FOREWORD 
This Annual Development Plan (ADP) for the Financial Year 2024/25 implements the 
second FY of the County Integrated Development Plan (CIDP) 2023-2027 which was 
prepared, in adherence to the principles contained in national and international 
development agenda i.e., Kenya Vision 2030, Bottom-Up Economic Transformation 
Agenda (BETA) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Kenya Vision 2030 is being 
actualized through five-year Medium-Term Plans (MTP) and are subsequently 
implemented through Annual Plans and budgets.  
The Annual Development Plan (ADP) is prepared in accordance with section 126 of the 
Public Finance Management Act, 2012, and section 104 of the County Government Act, 
2012 in fulfillment of Article 220(2) of the constitution. The 2024/25 ADP sets out 
development priorities, which are summarized by programs and sub-programmes in the 
ten sectors. The Annual Development Plan has been prepared through consultative 
engagement with county sectors. The targets were obtained from CIDP III which had 
undergone public participation during its preparation. This ADP, just like the CIDP, 
focuses on sectors with potential to transform lives and empower residents for economic 
and social advancement. 
This ADP aims to shift development focus from infrastructural investments to economic 
sector investments (i.e., Dairy improvement and commercialization; Livestock breeds 
improvement; Cash crop development (nursery development for pyrethrum, coffee, 
banana; Value addition strategies; Tourism development; Cooperative sub-sector 
support; Irrigation development through provision of pipes and pumps; Agriculture and 
livestock extension services) for wealth creation. The focus also is on entrepreneurship 
and youth empowerment especially capitation initiative for Vocational Training. This 
ADP also prioritizes the roads infrastructure development and maintenance, extension 
and maintenance of existing water projects, water infrastructure development across the 
county. The development programs and projects pursued by this Annual Development 
Plan are geared towards achieving sustainable economic development and enhanced 
socio-economic welfare of citizens. 
A total of KShs.17.43 billion will be required to implement the programmes and projects 
proposed in this Plan, out of which KShs.9.725 billion representing 56 percent will 
finance recurrent expenditures (personnel emolument, operation, and maintenance), and 
KShs.7.705 billion, representing 44 percent will finance development activities. The 
ratios are compliant with the fiscal responsibilities as provided for under section 107 of 
the County Government Act, 2012. The County Government and the National 
xi 
 
Government will finance programmes and projects to a tune of 73 percent, the remaining 
27 percent will be funded by the private sector and Development Partners directly or 
through government agencies.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 
The FY 2024/25 ADP is the second Plan developed for the implementation of the CIDP 
2023-2027. The projects and programmes proposed are in line with the National 
Government priorities of Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA). 
The priority areas discussed in this Plan were arrived at after wide consultations with the 
stakeholders as stipulated in the PFM Act, 2012, and the County Government Act, 2012 
during formulation of the CIDP III. The main challenges facing the county as identified 
by stakeholders are high poverty levels, high unemployment rates, poor infrastructure 
development especially road connectivity and ICT, environmental degradation, and 
inadequate involvement of the members of the public in county affairs especially in 
project identification, and implementation. In addressing the challenges, five priorities 
were identified, namely: 
a) Wealth Creation 
b) Social Development 
c) Sustainable Environmental Conservation 
d) Roads and ICT Infrastructure Development 
e) Devolution and Governance 
The priorities are in harmony with MTP IV, Vision 2030, Africa Agenda 2063, and 
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). 
This ADP is divided into five chapters: Chapter One presents the County background 
information in terms of County demographic information, County priorities, and 
rationale for developing the Plan, and preparation process. 
Chapter Two covers the achievements from the previous ADP which was implemented 
through the FY 2022/23 budget, highlights challenges encountered, lessons learned, and 
recommendations for successful future implementation of Plans. The FY 2022/23 was 
implemented during the transition period and thus faced several challenges. Regardless, 
several key milestones were achieved as highlighted across the sectors: 
i. Achievement in the Executive, Public Service, County Administration, Public 
Participation and Participatory Development Sector, comprised of provision of 
essential working tools, equipment and uniforms for enforcement, devolved units 
and disaster management staff, and successful coordination of County 
government activities such as national celebrations, stakeholder engagements and 
public participation fora. 
i. Achievements in Finance and Economic Planning included the development of 
policy documents in compliance with the PFM Act, 2012. Among the documents 
xiv 
 
developed include the CIDP III, ADP 2023-24, 2023 County Fiscal Strategy Paper 
(CFSP), 2023 Debt Management Paper, FY 2021-22 County Budget Review and 
Outlook Paper (CBROP), FY 2023-24 budget, and C-APR. The department raised 
a total of KShs.414 million in the FY 2022-23 compared to KShs.404 million raised 
in FY 2021-22 recording a growth of 2.5 percent. This is the highest ever revenue 
raised in the County with the advent of devolution. The department increased ICT 
network through installation of Metro Fibre to Kisii Municipal and SD-WAN to 
Sub-counties, installed a structured Local Area Network and VOIP at new Public 
Service Board offices, installed and deployed Enterprise Endpoint Security 
solution for County ICT Systems 
ii. In the Agriculture Sector, some of the achievements realized include Supply of 
fingerlings and aqua feeds to farmers, provision of AI services at subsidized rates, 
operationalization of both the avocado and banana factories at ATC, construction 
of Marani and Magena Fresh produce markets, purchase, and distribution of Aqua 
feeds at Fish Multiplication Centre, and provision of extension Services. 
iii. In the Water and Environment Sector, some of the achievements realized include 
drilling of 13 boreholes, protection of 50 water springs, and distribution of 90 water 
tanks to various public institutions. 
iv. Achievements realized in the Health Sector include construction of modern 
infrastructures at Riana and Mosocho level IV hospitals, equipping of all levels 4 
hospitals with equipment, and supply of drugs to 161 health facilities. 
v. Achievements in the Trade, Industry, Tourism and Marketing Sector included 
enforcements of standards through verification of weight and measures 
equipment to protect consumers, establishment of market committees in major 
markets and mapping of tourist attraction sites. 
vi. In the Roads, Public Works, and Housing Sector, 105km of roads were graveled, 
and constructed Getenga footbridge. 
vii. In the Education, Labour, and Manpower Development sector, construction of 58 
classrooms were initiated and teaching and learning materials were supplied to 
both ECD and VT centres.  
Chapter three presents the sector/sub-sector strategic priorities, programs, and projects 
for FY 2024/25. Some of the proposed major projects expected to create an impact on the 
economy upon completion include: 
i. County Headquarters. The completion of this project will provide a conducive 
working environment for county staff. 
ii. Houses for vulnerable families. The programme aim is to improve on the standard 
of living of the elderly and marginalized groups in the society. 
xv 
 
