WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Overview
Rapid urbanization presents both an opportunity and a challenge. Urban areas continue to play
a critical role in national development. They contribute significantly to the Gross Domestic
Products of countries and they are home for many people. In Kenya for instance urban areas
contribute about 30% of GDP and are home to about 35% of the national population. Urban
areas and cities can easily become centers of poverty, inequality and crime if not well managed.
The government of Kenya realized the opportunity and challenge of urbanization, and came up
with various policies and legislation to institutionalize governance, management and
administration of urban areas and cities to make them effective in the delivery of services. Such
policies and institutions include, the Kenya Vision 2030, the National Urban Development
Policy and laws such as Urban Areas and Cities Act, amongst others.
The Government of Kenya also rolled out a programme to raise financial resources to finance
Urbanization. One such effort is the Kenya Urban Support Programme that is co-funded by the
government of Kenya and the World Bank.
The World Bank provided a credit facility of $300 million to the Government of Kenya to be
applied to legible medium cities(municipalities) under a six-year programme in which a
municipality would qualify to access funds from the programme on meeting certain pre-
determined conditions. The Municipality of Wajir is one such beneficiary of the programme.
1.2 Problem Statement
Urbanization is a resilient and possibly a positive power in development around the globe
today. Nevertheless, the accelerating rate of urbanization in Kenya has often overtaken the
capacity of National and County Governments in absolutely dealing with urban development
requirements so as to tap its potentials. These requirements cover a wide range of areas
including housing, infrastructure services, social and community facilities, local economic
development and environmental improvements and protection among others.
One of the key problems and challenges facing Kenya today is the unsustainable urban growth
and deterioration of urban environment and its hinterlands. Most of the urban centres across
the forty-seven counties within the country are experiencing rapid growth and development
that is not well serviced.
2
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
With high population growth rate, municipalities are rapidly growing in haphazard manner and
experiencing severe problems in all the development sectors. These include poor infrastructure
and housing, growing informal markets, lack of recreational facilities and parking areas, traffic
congestion, and lack of non-motorized transport facilities, severe environmental degradation,
unemployment, crime, and social distress among others. This calls for effective governance,
management and administrative structural frameworks. For these to be effective, there is need
for Integrated Urban Development Plan for all urban areas and cities.
This Plan is a framework for structural and institutional transformation of the Municipality of
wajir.
1.3 Objectives of the Consultancy
The main objective of this consultancy is to prepare five-year Integrated Development Plan
(IDeP), for the Municipal of Wajir. The specific objectives are to:
❖ Align municipal development strategies and priorities to both County, national and
international urban agenda.
❖ Establish the municipality development priories and objectives for the next 5 years

WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
2.1 Physical and Topographic features
Wajir County is a featureless plain and lies between 150 metres and 460 metres above sea level
and along latitude 1°45'N and longitude 40°4'E. Its Altitude is 244 m (801 ft.). The plain rises
gently from the south and east towards the north rising to 200 metres at Buna and 460 metres at
Bute and Gurar at the foothills of Ethiopian highlands.
The Municipality is prone to seasonal flooding during the rainy seasons which makes roads
impassable affecting accessibility to vital services. The County has seasonal swamps which
together with drainage lines serve as grazing zones during dry season and for cultivation during
the rainy seasons. The seasonal swamps are in Lagboghol area and in the western and southern
part of Habaswein area. The county is generally covered with young sedimentary rocks with loamy
soils in the north bordering the Ethiopian highlands. The county has considerable deposits of
Limestone and sand which are used in the local building industry as per the County integrated
development plan, 2018-2022.
2.1.1 Ecological conditions
Wajir County is a semi-arid area falling in the ecological zone V-VI. Zone V receives rainfall
between 300-600mm annually, has low trees, grass and shrubs. On the other hand zone VI receives
an annual rainfall of 200-400mm. Overall, the county receives an average of 240 mm of rainfall
per year which is erratic and short making it unfavorable for vegetation growth and rain fed
agriculture. There are two rainy seasons’ i.e. short and long rains. The short rains are expected
between October to December and the long rains from March to May each year. Crop activity is
carried out in the Lorain swamp and along the drainage lines in Bute. The main crops grown in the
area are sorghum, beans, fruits and vegetables as per the County Integrated Development Plan,
2018-2022.
2.1.2 Climatic conditions
The county experiences annual average relative humidity of 61.8 per cent which ranges from 56
per cent in February to 68 per cent in June. The average annual precipitation is 240 mm or 20 mm
each month. June is the driest month with an average of 1 mm of rain while April is the wettest
month with an average of 68 mm of rain. The higher areas of Bute and Gurar receive higher rainfall
of between 500mm and 700mm. The average temperature is 27.9 °C and the range of average
8
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
monthly temperatures is 3.5 °C. The warmest months are February & March with an average of
36°C while the coolest months are June, July, August & September with an average low of 21 °C.
The County experience frequent drought episodes especially from June to September, which
impact negatively on livestock, crop farming, education, nutrition, access to water and pasture. On
the other hand, the county also experiences flash floods which damages infrastructure and kills the
shoats (goats and sheep). The frequency and intensity of the extreme climatic events has been
increasing in the recent past disrupting the livelihood of the communities as per the County
Integrated Development Plan, 2018-2022.
2.2 Demographic Structure and Trends
As per the 2009 KNBS census, the Municipality population was 82,800 (43,684 males and 39,116
females) with the projected population expected to be 117,331 (61,902 males, 55,429 and females.
However as per the 2019 KNBS census the population distribution is as shown below:

CHAPTER THREE
LEGAL AND POLICY FRAMEWORK
3.1 Legal Framework Overview
The Constitution of Kenya 2010, County Government Act,2012, Urban and Areas Cities Act 2011
(amended, 2019), Public Finance and Management Act 2012 among others laws, lay firm
emphasizes for governance, management and administration of public affairs in urban areas and
cities.
