The first CIDP was formulated at the advent of devolution against a backdrop of high expectations from the “Wananchi” for immediate results from the elected leadership. The development thrust during the period was therefore laying the foundation for the transformation of the county economy taking into account the resource endowments of the county. The development interventions undertaken therefore were geared towards re-engineering the agricultural sector through diversification, reducing the cost of farm inputs, promoting value addition, increasing land productivity, rehabilitation/ construction of new social infrastructure, improving stock of medical supplies, revitalizing the health and education sectors to meet internationally accepted standards, facilitating land title acquisition, promoting efficient land use and ensuring that the Urban and market centres are well planned. 2018-01-01T00:00:00Z https://repository.kippra.or.ke/handle/123456789/820 Trans Nzoia County Integrated Development Plan 2013-2017 Trans Nzoia County is one of the forty seven (47) counties in Kenya.