iii. Automation of revenue. Completion of this project will enhance revenue 
collection. 
iv. Digitization of government services. The completion of the project will enhance 
access to government services and reduce the cost of operation. 
v. Intensification of extension services. The programme will increase productivity. 
vi. Training and supply of farm input. The project is geared towards increasing 
productivity and reduction of food insecurity. 
vii. Cancer Center in Health Services. It will be implemented through the support of 
the World Bank at a cost of KShs. 2.1 billion over a three years period. On 
completion, the centre will serve the entire Lake Region Economic Block.  
viii. Equipping of level 4 and 3 hospitals. The objective of the project is to increase 
access to health care. 
ix.  Last Mile Connectivity in Water and Sanitation. The objective of the project is to 
increase water reticulation within Kisii Municipality. Currently, GWASCO is 
losing an estimated 30 percent of water per day through illegal connections and 
leakages associated with dilapidated water lines.  
x.  Restoration of riparian areas and water catchment areas. This will involve 
replacing eucalyptus (blue gum) trees along the rivers and wetlands. 
xi. Solid waste management. The aim of the project is to improve sanitation and 
hygiene. 
xii. ICT infrastructure. The objective of the project is to increase internet connectivity 
to ease communication and streamline revenue collection.  
xiii. Maintenance of roads. The objective of the project is to increase connectivity. 
xiv. Construction of classrooms and toilets in ECDE centres. The objective of the project 
is to provide a conducive learning atmosphere the children. 
xv. County Bursary Fund. The objective of the programme is to support needy 
students. 
xvi. Industrial Park. The objective of the project is to encourage cottage industries and 
provide a conducive atmosphere to jua kali artisans. 
xvii. County Trade Credit Fund. The objective of the fund is to support MSMEs to boost 
their business. 
xviii. Spatial Plan. The aim of the project is to have a land use framework in the County. 
xix. Valuation roll. The aim of the project is to revise and expand valuation roll to cover 
all areas in the Municipality. 
xx. GIS. The aim of the project is to capture and organize county data for decision 
making and communication purposes.

enhance tourism in the county. 
xvi 
 
xxiii. County Assembly debating chamber. The aim of the project is to provide modern 
facilities and equipment to improve the efficiency of the County Assembly in the 
formulation of laws. 
Chapter four discusses the resource requirements by sector and program. It also discusses 
how the County Government is responding to changes in the financial and economic 
environment. It is estimated to cost KShs. 17.43billion to implement this Plan out of which 
KShs.7.705billion will cater for development expenses and the balance recurrent 
expenses. Though, the Plan has a resource gap of KShs.4.7billion that is expected to be 
filled by development partners through the PPP approach. Departments are therefore 
required to start engaging development partners in financing some of the development 
projects to ensure 100% implementation of the Plan.  
Lastly, Chapter Five presents the county monitoring and evaluation framework as 
outlined in the County Integrated Monitoring and Evaluation System (CIMES

Kitutu Central ward in Kitutu Chache South has the highest population of 95,887 while Birongo 
ward in Nyaribari Chache has the lowest population of 15,513.  Masimba ward in Nyaribari Masaba 
is the largest with an area of 87.1 square kilometers while Bogeka ward in Kitutu Chache North is 
the smallest with an area of 13.7 square kilometers. 
ii. Socio-economic 
The food poverty level in the County is placed at 44.5 percent compared to the national poverty 
index which is at 32 percent (2015/16 KIHBS) making Kisii County one of the poorest counties in 
Kenya.  Life expectancy is estimated at 61 years compared to the National indicator of 62 years, and 
the literacy level, on the other hand, is estimated at 90.8 percent compared with that of the national 
level estimated at 84.5 percent.  
iii. Climate 
The County exhibits a highland equatorial climate resulting in a bimodal rainfall pattern with an 
average annual rainfall of 1,500mm. The long rains are between March and June, while the short 
rains are received from September to November; with the months of January and July being 
relatively dry. The maximum temperatures in the County range between 21°C and 30°C, while the 
minimum temperatures range between 15°C and 20°C. The high and relatively liable rainfall 
patterns coupled with moderate temperatures are suitable for growing crops like tea, coffee, 
pyrethrum, maize, beans, and bananas as well as dairy farming. However, due to climate change, 
rainfall patterns are likely to be unpredictable in the future. 
iv. Topographical features 
Kisii County is characterized by a hilly topography with several ridges and valleys divided into 
three main topographical zones. The first zone covers areas lying below 1,500m above sea level 
located on the western boundary and include parts of the Suneka, Marani, and Nyamarambe 
Divisions. The second zone covers areas lying between 1,500 -1,800m above sea level located in the 
4 
 