The preparation of the Integrated Development Plan recognizes the provisions of the Constitution
of Kenya, 2010 and all relevant statutes, some of which include:
❖ Equality and freedom of discrimination (Article 27)
❖ Access to information (Article 35)
❖ Quality of environment (Article 42, 69, 70)
❖ Regulation of land use and property (Article 66)
❖ Leadership and integrity (Chapter 6, Article 73,75,76 and 77)
❖ Objects of devolution (Article 174)
❖ Principles of devolved government (Article 175)
❖ Urban Areas and Cities (Article 184)
❖ Respective functions and power of National and County Governments (Article 186, Fourth
Schedule)
❖ Relationship between Governments (Article 189 and 190)
❖ National Legislation to prescribe the structure of the development plans and budget of
Counties (Article 220 Sub article 2(a))
The Urban Areas and Cities Act, 2011 (Part (iii) Sections 11 – 31) lays bare the structure of
governance, administration and management of urban areas and cities, including the powers and
functions of each structure. Part V (section 36 – 42) of the law details of Integrated Development
Planning as a tool of governance, management and administration of urban areas and cities.
11
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
County Government Act, 2012 (section 5 and 6) elaborates the functions and powers of County
Governments. Sections 48 to 54 (Part vi) states that the County Governments can decentralize their
powers and responsibilities to other organs on principal/ Agency basis. The Act also elaborates
on Citizen Participation (Part viii, section 87 – 92), public communication and access to
information (part ix, sections 93 – 97), need for civic education (part x, section 98-101) and County
Planning (Part xi, section 102 – 115)
The public Finance Management Act (Section 126) compels County Governments to prepare plans
as basis for their requisition (budgeting), allotment and expenditure of finances. The Integrated
Development Plan for the Municipality of Wajir is thus strongly anchored in Law.
3.2 IDeP Linkages with Other Legal and Policy Documents
3.2.1 Linkages with the County Government Act, 2012
County Government Act 2012 stipulates the County Governments to prepare 5-year integrated
County development plans, Urban Areas Plans, Spatial Plans and annual county budgets for their
implementation. Under Section 102 of the Act, County planning is to provide a platform for a
unified sector-wide planning, budgeting, financing programmes, implementation, and
performance review. The Act mandates the County Planning Unit for coordination of the
integrated development planning. In addition, the Act stipulates that county planning shall serve
as a basis for engagement between government agencies and the citizenry, other stakeholders and
interest groups. It provides for the integration of economic, physical, social, environmental and
spatial planning. These county plans (section 107(2)) “shall be the basis for all the budgeting and
planning in a County”.
3.2.2 IDeP Linkages with the Public Finance Management Act (PFMA), 2012
The PFM Act 2012 provides for effective and efficient management of public resources. Article
125 of the Act spells out the budget process for government agencies in any financial year. This is
to consist of integrated development planning process, both long term and medium-term planning,
as well as financial and economic priorities for the agency over the medium term. Articles 126 of
the Act obligates each County Government to prepare an Integrated Development Plan that
includes strategic priorities for the medium term that reflect the county government's priorities and
plans, a description of how the county government is responding to changes in the financial and
12
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
economic environment; and, programmes to be delivered. The Municipalty of Wajir Integrated
Development Plan (IDeP) is prepared in tandem with the requirements of the PFM Act 2012.
3.2.3 Linkages with the Constitution of Kenya 2010
Schedule 4 of the constitution on the distribution of functions has County planning and
development as one of the functions that have been devolved to the counties according to the
Fourth Schedule. The preparation of IDeP takes into account the provisions of the constitution
where devolved units are required to plan and budget for development programs over a stipulated
period. Other functions which are devolved which this IDeP intends to focus on include public
amenities, fire and disaster management services, and urban infrastructure services among others.
3.2.4 IDeP Linkages with the Urban Areas and Cities Act, 2011 (amended, 2019)
Urban Areas and Cities Act (2011) is emphatic on the need for 5-year integrated development
planning and the need to align annual budgeting to the plan. These plans are separate from those
of the county. In section 36(2) it states that “an integrated urban or city development plan shall
bind, guide, and inform all planning for development and decision-making and ensure
comprehensive inclusion of functions.”
3.2.5 Linkages with the Kenya Vision 2030 and Medium-Term Plans
The Kenya Vision 2030 is the national long-term development policy that aims to transform Kenya
into a newly industrializing, middle-income country providing a high quality of life to all its
citizens by the year 2030 in a clean and secure environment. The Vision is anchored on three key
pillars: economic; social; and political and is implemented through 5-year medium term plans with
current being Medium term Plan III (Big 4 Agenda). The preparation of this IDeP follows the MTP
III with emphasis on housing, industrialization, universal health access and nutrition and food
security within the Municipality.
3.2.6 Linkages with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a collection of 17 global goals set by the United
Nations in 2015 and are a successor of MDGs. The SDGs cover a broad range of social and
economic development issues. These include poverty, hunger, health, education, climate change,
13
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
gender equality, water, sanitation, energy, environment and social justice. The Municipality of
Wajir align its projects/programmes to ensure they work towards achieving the SDGs.
3.2.7 Linkage with MTP III and the “Big Four” agenda
The national government’s “Big Four” agenda sets out priority programs and reforms to be
implemented during the plan period (2018 – 2022). The preparation of this IDeP adopts the “Big
Four” agenda as anchored in the MTP III of Kenya Vision 2030.
3.2.8 Urban Integrated Development Planning
Integrated development planning in the County takes two perspectives of county-wide 5-year
Integrated Development Planning (CIDP) and urban specific Integrated Development Planning
(IDeP). Urban IDePs, 10 year Sectoral Plans and Spatial Plans form the core inputs to the CIDP
which is implemented through an annual programme based budget in a 3-year fiscal framework
(MTEF). The County Governments Act 2012, Section 108 (1) provides for integrated
development planning for each county which shall have clear goals and objectives; an
implementation plan with clear outcomes; provisions for M&E; and clear reporting mechanisms.
