Benguet among landslide-prone areas in Luzon

Benguet (of which Baguio City is part) is a landslide-prone area.  It is increasingly more so in the city istelf where people are now indiscriminately felling trees and building anywhere.  It has been said time and time again that the city is no longer able to cope with the ever increasing number of residents there.  The recent rubbish landslide is just one indicator.

So what is the local government doing?  I see nothing in the Baguio City official website.