Western parts of Keumbu and Sameta Divisions, Eastern Marani, and Gucha River basin. The third 
zone covers areas lying above 1,800m above sea level in parts of the Eastern and Southern Keumbu, 
Masaba, and Mosocho Divisions. 
The most notable features of these topographical zones are the hills of Nyamasibi (2,170m), Sameta 
(1,970m), Kiamwasi (1,785m), Kiong’anyo (1,710m), Kiongongi, Kiombeta, Sombogo, Nyanchwa, 
Taracha and Kegochi among others. The general slope of the land is from east to west with 
depressions and valleys.  
Seventy-five percent of the County has red volcanic soil (nitosols) which are deep in organic matter. 
The rest of the County has clay soils that have poor drainage (phaezems); red loams; and sandy 
soils. In the valley bottoms, there exist black cotton soils (verisols) and organic peat soils 
(phanosols). The growth of cash crops such as tea, coffee, pyrethrum, and subsistence crops such as 
maize, beans, and potatoes are supported by the red volcanic soils. 
The County is traversed by permanent rivers which flow westwards into Lake Victoria and among 
the notable ones are the Gucha, Mogusii, Riana, Mogonga, Chirichiro, and Iyabe Rivers that can be 
a good source of water to households for irrigation, and domestic use. 
1.2 Rationale for Preparation of ADP 
The FY 2024-25 County Annual Development Plan (ADP) is prepared in line with Section 126 of the 
Public Finance Management (PFM) Act, 2012, and Section 104 of the County Government Act, 2012. 
The Plan contains programs and projects to be considered for budgetary allocation in the FY 2024-
25. The projects/programmes are aimed at addressing developmental challenges in the county as 
highlighted in the CIDP 2023-27 as well as implementing the Bottom-Up Economic Transformation 
Agenda (BETA) in the realization of the Kenya Vision 2030, and Sustainable Development Goals 
(SDGs) aspirations. 
1.3 County priorities 
The County Government has continued to initiate programmes and projects geared towards 
creating jobs and increasing agricultural productivity all aimed at reducing poverty levels. In 2013, 
the food poverty level in the county was estimated at 52 percent.  This has since then declined to 
44.5 percent compared to the national average of 32 percent according to the 2015/16 Kenya 
Integrated Household and Budget Survey report. This figure is still high, therefore, there is a need 
to come up with strategies to reduce the food poverty index to less than 30 percent over the planned 
period 2023-2027. Some of the factors considered contributing to the high poverty index in the 
county include low agricultural productivity due to land segmentation, inadequate extension 
5 
 
services, over-reliance on rain-fed agriculture and poor marketing strategies; high unemployment 
levels among the youth due to few industries; environmental degradation because of high 
population and urbanization; poor road network and market infrastructure hampering trade; and 
high cost of accessing health services. 
The aspiration of the County Government of Kisii in the FY2024/25 is to improve the livelihood of 
the County residents through investments in key priority areas that support a healthier workforce, 
job creation, and increased earnings from agricultural production which is the backbone of the Kisii 
economy. The County aspiration of prosperity for all as envisioned in the CIDP 2023-2027 will be 
realized through the proposed five priority areas, namely: 
a) Wealth Creation 
b) Social Development 
c) Sustainable Environmental Conservation 
d) Road and ICT infrastructure Development   
e) Devolution and Governance 
 
1.4 Preparation process of the Annual Development Plan 
Preparation of the Plan was done through a participatory approach as required under Article 
220 of the Constitution. The departments through the sector working groups prepared sector 
reports that were compiled by the directorate of economic planning. The draft was then 
subjected to public participation in consultative meetings conducted on 22nd August 2023 in all 
the sub-counties (separate report is available for reference). Views of the stakeholders who 
submitted memoranda through sub-county administrators, ward administrators and through 
e-participation portal were incorporated after which the document was adopted by the County 
Executive Committee and approved by the County assembly. In coming up with this Plan, 
departments referenced to the CIDP 2023-2027 that implements H.E the Governor’s Manifesto, 
MTP IV that implements the Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA) in 
realization of the Kenya Vision 2030 and SDGs.

CHAPTER TWO: REVIEW OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE 
PREVIOUS ADP FY 2022/23 
2.1 Overview 
Proposed programs and projects in FY 2022/23 were implemented during the transition period 
following the August 2022 general election.  As a result, implementation was slow due to 
uncertainties. Most projects did not take off or the implementation process started late and therefore 
were not completed as scheduled. Most of these projects were carried forward to FY 2023-24 as 
ongoing works. The FY 2022/23 ADP had a total cost of KShs.13.708 billion however, 
KShs.11.113billion was available for budgeting representing 81.07 percent financing. 
2.2 Sector Achievements and challenges by sector in the Previous Financial Year (FY 
2022/23). 
The ADP 2022/23 proposals were implemented across the 10 departments and County Assembly.   
2.2.1: Executive, Public Service, County Administration, Public Participation and Participatory 
Development. 
The sector oversees general administration, coordination of government functions, enforcement 
services, civic education, and coordination of public participation in the County. Over the review 
period, the sector targeted various activities among them completion of the Governor’s residence, 
renovation of the Governor’s office, completion of ward and sub-county offices, provision of 
working tools and uniform to enforcement officers. The proposed activities in the Plan had a cost of 
KShs.329million for development activities but only KShs.112million was available for budgeting 
representing 34 percent of funding. Despite the low financing, the sector achieved the following 
under the review period: 
i. Provided essential working tools, equipment and uniforms for enforcement, devolved units, 
and disaster management staff. 
ii. Successfully coordinated County government activities such as national celebrations, 
stakeholder engagements and public participation fora. 
iii. Actively facilitated in the local revenue collection through enforcement and compliance. 
iv. Actively facilitated mobility of county officers through the fleet management services. 
2.2.2 Finance, Economic Planning, and ICT Services. 
The Sector derives its mandate from Section 103 of the Public Finance Management (PFM) Act, 2012, 
in furtherance of Article 225(2) of the Constitution of Kenya, 2010 which states that Parliament shall 
enact legislation to ensure both expenditure control and transparency in all governments finance 
management and establish mechanisms to ensure their implementation. Additionally, the functions 
7 
 
and obligations of the department are drawn from Section 105 of the County Government Act, 2012, 
and Executive Order No.1 of 2023. Section 104 of the PFM Act, 2012 further indicates that subject to 
the Constitution, a County Treasury shall monitor, evaluate, and oversee the management of public 
finances and economic affairs of the county government.  
During the review period, the sector was KShs.104 million for development out of the planned 
KShs.370million representing 28 percent level of funding. The following milestones were realized 
during the review period: 
i. The county generated a total of KShs 414.93 million in the FY 2022/2023 as Own Source 
Revenue. This amount represented an increase of 2.5 percent compared to Kshs.404.55 
million realized in FY 2021/2022.Figure 2.1 shows the trends in own source revenue.

v. Adoption of climate smart Aquaculture practices. 
 