Urban IDePs which favour ‘action’ and delivering infrastructural services within the urban
metropolis are therefore a sound building block to the County Integrated Development Planning.
Rapid urbanization portends the challenge of infrastructure service provision in urban metropolis.
Urban Integrated Development Planning provides a unified development framework that involves
the full field of strategy analysis and planning, development of programme-based budgets and
ranked priorities, financing, and participatory implementation. The framework further provides for
performance review through assessment of socio-economic changes in cumulative efficiency,
effectiveness, and value for money.

METHODOLOGY
4.1 Methodology
The following steps were undertaken in the preparation of the Integrated Development Plan for
the Municipality of Wajir.
4.1.1 Reconnaissance Survey
This involved the Consultant undertaking a preliminary field survey from 20th November to 25th
November, 2019 of the study area. The consultant employed observation and a series of
preliminary meetings with key agencies as methods of data collection. During the visit, the
consultant familiarized themselves and gathered preliminary data on the baseline information of
the study area.
Stakeholder Analysis and Identification
The stakeholder’s analysis and identification were undertaken by the consultant in close
collaboration with the client and various County Government agencies involved. The stakeholders
were categorized into various groups. Such groups included the National and County Government
agencies, community-based organizations, specialized groups, and self-help groups among others.
From each group, an assessment of the number of persons affected by the project were established
from which an appropriate number of representatives were agreed on. Special attention was drawn
to existing groups that also have a well-established system of representation. The stakeholders
identified and played an active role in the participatory phase of the assignment.
4.1.2 Preparation and Submission of Inception Report
After the successful completion of the reconnaissance survey, the consultant prepared an inception
report. The report was prepared by critically analyzing and evaluating the terms of reference,
preliminary data collected and desktop reviews. Desktop reviews entailed preliminary review of
the existing policy and legal documents affecting the project as well as any other relevant
documents. The inception report comprised of a brief of the project, description of baseline
information and overview of the preliminary findings. The report detailed out the tasks, method of
execution and work plan which guided the process. It provided an overview of the consultants’
understanding of the project, its aims, objectives, activities, deliverables and outputs.

CHAPTER FIVE
SITUATIONAL ANALYSES
5.0 Introduction
Situation analysis serves as a useful tool for determining the level of service provision. It presents
the current situation in service infrastructure and determines the strengths, weaknesses,
opportunities and threats in development of the Municipality.
5.1 Educational facilities
Educational establishments within the municipality include: Wagberi Primary School, Halane
Primary School, Hodhan Primary School, Wajir bula hadhan, Wajir girls secondary school, got
ade primary school, hadhan primary school Wajir bula hadhan, barwaqo girls primary school, wajir
high school and wajir secondary school amongst others. The ECDE facilities are either stand-alone
facilities or those within primary schools as per the government policies. However, most of ECDE
centers are dilapidated and need to be renovated. The Municipality also hosts various technical
institutions, namely; Wajir county polytechnic, frontier institute and livestock training institute.
5.2 Child Care Facilities
Child care facilities that exist are privately owned. Most are not registered by the department of
education. In this case, policies are required for guiding and regulating them. These are mostly the
informal children’s home.
5.3 Recreational facilities
Some of the recreational facilities include; Wajir community center, Darussalam garden, Wajir
baraza park, wajir stadium and Laag Yahuud amongst others.
5.4 Public purpose facilities
The public purpose facilities accommodates various facilities such as Wajir referral hospital, Wajir
police station and various religious facilities (churches) e.g. Catholic Mission, Wajir East Africa
Pentecost Church, St.Joseph catholic church , ACK wajir and AIC wajir. The mosques include
Jamia mosque, Hudhefa Mosque, Shaletey Mosque, Masjid Noor, and Got Ade Mosque amongst
others. The municipality also has social hall namely; Wajir ICT hall, however it’s not enough for
the municipality population.
18
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
The Wajir referral hospital lacks enough personnel especially specialized doctors and equipment’s.
The County Government should channel more funds in the health sector to staff and equip health
facilities, buy ambulances and establish YFCs (Youth friendly Centres) across the municipality so
that young people access SRH (Sexual Reproductive Health) information and services. Improve
the infrastructure in the municipality- hospitals and roads to make the health care accessible. This
would go a long way in increasing the number of hospital deliveries and survival of children.
5.5 Residential facilities
This residential facility are dispersed all over the planning area but fairly concentrated within the
central business district. Dukawallas are the major housing typology in the municipality where the
structures house commercial activities at the front part of the plot and residential function at the
rear part of the plot. Within the rural hinterland, manyattas are the main housing typology.
Therefore, the situation obtaining in the municipality of Wajir is one of the informal urban housing.
5.6 Industrial services
There are however a few light industries which include: falhat filling station, galti petrol station,
makaror slaughter house, and safe oil filing station amongst others. factories under construction
that stalled include; meat processing gum and simsim factories.
5.7 Commercial services
Commerce is the main economic function within the municipality. There are various commercial
activities including wholesale and retail shops, hotels, butcheries, beauty shops, fruits and
groceries stalls. These activities are both formal and informal. The formal activities are housed in
permanent structures and some have operating licenses. The informal ones on the other hand are
housed on semi-permanent and temporary structures or the wares are displayed on the ground.
Mobile banking is also available through various M-pesa shops.
The area has various markets such as; Orahey, Soko Mjinga , Stage Griftu and Suuq Digle,. There
are other minor markets such as Barwaqo, basabra mini-market, makaror produce market, Wagberi
and Suraay amongst others. The observed presence of informal traders along the road and other
open areas, illustrates the need for decent trading spaces is not met by the municipality.
