Abstract

Section 126 of the Public Finance Management Act, 2012 forms the basis for the preparation of the Annual Development Plan (ADP) for the financial year 2019/2020. The ADP is a one year Plan that provides the basis for implementing the County Integrated Development Plan (CIDP) and guiding resources allocation to priority projects and programmes. It presents the strategic priorities for the medium term that reflect the County Government‟s priorities; County programmes and projects to be delivered; measurable indicators of performance; and the budget allocated to the programmes and projects in the County. The aspiration of the CIDP is to have a prosperous County in realization of the Vision 2030. To achieve the medium term goal of prosperity for all, the Plan has adopted Five Key strategic areas that will receive priority in funding. These areas are expected to contribute immensely to economic growth and development through provision of income-generating opportunities to the County residents. These areas are in line with the “Big Four” agenda of the National Government and in harmony with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). They include: i. Water reticulation. ii. Health Care; iii. Roads development; iv. Food security; v. Trade and enterprise development; and The preparation of ADP 2018-19 was led by the County Executive Committee Member (CECM) in charge of Finance and Economic Planning.