2.2.4 Energy, Water, Environment, and Natural Resources 
The sector is responsible for ensuring the availability and sustainable management of water and 
sanitation for all as envisioned under SDG 6.  It is also coordinating the mitigation of climate change 
impact as provided for under SDG 3. In realizing this objective, the sector planned to construct 
water schemes, drill boreholes, protect water springs, and tree nurseries establishment, plant trees, 
and clean rivers. The sector was allocated KShs.286million out of KShs.2.0 billion proposed in the 
Plan representing a 14 percent level of funding. Some of the proposed activities that did not get 
funding include Mokubo water project, and the Kiareni water scheme at KShs.750million and 
KShs.800million respectively. The sector achieved the following during the review period:

To ensure effective service delivery, the following recommendations are proposed: 
i. Payment of pending bills/electricity bills for water schemes as a priority. 
11 
 
ii. Adoption of a county drilling rig policy. 
 
2.2.5. Medical Services, Public Health, and Sanitation. 
The Department of Health is charged with the responsibility of providing and promoting quality 
curative and preventive healthcare services that are responsive, accessible, and affordable to the 
county citizens. The sector is comprised of two sub-sectors: Public Health and Medical Services. 
Access to affordable Primary Healthcare was one of the key priorities in the FY 2021-22 ADP. In a 
bid to improve the outlook, the scope of services, and quality of care; and thus, improve access to 
primary healthcare services in various facilities, the Health Sector prioritized infrastructural 
improvements in both Primary and Secondary Level (Hospital) Facilities ranging from construction 
of maternity wings, theatres/casualty wings, civil works, and other new services. In addition to the 
infrastructural projects, implementation also targeted increasing immunization for under 5-year-
olds, improving skilled delivery, reduce mortalities, and morbidities resulting from Malaria, 
HIV/AIDS, T.B, and other communicable and non-communicable diseases. 
To implement development activities, the Department was allocated KShs. 2.2 billion in the ADP, 
and KShs.715 M in the budget, representing 33 percent financing. During the period under review, 
twenty-eight (28) capital projects were completed, and others are at different levels of completion. 
The achievements include: 
i. Construction of maternity wings at Nyakwana Dispensary and Boige Health Centre. 
ii. Construction of Staff houses at Mochorwa, Nyamasege Dispensary, and Matongo Health 
Centre.  
iii. Construction of Outpatient wings at Omobera, Gesabakwa Rikendo, Riotachi, and 
Machongo Dispensary among others. 
iv. Infrastructure improvement at Riana Health Center. 
v. Mosocho Market Health Center done up to 45% level of completion.  
vi. The Mother -Child Hospital at KTRH was done to 85% level of completion. 
vii. The Amenity Wing at KTRH was renovated and operationalized. 
viii. One Hundred and Fifty-Six (156) Health facilities were supported for non-pharmaceuticals, 
pharmaceutical and laboratory reagents. 
ix. A total of 48 facilities were supported in the use of Kenya EMR-an electronic HMIS system 
for collection and reporting of HIV services data (37 facilities out of the 48 now use cloud 
storage and 6 facilities are being upgraded to cloud storage). 
x. Attained the 95:95:95 HIV/AIDS management cascade on PMTCT, with the second 95% of 
the 95:95:95 for the proportion of HIV positive pregnant women who are currently on ART 
12 
 
now at 96.1% as at the end of June 2023, while the positivity rate among the general 
population stood at 2.36%. 
xi. TB treatment success rate (all forms of TB) fluctuated from 87% in June 2020 to 42% in April 
2022. The number of notified TB cases reduced from 18,811 in April 2021 to 378 in April 
2023. 
xii. The incidence of Malaria with case positivity rate of 12% per 1,000 of OPD visits in 2022/23. 
An estimated 34,954 LLTINs were distributed which is 77.3% of the target among pregnant 
mothers and in children < 1 year, 32,510 nets were distributed which is 94.6%of the target. 
xiii. The percentage of children under one year who are fully immunized stood at 81.2% while 
1.2% of the under 5yrs attending Child Welfare Clinics were underweight as at the end of 
June 2023. 
xiv. On Family Planning, the department aimed at achieving 80% usage of contraceptives but 
achieved 25.6% among women of reproductive age.  
xv. The number of mental health cases per 1,000 OPD visits averaged 5, so mental health needs 
to be addressed urgently. The number of road traffic injuries (facility) per 1,000 OPD visits 
was 5, an increase from 4 in FY 2021/22. 
xvi.  There was an average of 1 case of Gender Based Violence per 1,000 OPD visits. 
xvii. On NCDs, there were 7,840 new cases diagnosed with Diabetes which makes up 0.3% of 
the outpatient workload, and 16,597 with Hypertension (1%of the total outpatient 
workload.).  
 
Service provision was hindered by several challenges. Most of these challenges relate to but are not 
limited to the resources available for implementing programs and projects and include: 
i. Stifled and inadequate resources for capacity building health workforce. 
ii. Budgetary constraints that limited the scope and number of projects undertaken during the 
implementation period. 
iii. Delays of disbursements that affect not only development but also recurrent items like staff 
emoluments. 
iv. Erratic claiming and receipt of NHIF reimbursement affecting project implementation. 
v. Lack of a digitized project management system and committee to track project progress. 
To improve service delivery, the following recommendations are proposed as follows: 
 
i. Explore new funding models and partners to bridge funding gaps-PPPs, development and 
implementing partners. 
13 
 
ii. Resource consolidation-The sector to work on partner management to ensure there is a joint 
County and implementation partner implementation of programs to supplement the 
sharable revenue and reduce duplication of project and funding efforts. 
iii. To bridge the budgetary constraints at the County, Phased implementation of high-impact 
flagship projects that can be supported within the available resource basket. 
iv. Streamlining the NHIF claim and reimbursement process, including having a County Focal 
Person dedicated to NHIF. 
v. Install and implement a project management system and committee (PMC) to track and 
report on project implementation. 
 