19
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
It was observed that pastoral nomadism is one of the economic activities within the municipality.
There is need to improve the livestock farming in the municipality so that the young people can
maximize the benefits of livestock keeping.
5.8 Transportation services
The transportation sector comprises of the Isiolo-Mandera Road and other access roads within the
municipality. Wajir-Moyale Road is murram road and in good condition. The access roads are
being opened up and graded with murram. The municipality also has international Airport too.
5.9 Emerging issues
❖ Health: there is adequate health facilities accessible to the community within the municipality
However, it is inadequately equipped and lacks enough specialized doctors.
❖ Environment: there is an existence of dumping site which is not well maintained and its
location is a subject of conflict from the community living around it.
❖ Sanitation: the municipality lacks a sewerage system. It also lacks enough equipment’s to
handle waste from point of production to final disposal. Waste handlers are not trained to
handle waste hence lack of proper solid waste management.
❖ Water: the residents within the municipality have no access to portable water. The
municipality mainly relies water from the borehole and water pans.
5.9 .1 Opportunities
❖ Recycling and sale of by products can create jobs
❖ Method of waste disposal is crude as dumping causes environment pollution
❖ Government initiative for NHIF registration
❖ Majority of residents have positive health-seeking behavior
5.10 Finance, IT and Economic Planning
World trends projects that at least 50% of the world’s population in low- and middle-income
countries live in urban areas. The municipality of wajir therefore, require access to improved
finances both to confront dramatic environmental and service-provisions. The defining challenges
for authorities in municipality is how to raise and deploy resources to fund the huge expenditure
needs created by rapid growth, while contributing to continued economic growth and employment.
20
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
The municipality of wajir should collaborate with the development partners and also reinvest on
E-Government to expand their local revenue base.
5.10.1 Revenue Enhancement and Protection
Categories of Municipal Revenue
There are four sources of revenue, these are;
❖ Intergovernmental Finance (Exchequer)
❖ Donor support
5.10.2 Revenue Enhancement and Protection
Local Revenue collection correlates with the services rendered. Majority of urban residents
responds positively to levies charged when they are properly involved and infrastructure services
expected are put in place. Therefore, provision of expected services will be a key driver for the
municipality to raise targeted local revenues. In addition, the municipality of wajir should have
by-laws and compliance enforcement mechanism that provide order and promote fair business
practices.
5.10.3 Municipal Debt Management
Debt is good! However, debt is only beneficial if it is used for capital/development purpose and
especially those that generate revenue to the institution and improvement of urban economy. It
enables an institution to hasten its development agenda. The Municipality can therefore raise
additional funds by floating municipal bonds or through long term borrowing for long term
development programs. The cost of debt should be analyzed so the institution is not overburdened
in future when repaying the same. The table annual resource flow to the municipality of wajir:

5.10.4 Supply Chain and Asset Management
For the Municipality to thrive, it must procure quality goods and service. Procurement therefore is
a driver for the Municipality. Proper procurement planning holds the key to current and future
needs of the Municipality. The public procurement and disposal act and regulations provides the
framework of procurement of goods and services. However, the Municipality procurement need
be reviewed regularly to take advantage of any new opportunity. This will be enhanced through
openness and giving all interested parties an equal opportunity. Asset management and disposal
plan should be followed so that the institution is not bogged down by unproductive assets as such
the Board should establish, staff, train, equip the procurement department.
5.10.5 Information Technology and Innovation
ICT is a powerful enabler of development goals due to its unique characteristics to dramatically
improve communication and exchange of information and also to strengthen and create new
economic and social networks. It is thus very evident that ICT, when well harnessed and focused,
has the potential to bring in multiple benefits in the areas of governance and integration of all areas
of the municipal economy thus promoting the livelihoods of the entire population and alleviating
poverty.
The Municipality recognizes information communication technology as a growth sector that has
immense potential for unlocking many opportunities in business, education, agriculture, industry
and security. The development of this sector will play a crucial role in opening opportunities in
business and commerce in the Municipality through easy access to the market information. The
Municipality will endeavor to ensure enhancement and expansion of ICT through E-Governments
and well-maintained digital visibility systems/platforms.

CHAPTER SIX
PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT PRINCIPLES
6.1 Overview
Integrated Development Planning in Action
Integrated Development Planning is a process through which an overall framework for
development is formulated. It is a super planning for an entity and aims to co-ordinate the
development efforts of all divisions within the municipality in a coherent manner. Integrated
development planning takes cognizance of the existing conditions and problems and resources
available for development. The planning looks at economic and social development for the area as
a whole and sets framework for municipality of wajir infrastructure and services that are needed
and how the environment should be protected. The plan outlines the structures that manage the
planning process, how the public can participate and structures that will be created to ensure this
participation, time schedule for the planning and implementation processes and the responsibilities
for monitoring, evaluation and reporting. The development strategies and implementation
framework is based on the following municipal spectra:
6.2 Municipal Planning
The Municipal Integrated Urban Development Plan is the municipality’s overriding governing
instrument. It provides the framework for the development of the Municipal community and the
management of land use resources. Municipal planning promotes Municipal, Regional and
National Goals, interest and functions. The municipal planning is structured along:
6.2.1 Development Control
Development control refers to the process of managing or regulating the carrying out of any works
on land or making of any material change in the use of land or structures. It seeks to ensure that
operations on land conform to spatial development plan as well as policy guidelines, regulations
and standards issued by the planning authority from time to time.
For the municipality of wajir to be effective in planning, there is need to;
➢ Develop a development Control policy within a year
➢ Review of the existing municipality of wajir spatial plan (2013-2025)
25
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
➢ Establish, staff, train and equip development control department within one year.
