The legal foundation of the College was formulated by the SB members. On October 4, 2007, Municipal Ordinance No. 2, series of 2007 entitled "An ordinance establishing a local College in the Municipality of Mabalacat to be known as the Mabalacat City College and granting its charter providing for the Rules, Regulations and Pertinent Guidelines for its establishment and operation thereof," was passed.
On January 14, 2008, Mayor Morales appointed Dr. Leonardo C. Canlas as the First Ad Interim President of the College. The initial courses offered were BS in Elementary Education, BS in Secondary Education with major fields in Mathematics and Biological Science, and BS Information Technology.