2.2.6 Roads, Housing and Public Works 
The Department of Infrastructure, Roads and Public Works is expected to develop and maintain 
efficient and effective road networks to spur economic growth and provide efficient and cost-
effective services in designing, implementing, and supervising infrastructure works within the 
County. Road infrastructure is an enabler of the performance of other sectors. Good road 
connectivity facilitates the transportation of agricultural produce to the market, patients to 
hospitals, and students to schools, and goods from factories to the market. In the review period, the 
sector targeted to gravel 200km of roads and construct footbridges to connect communities. For the 
implementation of the projects/programs, the sector was allocated KShs.779million in the budget 
against a target of KShs.1.040billion in the Plan representing 75 percent financing. During the 
period under review, the department: 
i. Opened 8 kilometers of roads. 
ii. Maintained 105 kilometers of road. 
iii. Constructed Getenga footbridge. 
iv. Constructed Kiamogore - Mbanda Drainage works. 
v. Prepared BoQs for various county projects. 
vi. Approved plans for construction. 
However, the implementation of these projects experienced several challenges which affected 
service delivery as presented below: 
i. High equipment and plant maintenance cost. 
ii. Large unsettled pending bills. 
iii. Unfavourable climate conditions, especially heavy rains and bad terrain that affects 
construction of road infrastructure. 
14 
 
iv. Encroachment of road reserves by the public. 
To ensure proper execution of projects and enhanced services delivery, the following 
recommendations are suggested: 
i. There is a need to create a County Roads Maintenance Fund like the national Road 
Maintenance Levy Fund. 
ii. Need to create a Mechanical Fund. 
iii. There is a need to formulate a Road Maintenance Policy. 
2.2.7 Education Labour and Manpower Development 
The sector comprises of Early Year of Education (EYE) and Vocational training. The former lays the 
ground for children’s development and the latter provides artisans that are key to industrial 
development. Some of the activities lined up for implementation in the review period included 
construction of classrooms and toilets in the ECD centres, construction of workshops and 
dormitories in VTC. In implementing these projects, the sector was allocated KShs.146 million in 
the budget against KShs.182 million proposed in the Plan, representing 80 percent financing. In the 
FY2022/23, various programs and projects were initiated during the period under review and the 
following are the achievements: 
i. Initiated construction of 58 ECDE classrooms. 
ii. Supply of teaching and learning materials to VTCs. 
The challenges encountered included: 
i. Delays in processing BoQs for construction of ECDE classrooms and child-friendly latrines. 
ii. Inadequate funds to support sectoral projects and programs, especially completion of 
ECDE classes, latrines, and recruitment of ECDE teachers/caregivers. 
For proper execution of projects and programs, it is recommended that Public Works process BoQs 
in the first quarter for contracting to be completed and works to commence early. 
 
2.2.8 Trade, Tourism, and Industry 
The sector is comprised of: Trade, Tourism, and Industry sub-sectors. The sector's mandate is to 
promote both domestic and international trade, tourism, and industry in the County by creating an 
enabling business and investment environment. The sector is key in realizing SDG 11 which 
requires governments to make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient, and 
sustainable. In achieving this goal, the sector planned to construct market shades and toilets in 
various urban centers. The sector had proposed activities worth KShs. 506 M in the previous ADP, 
15 
 
of which only KShs. 131 M was funded, representing 26 percent of funding. In FY2022/23, the 
department achieved the following: 
i. Conducted market elections in 10 markets: - Daraja Mbili, Keroka, Keumbu, Nyamache, 
Nyakoe, Mosocho, Kenyenya, Kegogi, Gesero and Sengera. 
ii. Commissioned works in 8 markets: - Motonto market shed, Nyamaiya toilet, Ochodororo 
market shed, Geteri toilet, Kionyo market shed and toilet, Gesero market shed, Mogweko 
market and Misesi market shed. 
iii. Verified: - 3,132 weights; 813 counter machines; 528 fuel dispensers; 20 mechanical platform 
machines; six 50 ton electronic way bridges; 108 electronic counter scales and two-ton 
electronic platform machines. 
iv. Collected KShs. 1,608,310 through the Directorate of Weights and Measures. 
v. Mapping of tourist sites within the county like Nyangweta forest, Ekeera kia Nyakwana, 
Itumbe forest, Manga ridge, and Tabaka Soapstone carvings. 
vi. Participated in the Agricultural Society of Kenya (A.S.K) show. 
The sector was unable to meet its targets due to several challenges that are summarized below: 
i. Lengthy procurement and payment process that resulted in late delivery of projects and 
payment of contractors. 
ii. Inadequate technical staff to oversee projects. 
iii. Inadequate funds to establish market committee in place for prosper management of 
markets. 
iv. Solid waste management at markets hindering Own Source Revenue Collection in major 
markets. 
v. Scarcity of Land in some areas which were identified for development hence limiting project 
magnitude. The county has small roadside markets that do not have sufficient land for 
development. For instance, the case of Nyamarambe Market, where the designated market 
area has been encroached upon. 
vi. Inadequate technical staff to oversee programmes such as the County Trade Credit Scheme, 
market development, Alcoholic Drinks Control, and county weights and measures unit. This 
reduced the department’s ability to actualize programs and projects in the sub-counties. 
vii. Accumulation of Pending Bills hindered the inclusion of projects in the Development plans 
into the budget for implementation. 
viii. Increase in departmental wage bill reducing funds available for expenditure on development 
projects.  
16 
 
ix. Inadequate legislative framework to support activities in gaming and betting, Alcoholic 
Drinks Control, Tourism, weights and measures, and market development. 
x. Limited office space hinders proper service delivery to the public. 
To improve services in the sector, the following recommendations are suggested:  
i. Procurement and payment processes need to be streamlined, with priority given to pending 
bills. 
ii. To set aside funds to purchase lands for markets development to promote trade and improve 
revenue collection. 
iii. Transfer of solid waste management functions in Markets to the Department of Trade. 
iv. Prioritizing markets with adequate land for development. 
v. Engaging stakeholders and Development Partners to reduce project funding inadequacies. 
vi. Engagement with the County Public Service Board and County Executive to deploy technical 
staff to the department. There is also a need to train staff to sharpen their skills for proper 
service delivery. 
vii. Completion of ongoing projects in the FY 2022/2023 so that they do not spill over to the 
Implementation period of this ADP. 
viii. In liaison with the County Public Service Board, enhance the proper deployment of staff to 
the right directorates to enhance effectiveness. 
ix. Preparation of relevant policies and legislation to facilitate directorate operations. 
2.2.9 Culture, Youth, Sport, and Social Protection 
The sector is key in the realization of global SDGs, Kenya Vision 2030, especially the social pillar 
and the County’s key priority areas. The priority areas in the FY 2022-23 ADP were construction of 
sporting facilities, social halls, libraries, and support to People Living with Disabilities. To 
implement these projects, the sector was allocated KShs.104 million against KShs.350 million 
proposed in the Plan representing 30 percent financing. In collaboration with stakeholders, the 
department achieved several milestones as presented below:  
i. The department in partnership with Red Cross, AJIRA, LVCT Health and BMC conducted a 
sensitization campaign on youth and menstrual hygiene, HIV/AIDs and risk behaviors, 
youth and talent for wealth and employment creation, and youth and mental health. 
ii. In collaboration with the State department for Culture and Heritage successfully completed 
the first phase of Documentation, Digitization and Preservation of Indigenous Knowledge.  
iii. Supported 24 children’s homes with foodstuff.

ix. Conducted one capacity building workshop for visual and performing artists in 
collaboration with Kenya Film Commission. 
x. Held 50 Herbal and traditional medicine fora. 
xi. Completed Leveling, podium construction and chain link Installation at Marani stadium. 
 