➢ Establish, staff, train and equip compliance enforcement department within one year.
➢ Reach out other jurisdiction for benchmarking experience
➢ Ensure optimal land use
➢ Ensure the proper execution and implementation of approved physical and land use
development plan.
➢ Promote public participation in physical development decision-making
➢ Ensure orderly and planned building development, planning, design, construction,
operation and maintenance.
6.2.2 Urban Design
Urban design is the process of designing and shaping the physical features of cities and towns and
planning for provision of municipal services to residents and visitors. Modern urban design
encourages sustainable urban planning where physical and environmental resources are properly
utilized without compromising the future generation ability to do the same.
A comprehensive urban design has to consider and integrate the following:
❖ Pedestrian zones to facilitate non-motorized transport for environmental conservation and
promotion of urban health.
❖ Aesthetics
❖ Urban structure – arrangement and relation of business and people
❖ Accessibility through safe and easy transport
❖ Character and meaning – recognizing difference between places
❖ Continuity and change – Locating people in time and place by respecting heritage and
culture
The municipality of Wajir lacks existing civil work projects which caters for pedestrian walkways,
cycle lanes, thus interfering with the small-scale traders within the municipality. It also lacks
appropriate pavements and improved non-motorized transport (NMT). There is need to construct
storm water drainage systems.
26
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
6.3 Municipal Economy
The Wajir Municipal economy is predominately wholesale and retail trade. The municipality
therefore lacks strong economic base. However, there is potential for industrialization in cement
making, tanning, fruit processing, portable water processing, gum processing and resin processing.
The municipality faces various challenges such as poverty. This can be mitigated through:
6.3.1 Poverty Reduction
Poverty is a complex problem that must be addressed at all levels of society. Here are some of the
key areas to focus on.
Climate change
Climate change is expected to hit every region worldwide the hardest. The municipality of Wajir
faces higher temperatures, changes in precipitation patterns, and more frequent weather-related
disasters pose risks for food, and water supplies. At stake are recent gains in the fight against
poverty, hunger and disease, and the lives and livelihood of thousands of people in the
Municipality. As such, strategic measures to curb climate change should be adopted.
Community-driven development
Community-driven development programs encourage villages, urban neighborhoods, or other
household groups to managing their own development resources. It is a bottoms-up approach to
development that will give the Municipal Board control over planning and investments.
Eventually, reducing waste.
Education
Education is a powerful driver of development and one of the strongest instruments for reducing
poverty and improving health, gender equality, peace, and stability. The National Government in
conjunction with Wajir County Government has done a lot of progress in the past 7 years; many
more children attend schools and girls’ education has improved significantly. This has reduced
high illiteracy levels within the municipality.
Energy
A big fraction of the population uses firewood, charcoal and dung — for cooking and heating. This
has serious health implications, especially for women and children. The Municipal Board should
create awareness on the importance of promoting accessible, clean, environmental friendly and
sustainable energy.

6.5 Municipal Housing
The municipality of wajir is heavily marked by urban informal housing and urban decay. Informal
settlements is the major source of provision of housing for the growing population of the
municipality. Urban renewal also known as regeneration is the process of clearing out blighted
areas in the inner city so that an opportunity of higher-class housing can be created. It’s through
the Housing Act which provides legal processes and frameworks for urban renewal.
The following processes are followed when an urban renewal plan is to be affected. These include;
❖ A conditions study for data collection – In this study boundaries of the urban renewal area
are established.
❖ Creation of redevelopment plan after data analysis objectives are established - the
appointed members of the Municipal Board integrated with relevant disciplines
representatives.
❖ Public Participation– A participatory approach is appropriate to ensure that the public is
aware of the renewal plan
Wajir Municipality as an old town, has several cases of old dilapidated buildings which are still
standing to date. This creates an impression of old forgotten buildings with leaking roofs and ugly
walls. Hence need to implement the policy of painting all the business premises annually. The
municipality authority needs to assess the plots allocation policy and enforce repossessing of
undeveloped/abandoned plots/ structures within a certain definite time.
The Board of the Municipality in collaboration with the County Government of Wajir,
Development partners and private sectors should:
❖ Develop and roll out a housing policy within one year.
❖ Develop and roll out a development Control Policy within one year.
❖ Partner with national Government to benefit from the Big Four Agenda, housing
Components by lobbying the development of 2000 housing units in the Municipality of
Wajir in 5 years.
❖ Establish staff, train and equip the department of housing in one year.

6.6 Municipal Infrastructure and Services
The principle infrastructure of municipality includes paved roads, sewer works, water provision
reticulation, energy (electricity) provision lines, dump sites, solid waste treatment works, street
lighting, markets, cemeteries, crematoria among other social infrastructure facilities. The
municipality of wajir lacks adequate infrastructure facilities which limits its ability to provide
efficient services.
The Municipality in collaboration with County Government of wajir, National Government,
Development Partners and other stakeholders will:
❖ Paving of roads at the Municipality at the rate 10km per year.
❖ Undertake development of sewer system for the main core of the Municipality in 5

WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
6.12 Municipal Disaster Preparedness
The ever-growing population in our urban centers has brought about different hindrances in our
social, political and economic paths of life. Too many people in the cities have also led to a number
of environmental risks. The Municipal Board of Wajir in collaboration with County Governments
of Wajir, National Government, development partners, the residents and other stakeholders will:
❖ Develop and roll out municipal disaster risk and preparedness policy with a year.
❖ Roll out programmes for training and sensitization of public in one year.
❖ Establish, staff, train and equip disaster risk assessment and response department in two
years,
6.12.1 Risk Reduction and Management
The increased urban sprawl within the municipality has resulted in various challenges such as:
Waste disposal problems- Too many people concentrated in an area contribute to more waste
being released back to the environment. Locations where both solid and liquid waste can be
disposed end up being very limited posing huge challenge.
