 2026-824, authored by Councilor Paul E. Vicencio. It requests Mayor Florencio C. Garay "to facilitate the installation of Tinuy-an Falls tourism stickers and decals on city government vehicles, including the government vehicles of the twenty-four (24) barangays of Bislig City to promote the city's tourism destinations."
The idea: vehicles as moving billboards
The resolution says the stickers and decals "will serve as a mobile promotional platform to increase public awareness and visibility of the city's tourism attractions."
City and barangay vehicles travel across Bislig and to other towns and cities every day, for errands, meetings, emergencies and deliveries. The council's reasoning is that a Tinuy-an Falls design on each one would put the city's best-known attraction in front of residents and travelers wherever those vehicles go.
According to the resolution, vehicles bearing tourism materials "can help encourage local and visiting travelers to explore the natural attractions and other tourism destinations of Bislig City." It adds that the move will show the commitment of the city and its 24 barangays "to supporting tourism promotion and strengthening the city's identity as a destination for nature-based tourism."
Not yet a done deal
The resolution is a request, not an order. It asks the mayor to facilitate the installation "subject to applicable government policies, budgetary requirements, and vehicle-use regulations."
That qualifier matters. Government vehicles in the Philippines must carry official markings identifying the agency that owns them, and their use is governed by national rules. Any decal design would have to work alongside those required markings. The resolution also does not set a budget, a design, a deadline, or say which office will produce the stickers.
Why Tinuy-an
Tinuy-an Falls in Barangay Borboanan is the attraction most visitors come to Bislig for. It is often described as the widest waterfall in the Philippines, about 95 meters across with water dropping over three tiers. Bislig Today's visitor guide covers how to get there and what to expect.
The falls also got national exposure this year when student-athletes, coaches and officials visited during Palarong Pambansa 2026.
The decal proposal fits a wider tourism push by the city in 2026. Bislig now requires hotels, resorts and attractions to report tourist arrivals monthly, and it halved the occupation permit fee for first-time tour guides who complete the city's training.
What happens next
It is now up to the mayor's office to decide whether and how to carry out the request. Bislig Today will report if the city announces a design or starts putting the decals on its vehicles.