2.2.10 Lands, Physical Planning and Urban Development 
The sector is responsible for urban planning and development. The sector planned various activities 
that were geared towards making urban centers and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient, 
and sustainable as envisioned in SDG 11. Some of the planned projects included: the opening of 
roads, the construction of a drainage system, and construction of urban infrastructure. The cost of 
the activities and operational cost in the Plan was proposed at KShs.639 million, and the sector was 
allocated KShs.369 million in the budget representing 58 percent financing. In the previous ADP, 
the sector achieved the following: 
i. Classified Ogembo urban area as a municipality with a charter. 
ii. Decommissioned Nyambera Landfill. 
iii. Cleaned and collected solid waste in nineteen urban areas. 
iv. Mapped markets plot ready for demarcation. 
v. Surveyed roads within Ogembo municipality. 
vi. Opened 16Kms of roads within Ogembo municipality. 
vii. Installed black surface on 0.8 Kms within Ogembo municipality. 
viii. Purchased solid waste management equipment. 
ix. Public participation on land (land clinics and public lands). 
x. Construction of Rangi Mbili-Elimu Umoja Road. 
xi. Augmentation of Huduma Centre-Kisii Hotel Drain and Associated Works. 
xii. Decommissioning of Nyambera dumpsite. 
xiii. Cleaning of Nyanchwa, CBD, Jogoo, Mwembe, Nyamataro areas within the municipality. 
xiv. Development of the Kisii Municipality Integrated Strategic Urban Development plan. 
 
2.2.11: County Assembly 
The assembly is responsible for legislation and oversight of the executive. To provide an 
18 
 
environment that enables the Honourable members to perform their roles effectively, under the 
review period five ward offices were constructed and handed over (Bomariba, Bobaracho, Bogeka, 
Bassi Central and Bogiakumu), debating chamber was renovated and the new main administration 
office block was completed.  
 
2.3 Challenges 
This section shows the challenges experienced by the county during the implementation of the 
previous plan. These challenges are as described below: 
i. Inadequate technical staff to facilitate project implementation, especially public works and 
engineers. It took unnecessarily too long to get BoQs from public works. Some of the projects 
budgeted for did not take off completely due to a lack of BoQs. 
ii. Delay by Contractors to commence work due to lack of LSOs. In some cases, some contractors 
did not take sites due to fear of a change of offices. 
iii. Lack of operational budgets to the facilitate implementation of development projects.  
iv. Funding of many small projects leading to thinned spreading of development funds with 
little impact 
v. Lack of a data management framework which is necessary for a good data/indicator baseline 
appropriate project targeting, reporting, and decision making.  
vi. Lack of a functional M&E system to uniformly track achievements against set targets. The 
County Government should develop an integrated M&E system to track and communicate 
on all development projects in the county. 
vii.  Inadequate budget to facilitate M&E activities. 
viii. Pending bills. The bulk of the money was used to pay for the pending bills as opposed to 
initiating new projects. 
ix. Delay in disbursements of funds by the exchequer affected operations.  
x. Inadequate space for public utility amenities. 
xi. Encroachment of public lands. 
xii. Inadequate development partners to fill the resource gap. Most of the items in the Plan were 
not budgeted for. 
xiii. Vandalism of public properties like water pipes, streetlights, and roads by members of the 
public 
2.4 Lessons learned, and recommendations. 
There were key lessons learned from the implementation of the previous plan and proposed 
recommendations for improvement. These are: 
i. Adoption of Good governance is key as it forms the basis for sustainable development. 
19 
 
ii. Need to establish a development forum at the county level for all stakeholders for 
appropriate coordination and synergy.  
iii. There’s a need to guide citizens to appreciate the linkage between physical infrastructure and 
the ‘software’ requirements in the forms of technical and capacity considerations. 
iv. All development projects should have adequate M&E budgets which will be consolidated 
and managed independently by M&E Unit  
v. Citizen engagement through dialogue platforms for joint planning, monitoring, and 
evaluating is critical for ownership of projects and promoting accountability and delivery of 
results. 
vi. Look for development partners to fill the resource gap. 
vii. Clear pending bills to unlock funds for new projects. 
viii. Check the wage bill to ensure adequate funds for the development.

CHAPTER THREE: COUNTY STRATEGIC PRIORITIES, 
PROGRAMMES, AND PROJECTS  
3.1 Overview 
This section presents a background summary of the sectors, development needs, strategic priorities, 
and strategic intervention to be implemented per sector. It also gives the sector stakeholders, sector 
programmes/projects, and cross-sectoral implementation considerations. 
3.2 County Priorities 
The priorities outlined in this document are consistent with the aspirations of Kenya Vision 2030 
[MTP IV: whose theme is Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA)], the Governor’s 
manifesto and the County Integrated Development Plan (2023-2027). The National Government has 
identified key priorities under Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA) that are meant 
to drive economic change for the next five years. The BETA Plan focuses on five pillars, 
namely: Agricultural Transformation and Inclusive Growth; Micro, Small, and Medium 
Enterprises (MSMEs); Affordable Housing (Housing and Settlement); Healthcare; and Digital 
Superhighway and Creative Industry. Under Agricultural Transformation and Inclusive Growth, 
the government has nine key value chains identified for growth. They include leather, cotton, dairy, 
edible oils, tea, rice, blue economy, natural resources including minerals, forestry, and building 
materials. 
In Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) pillar, the government is banking on Youth 
Enterprise Development Fund, Women Enterprise Fund, Hustler Fund, and funding to SMEs in the 
manufacturing sector to rejuvenate MSMEs growth and increase informal sector employment. 
On Housing and Settlement, the affordable housing programme seeks to offer over 100,000 Kenyan 
youths with jobs while constructing houses. Under Health, the government aims at mainstreaming 
the Universal Health Coverage programme. On the Digital Superhighway and the Creative 
Economy pillar, initiatives in the Information, Communication, and Technology sectors will be 
funded to reduce reliance on formal employment by the youth and reduce unemployment. 
At the County level, the development agenda is aligned to the Governor’s manifesto as captured in 
the CIDP III towards meeting the National Government’s BETA Agenda.  
i. Wealth Creation 
Poverty levels in the County continue to be high, with food poverty standing at 36.3% against the 
national average of 32%, hardcore poverty at 4.9% vis-à-vis 5.8% at the national level, and overall 
poverty standing at 38.7% at the National and 41.7% in Kisii County (KNBS, 2020) 
21 
 