Insufficient clean water availability- Clean water availability becomes a huge problem since
there are too many people who are relying upon a water source.
Increased air pollution- Modern transport systems are the biggest source of air pollution.
Unreliable electricity supply – The municipality is often hindered by the power outage.
6.12.2 Capacity development for Municipality risk reduction
Awareness-raising programs can be tailored to meet the needs of specific populations, risks and
target groups. These approaches can be integrated into almost all existing initiatives, whenever
and wherever they take place. They can build on and support existing volunteer mobilization and
peer-to-peer communications. The objective of awareness-raising activities is to familiarize
communities with risk and interventions required prior to, during and following disasters.
In order to ensure that the capacity development for municipality is sufficiently strong to be able
to effectively engage in municipality resilience building, it is important to ensure that the following
elements are in place and institutionally supported:
43
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
❖ An understanding of the complexity of municipality contexts and planning processes.
❖ The ability to identify and engage with relevant urban stakeholders.
❖ An analysis of existing legal and policy frameworks.
❖ Strengthened communications and documentation skills to better capture and learn from
urban experiences.
❖ Regional information sharing of lessons learned and good practices.
❖ Training and simulation exercises appropriate for cities.
❖ Improved risk analysis skills and capacities.
❖ Improved human resource skills including the recruitment of educated/skilled volunteers.
❖ Increased fundraising capabilities
The first step in awareness-raising is the need to ensure broad stakeholder engagement. This is
required to understand drivers of risk and existing vulnerabilities as well as to ascertain appropriate
tools and processes needed for comprehensive assessment and identification of underlying causes
of risk. Municipal Board should focus on the awareness-raising activities listed below.
❖ Public education and awareness activities such as campaigns and training should be
undertaken to raise awareness and engage individuals and communities in municipal risk
reduction activities.
❖ Promoting awareness of relevant rights, responsibilities and duties can be important for
both improving the implementation of the existing legal and policy frameworks and for
empowering communities and local actors. Municipal residents that are aware of their local
disaster risk management systems, and individual rights and responsibilities when it comes
to basic services and risk reduction, are likely to be more engaged and empowered to
contribute to their own safety. Municipal Board can play an important role as a bridge
between government actors and urban residents in this respect. Key messages for
dissemination can be developed following an analysis of the legal framework and
consultations with relevant stakeholders.
❖ Campaigns. Municipalities are well-placed and have the experience to take on large-scale
municipal awareness campaigns, and can leverage the power of their volunteer base to
effectively disseminate information. Such campaigns enable a greater degree of
familiarization on the part of municipal residents and stakeholders of key issues. Given
44
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
major and rapid changes in the use of technology in municipal areas, it is important to use
and apply different media through which Municipal Board may want to seek to raise
awareness on urban risk. Different tools from radio to TV and from SMS to mobile apps
and social media will enable the municipality to reach different demographic groups.
Understanding the municipality complexity would help in capacity development that would
emphasize on the following:
❖ Reduce air pollution by upgrading energy use and alternative forms of transport- such as
cycling will be a major shift to reducing air pollution. (Carpooling or cycling)
❖ Valuing local skills and non-market-based solutions- Most technological innovations
and modern solutions are short lived, difficult to maintain and costly.
❖ Create private-public partnerships to provide services such as waste disposal- Private
individuals are at a greater position to provide waste disposal services because they
understand the topography. They can therefore provide these services with less
environmental harm.
❖ Incorporate planting trees and the care of city garden spaces as a key element in urban
planning.
❖ Energy security through distributed renewable energy systems- County Assembly
should enact legislation that provides fair subsidies to support the shift to renewable energy
sources.
❖ Sustainable construction processes, buildings and maintenance- Energy efficient and
more flexible buildings will have long term value. A good example is installing bio
digesters for liquid waste.
❖ Embrace the culture of sustainability- Municipality need to come up with projects that
can build projects that bring about positive transformation.

6.13 Municipal Finances
Municipality’s major source of finance is the budgetary provision from the County Government.
In the estimate financial year 2019/2020, the County Government of Wajir allocated ksh 466, 609,
262 to the municipality of Wajir for recurrent and development purposes.
The Board will require the following to improve the revenue standing for efficient service
delivery;
❖ Lobbying County government of Wajir for increased budgetary allocation.
❖ Lobbying development partners and national government for budgetary support to
Capital infrastructure Projects.
❖ Lobbying the County Government of Wajir for reinvestment of revenue collected from
the Municipality of Wajir.
❖ Identifying and exploiting other revenue potential sources such as land rates, land value
capture and loyalties to expand the revenue base of the municipality.
❖ Establish, staff, train and equip the department of finances in the municipality within 1
year.
6.14 Municipal Areas of Research
The study of cities and urban areas has changed dramatically over time with the new frames of
analysis being applied. Municipal study programs expand beyond looking at the current and
historical impacts of urban design to how it impacts the future interactions of the people. It looks
at how to improve city development through architecture, open spaces, the interactions of people,
and different types of capital that forms a community. Urban Research tests new concept’s
application to the analysis of real problems. It aims to address the emerging challenges and
practicalities of urbanism in the ‘newer’ generation and policy interventions
6.14.1 Research Area 1: Urban Planning
This research area in the Municipality include studies in area of spatial planning for the
improvement of development control. Specifically, this research domain purposes to provide
necessary planning data for healthy and safe living conditions, efficient transport and
communication, adequate public facilities and aesthetic surroundings. It also includes outline
communities and highways as regional planning.
47
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
6.14.2 Research Area 2: Urban Environment
It’s projected that over the next 30 years, most of the world’s population growth will occur in cities
and towns of poor countries. Rapid, unplanned and unsustainable patterns of urban development
are making developing cities focal point for many emerging environment and health hazards. As
urban population grow, research in the quality of urban environment will play an increasingly
important role in public health with respect to issues ranging from solid waste disposal, provision
of safe water and sanitation, and injury prevention, to the interface between urban poverty,
environment and health.
