The Taguig City Council (fil|Sangguniang Panlungsod ng Tagig) is the legislature of Taguig, Philippines. The legislative body is composed of 18 councilors, with 16 councilors elected from Taguig's two councilor districts (coextensive with the Legislative districts of Taguig and Taguig–Pateros, excluding the municipality of Pateros)[1] and two elected from the ranks of barangay (neighborhood) chairmen and the Sangguniang Kabataan (youth councils).[2] The council's presiding officer is the vice-mayor (elected by the city).[3] The council is responsible for creating laws and ordinances under the jurisdiction of Taguig.[3] [4] Although the mayor can veto proposed bills, the council can override the veto with a two-thirds supermajority.[2]
The Taguig City Council meets at the Taguig City Council Building, a separate building inside the City Hall compound in Barangay Tuktukan.
Additionally, it also holds its sessions and other committee hearings and meetings at the Taguig Lakeshore Hall in Barangay Lower Bicutan, the Taguig City Satellite Office at SM Aura Tower in Bonifacio Global City, and the Taguig City Convention Center in Barangay Ususan, mostly during the construction period of its new building.
The city elects sixteen members of the council, with eight members for each of the two local districts. In plurality-at-large voting, a voter in a particular district may vote for up to 8 candidates and the top 8 candidates with the highest numbers of votes are elected. Barangay and SK chairs throughout the city each elect a representative to the council, for a total of 18 councilors. City-council elections are synchronized with other elections in the country, which have been held on the second Monday of May every third year since 1992.[5]
For the 2025 Taguig local elections, the Taguig City Council had informed the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) that it is in the process of passing a city ordinance to reallocate the Embo barangays, which are previously part of Makati, between the two city council districts. This ordinance would add two councilors per district, bringing the total number of elected city councilors to 20.[6] The City Council started committee hearings on September 14, 2024 regarding the passing of an Ordinance incorporating the Embo barangays into the two existing districts of the city, attended by all barangay captains, District 1 Rep. Ading Cruz and Senator Alan Peter Cayetano. The proposed ordinance increases the number of councilors in each district from 8 to 12, for a total of 24 elected city councilors.[7]