To bridge the poverty gaps, the County commits to pursue economic empowerment programs 
geared towards poverty eradication and improved livelihood.  This will be primarily driven 
through an agricultural economy, with emphasis on value addition in agriculture production. The 
county is predominantly dependent on agriculture, with over 85% of the population relying directly 
or indirectly on agriculture as a source of livelihood. However, productivity remains a challenge. It 
is estimated that 71 percent of the households purchase what they consume while only 29 percent 
consume what they produce (KNBS, 2020). 
The county, therefore, shall look at making agriculture more attractive for the youth to increase the 
growth trajectory since the sector is the largest contributor to our GCP. The cottage industry shall 
be supported and cash crop farming for crops like pyrethrum, coffee and tea revamped. A value 
addition to bananas, avocados, sugarcane, pineapples, and pyrethrum shall also be funded. The 
cooperative movement shall be strengthened, and farmers linked to the world markets to enjoy 
higher farm gate value for their produce. Small holder farming shall be supported, and farmer 
producer groups strengthened, with farmers equipped with modern techniques that can withstand 
the effects of climate change (climate smart agriculture). Farmers will also be provided with high 
quality subsidized inputs and be trained in effective land use management to reduce further land 
defragmentation. 
Besides agriculture, trade and industry will be a major driver towards wealth creation. The County 
shall look at expanding domestic tourism, working with alternate sectors like urban planning and 
land to operationalize a 24-hour economy in the municipalities and townships and encouraging 
investment in the retail and hospitality services. The trade sector shall operationalize the trade credit 
scheme to promote growth of MSMEs and promote jua kali industry as well as establish business 
innovation and incubation centres that promote entrepreneurship. Similarly, the County shall work 
with the National Government to expand access to markets and marketing through the 
establishment of industrial parks and aggregation centres, restructuring and development of 
markets to support mama mboga as envisioned in the BETA Strategy. 
ii. Social Development 
Investment in social development is key in realizing Vision 2030 and the SDGs. Focus of this pillar 
involves investment in Early Childhood Development Education (ECDE), and Vocational Training 
Centres (VTC) through infrastructure development, equipping the centers with modern state-of-
the-art facilities, and providing a County Bursary Scheme.  
To improve access to health services, treatment of   prevalent diseases will be subsidized through 
22 
 
the UHC program and medical insurance provided for indigents (NHIF for indigents). The County 
shall also provide essential medicine, construct standardized health infrastructure, and pay stipend 
to community health promoters among other key interventions under the health sector. 
Water is an essential component of society. Water contributes to a wide variety of natural 
productive processes, which includes productive activities such as drinking, cooling, food 
production and manufacturing operations. There is therefore a need to provide clean, safe, and 
reliable water for domestic, urban, agricultural, and industrial use. Lack of water is a barrier to 
sustainable socio- economic development. The provision of safe water is critical in fighting 
infectious diseases through hand washing and improved sanitation. Therefore, scarcity of water 
and lack of collection and distribution systems can be costly. To address water issues, the County 
shall protect springs; drill and reticulate boreholes; construct and rehabilitate water schemes; and 
supply water tanks to institutions. 
To reduce vulnerabilities among society members and support the poor, the County shall enhance 
social protection programmes by constructing or renovating houses for vulnerable families, 
eliminating grass-thatched houses and dilapidated structures. The County will also promote 
construction of reliable rural housing schemes and new urban housing schemes. Social welfare 
programmes for the elderly, orphans and vulnerable children will be supported. To nurture talent 
development, investments will be made in sports and arts. 
 
iii. Sustainable Environmental Conservation. 
The County is facing the harsh reality that climate change is now affecting our environment, with 
floods, landslides and erosion becoming more rampant by the day. The dry spells are getting longer 
and the agricultural produce diminishing over the years. 
In the recent past, Kisii County has experienced a decline in water levels and a change in rain 
patterns due to climate change. More than half of the boreholes sunk over the last seven years are 
either dry or have a low discharge making reticulation impossible. Many springs are now dry and 
the volume of water in rivers has greatly reduced, hindering the execution of economic activities 
like farming, and even making water for domestic use expensive.  
The decline of water in rivers and drying of springs is largely attributed to the planting of 
eucalyptus trees (blue gum) which are known for high consumption of water in wetlands. River 
degradation has led to an extensive loss of habitats and additional pressures on the aquatic and 
terrestrial species that use them. It also affects the quality of our drinking water, resilience to 
23 
 
climate change, and ability to store and hold back flood water. Damage to river systems has been 
so extensive that an urgent need has emerged, not only to conserve but to restore these systems. 
Best practice river and catchment restoration can deliver multiple benefits including improvements 
to water quality, biodiversity, water supply security, and reductions in flood risk and pollution. 
 