Unstable patterns of transport and urban land use are the drivers, or root cause, of a number of
significant and interrelated environment and health hazards faced by municipal dwellers. These
health and environment linkages cut across a range of policy sector and thus are often overlooked
in policy making. They must therefore, be a focus of urban research
6.14.3 Research Area 3: Urban Sprawl
Urban sprawl or suburban sprawl mainly refers to the unrestricted growth in many peri-urban areas
of housing, commercial development, and roads over large expanses of land, with little concern
for urban planning. Urban sprawl is associated with a number of negative environmental outcomes
such as proliferation of slum dwellings within the urban areas. The research focus in this area will
entail deep study in causes of the proliferation to impacts and shortcomings of existing policies in
urban planning and development control.
6.14.4 Research Area 4: Urban sociology and Economics
Urban sociology is the sociological study of life and human interaction in metropolitan areas. It
seeks to study the structures, environmental processes, changes and problems of an urban area and
by doing so provide inputs for urban planning and policy making. This research area uses statistical
analysis, observation, social theory, interviews, and other methods to study a range of topics,
including migration and demographic trends, economics, poverty, race relations and economic
trends of the urban area.
The research on urban economics involves using the tools of economics to analyse urban issues
such as crime, education, public transit, housing, and municipal finances (taxation and taxation
regimes). It is tied to investigating relationships between urban problems, such as poverty or crime.
48
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
6.14.5 Research Area 5: Land Use
Looking at land use within metropolitan areas, the urban land use research seeks to analyse the
spatial organization of activities within the urban area. In attempts to explain observed patterns of
land use, intra-urban location choices of firms and households. Considering the spatial
organization of activities within urban economics, it investigates the determinants of price of land
and why those prices vary across space. The Urban land use also identifies land-use controls, such
as zoning, and interpreting how such controls affect the urban economy.
6.14.6 Alternative water and energy sources: the board to carry out research on alternative water
and energy sources.
6.15 Municipal Cross- Cutting Issues
The Board and the administration of the Municipality of Wajir are conscious that always there are
matters/ issues that are beyond their capacity or affects more than one organ of the Board and
administration, and may be going even outside the realm of the Board and municipal
administration. The Board in collaboration with County government of Wajir and other
stakeholders will;
i) Establish a coordination unit to spearhead cross cutting issues within 1 year.
ii) Reach out to external clients/stakeholders to amicably deal with issues that are of
broader nature
iii) Alternative water and energy sources.

WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
CHAPTER NINE
MONITORING AND EVALUATION
9.1 Rationale
Monitoring and evaluation of the Integrated Development Plan (IDeP) seek to achieve the
following:
a) Facilitate Informed Decision-Making: This will provide valuable insights into how the
programmes are being implemented, the extent to which it is serving the intended beneficiaries,
its strengths and weaknesses, its cost – effectiveness and potentially productive directions for
the future.
b) Assess Value for Money: This will entail measuring and judging the impact of the
programmes in relation to the planned outputs, outcomes and impacts.
c) Accountability: Programmes’ planning accountability will entail an effort to meet the
diverse information interests and expectations of all those who have a stake in the Sector – the
citizens.
d) Learning Process: This will seek to maximize on citizens’ participation. This evaluation
will be a human-centered assessment of the extent of citizens’ participation, how well
participation is doing and the programmes effects on the citizens. This is guided by the notion
that to live is to learn, and to neglect lessons from life experience is to waste the life itself.
9.2 Data collection, Analysis, and Reporting
The methodology and approach of data collection and analysis will be guided by programmes
and sub-programmes. The Municipal annual work plans will be the basis for outlining the
milestones, deliverables as well as their respective due dates. The standardized M&E templates
form the basic tool for tracking the implementation of projects and programmes.
9.3 Framework for Monitoring and Evaluation
Before inception of any project, a baseline survey will be done to enable evidence-based
planning. Project proposals and plans for the projects identified will, against activities, clearly
indicate the hierarchy of results from objectives, activities, outcomes, inputs, objectively
verifiable indicators, and means of verification to key assumptions of the project.
72
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
9.3.1 Municipality Monitoring and Evaluation System (MIMES)
Monitoring and evaluating performance are a key element of IDeP implementation. The
Municipality Integrated Monitoring and Evaluation System (MMES) will provide the
guidelines to monitor the implementation of the identified key priority projects and programs.
The Municipality M&E framework establishes six (6) M&E committees for proper functioning
of M&E at all level in the Municipality administrative structures.
9.4 Exante Evaluation
At the beginning of every project, an evaluation will be done to document the actual existing
conditions (baseline), people’s expectations and intents. The department in charge of
Monitoring and Evaluation in conjunction with other divisions within the Municipality will
undertake baseline surveys and feasibility studies, and findings documented to justify projects.
9.5 Ongoing Evaluation
The Economist will be responsible for monitoring and evaluation, and will be mandated with
continuous compiling and reporting on the performance of all the Municipality projects.
9.6 Annual Projects/Programmes Reports
The outcomes of all projects implemented within a financial year will be compiled as
Municipality annual projects/programmes report. The annual reports will among other issues
document the resource use and value for money, impacts to the beneficiaries, challenges
experienced and lessons.

WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Overview
Rapid urbanization presents both an opportunity and a challenge. Urban areas continue to play
a critical role in national development. They contribute significantly to the Gross Domestic
Products of countries and they are home for many people. In Kenya for instance urban areas
contribute about 30% of GDP and are home to about 35% of the national population. Urban
areas and cities can easily become centers of poverty, inequality and crime if not well managed.