 The County shall work towards sustainable environmental management, support planting of 
indigenous trees that are friendly to other land use practices, reclaim and protect riparian land, 
wetlands, and conserve forests. Drainage systems in various areas shall also be improved to 
prevent soil erosion and run-offs. 
 
iv. Enablers (road infrastructure and ICT Services) 
The three pillars of the Kenya Vision 2030 are anchored on enablers, largely on road infrastructure. 
A good road network is very important for realizing a better and business-friendly environment 
and realizing economic development. Roads link producers to markets, workers to jobs, students to 
school, and the sick to hospitals. 
The County Government realizes the vital role roads play in its development agenda and has over 
time doubled the number of graveled roads since the start of devolution. In collaboration with the 
National Government, the kilometers of roads paved have also increased tremendously. However, 
the need for roads remains immense as one third of classified roads need either reconstruction or 
rehabilitation. Over the medium term, the County Government will continue to invest in road 
infrastructure by completing all roads under construction. It will also prioritize upgrading and 
maintaining rural access roads. 
For the County to realize fast-paced growth, ICT is now becoming a very important enabler. 
Appropriate, low-cost, effective technology needs to be integrated into government processes for 
ease of business as well as a tool for learning in ECDE and Vocational training centers. ICT can also 
afford our youth a lot of online employment opportunities and reduce unemployment. In the FY 
2024-25 and over the medium term, the County Government will also digitize and automate all 
critical Government processes in the County, with a view to bringing at least 80 percent of all 
Government services online at greater convenience to citizens. 
v. Devolution and Governance 
Under this pillar, the County will work on deepening and further decentralizing the structures of 
governance and empowering the community by establishing ward level and village level structures. 
This will encourage more participation by citizens in determining their own development as well 
24 
 
as safeguarding this development. The county will then be able to offer efficient and proximate 
services that are people driven. The county leadership will take the lead to ensure public 
participation is entrenched and prioritization premised on citizen views. 
 
3.3 Strategies Programmes and Projects  
The priorities will be realized through the implementation of projects in the ten (10) departments, 
the Governor’s office, County Assembly, and in the two municipalities as discussed below.

CHAPTER FOUR: RESOURCE REQUIREMENTS 
4.1 Overview 
The successful implementation of this Plan will require a total of KShs. 17.43 billion of 
which KShs.  7.705 billion Representing 44 percent of the Plan cost, will finance 
development projects while the balance of KShs.9.725 billion will finance recurrent 
expenditure (personnel emolument, operation, and maintenance) 
The development and recurrent ratios comply with Section 107 of the PFM Act, 2012, 
which requires at least 30 percent of the proposed budget to finance development 
activities. 
4.2 Sources of Funds 
Proposed projects and Programmes in this Plan will be financed by the County Government 
of Kisii in partnership with the National Government Agencies and development partners 
directly or through the PPP approach. The Plan has a resource gap of KShs. 4.7 billion 
accounting for 27 percent of the total cost of the Plan. The gap is expected to be filled by the 
development partners and the private sector. Departments are therefore encouraged to 
engage development partners to ensure 100% project financing. Table4.1presents the 
summary of sources of funds.

4.3 Proposed funds allocation by departments/sectors 
The programme and projects in sectors guide the allocation of resources in realizing 
objectives in the five pillars, namely: Wealth Creation; Social Development; Sustainable 
Environmental Conservation; Enablers (Roads and ICT); Devolution, and Governance. 
Other programmes that are not necessarily related to the five priorities but facilitate the 
execution of the priorities will be allocated funds as well. Table 4.2 presents the summary

CHAPTER FIVE: MONITORING AND EVALUATION 
5.1 Overview 
This chapter discusses the county monitoring and evaluation framework outlined in the 
County Integrated Monitoring and Evaluation System (CIMES). It focuses on developing 
a monitoring and evaluation framework for specific projects and programs for the 
departments that will be implemented during the planning period. The Chapter also 
specifies the objectively verifiable indicators that shall be used to monitor 
projects/programs implemented by the various departments.  
 
5.2 Kisii County Institutional Monitoring and Evaluation Framework.  
The Department of Finance, Economic Planning, and ICT services, where the Monitoring 
and Evaluation directorate is domiciled, will adopt the County Integrated Monitoring 
and Evaluation System (CIMES). Under the system, all monitoring systems will be 
incorporated into the national system; the monitoring systems at the sub-county levels 
will feed into the County level, which will, in turn, feed into the national system. County 
Assembly Committees, County M&E committee (CoMEC), Monitoring and Evaluation 
(M&E) directorate, and Departmental Monitoring and Evaluation Committees (DMEC) 
will conduct continuous monitoring throughout the plan period. 
 
The CoMEC will ensure that the County Executive Committee (CEC) and County 
Assembly have good-quality information to make decisions. To undertake this, the 
CoMEC will provide quality assurance by verifying whether the M&E information given 
in the reports and the underlying data collection and analysis processes are of the needed 
quality and conform to the M&E requirements outlined. 
The CoMEC will also oversee the overall County compliance and results of projects 
implementation and service delivery within the third CIDP and ADPs. The CoMEC will 
be charged with preventing duplication and wastage and providing the evidence base 
for policymaking and management. 
 
5.3 Data Collection, Analysis, and Reporting 
5.3.1 Data collection mechanism 
Data collection methods will depend on the kind of indicators. The most common data 
to be collected will be qualitative and quantitative data. The mechanisms that will be used 
for data collection include: 
 
i.  Field observation visits. 
ii. Stakeholder meetings (barazas) 
iii. Feedback/suggestions. 
iv. Interviews. 
 107 
v. Other M &E tools e.g., project management software. 
vi. Department reports, agency reports, project records, statistical records and. 
vii. Surveys, questionnaires.  
 
5.3.2 Data analysis Mechanisms 
Analysis of the data collected will be done to give meaningful results. Content analysis 
will identify and organize information to understand new opportunities. Secondly, the 
triangulation method will collect data, find themes and codes, and compare data from 
other sources. 
 
5.3.3 Reporting Mechanisms 
The County will be required to have a strategic reporting system that will enable 
information to be retrieved quickly and easily. The County M&E Directorate will be an 
essential player in producing M&E information. The County Integrated Monitoring and 
Evaluation System (CIMES) will be adopted, and the reports generated will be submitted 
to the Chief Officer of Economic Planning and Development and the County Executive 
Committee Member (CECM) for Finance and Economic Planning for onward 
transmission to CoMEC quarterly. The discussed quarterly progress reports by CoMEC 
shall be forwarded to the County Assembly for deliberations, adoption, and decision-
making.   
 
5.4 Mechanism of Data Dissemination 
Data will be disseminated through the publication of reports, county meetings, 
workshops, Barazas, or the County website.  Where possible, progress reports will be 
available in an electronic format and will combine data and associated narratives and 
evidence.