The government of Kenya realized the opportunity and challenge of urbanization, and came up
with various policies and legislation to institutionalize governance, management and
administration of urban areas and cities to make them effective in the delivery of services. Such
policies and institutions include, the Kenya Vision 2030, the National Urban Development
Policy and laws such as Urban Areas and Cities Act, amongst others.
The Government of Kenya also rolled out a programme to raise financial resources to finance
Urbanization. One such effort is the Kenya Urban Support Programme that is co-funded by the
government of Kenya and the World Bank.
The World Bank provided a credit facility of $300 million to the Government of Kenya to be
applied to legible medium cities(municipalities) under a six-year programme in which a
municipality would qualify to access funds from the programme on meeting certain pre-
determined conditions. The Municipality of Wajir is one such beneficiary of the programme.
1.2 Problem Statement
Urbanization is a resilient and possibly a positive power in development around the globe
today. Nevertheless, the accelerating rate of urbanization in Kenya has often overtaken the
capacity of National and County Governments in absolutely dealing with urban development
requirements so as to tap its potentials. These requirements cover a wide range of areas
including housing, infrastructure services, social and community facilities, local economic
development and environmental improvements and protection among others.
One of the key problems and challenges facing Kenya today is the unsustainable urban growth
and deterioration of urban environment and its hinterlands. Most of the urban centres across
the forty-seven counties within the country are experiencing rapid growth and development
that is not well serviced.
2
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
With high population growth rate, municipalities are rapidly growing in haphazard manner and
experiencing severe problems in all the development sectors. These include poor infrastructure
and housing, growing informal markets, lack of recreational facilities and parking areas, traffic
congestion, and lack of non-motorized transport facilities, severe environmental degradation,
unemployment, crime, and social distress among others. This calls for effective governance,
management and administrative structural frameworks. For these to be effective, there is need
for Integrated Urban Development Plan for all urban areas and cities.
This Plan is a framework for structural and institutional transformation of the Municipality of
wajir.
1.3 Objectives of the Consultancy
The main objective of this consultancy is to prepare five-year Integrated Development Plan
(IDeP), for the Municipal of Wajir. The specific objectives are to:
❖ Align municipal development strategies and priorities to both County, national and
international urban agenda.
❖ Establish the municipality development priories and objectives for the next 5 years

WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
2.1 Physical and Topographic features
Wajir County is a featureless plain and lies between 150 metres and 460 metres above sea level
and along latitude 1°45'N and longitude 40°4'E. Its Altitude is 244 m (801 ft.). The plain rises
gently from the south and east towards the north rising to 200 metres at Buna and 460 metres at
Bute and Gurar at the foothills of Ethiopian highlands.
The Municipality is prone to seasonal flooding during the rainy seasons which makes roads
impassable affecting accessibility to vital services. The County has seasonal swamps which
together with drainage lines serve as grazing zones during dry season and for cultivation during
the rainy seasons. The seasonal swamps are in Lagboghol area and in the western and southern
part of Habaswein area. The county is generally covered with young sedimentary rocks with loamy
soils in the north bordering the Ethiopian highlands. The county has considerable deposits of
Limestone and sand which are used in the local building industry as per the County integrated
development plan, 2018-2022.
2.1.1 Ecological conditions
Wajir County is a semi-arid area falling in the ecological zone V-VI. Zone V receives rainfall
between 300-600mm annually, has low trees, grass and shrubs. On the other hand zone VI receives
an annual rainfall of 200-400mm. Overall, the county receives an average of 240 mm of rainfall
per year which is erratic and short making it unfavorable for vegetation growth and rain fed
agriculture. There are two rainy seasons’ i.e. short and long rains. The short rains are expected
between October to December and the long rains from March to May each year. Crop activity is
carried out in the Lorain swamp and along the drainage lines in Bute. The main crops grown in the
area are sorghum, beans, fruits and vegetables as per the County Integrated Development Plan,
2018-2022.
2.1.2 Climatic conditions
The county experiences annual average relative humidity of 61.8 per cent which ranges from 56
per cent in February to 68 per cent in June. The average annual precipitation is 240 mm or 20 mm
each month. June is the driest month with an average of 1 mm of rain while April is the wettest
month with an average of 68 mm of rain. The higher areas of Bute and Gurar receive higher rainfall
of between 500mm and 700mm. The average temperature is 27.9 °C and the range of average
8
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
monthly temperatures is 3.5 °C. The warmest months are February & March with an average of
36°C while the coolest months are June, July, August & September with an average low of 21 °C.
The County experience frequent drought episodes especially from June to September, which
impact negatively on livestock, crop farming, education, nutrition, access to water and pasture. On
the other hand, the county also experiences flash floods which damages infrastructure and kills the
shoats (goats and sheep). The frequency and intensity of the extreme climatic events has been
increasing in the recent past disrupting the livelihood of the communities as per the County
Integrated Development Plan, 2018-2022.
2.2 Demographic Structure and Trends
As per the 2009 KNBS census, the Municipality population was 82,800 (43,684 males and 39,116
females) with the projected population expected to be 117,331 (61,902 males, 55,429 and females.
However as per the 2019 KNBS census the population distribution is as shown below:

CHAPTER THREE
LEGAL AND POLICY FRAMEWORK
3.1 Legal Framework Overview
The Constitution of Kenya 2010, County Government Act,2012, Urban and Areas Cities Act 2011
(amended, 2019), Public Finance and Management Act 2012 among others laws, lay firm
emphasizes for governance, management and administration of public affairs in urban areas and
cities.
The preparation of the Integrated Development Plan recognizes the provisions of the Constitution
of Kenya, 2010 and all relevant statutes, some of which include:
❖ Equality and freedom of discrimination (Article 27)
❖ Access to information (Article 35)
❖ Quality of environment (Article 42, 69, 70)
❖ Regulation of land use and property (Article 66)
❖ Leadership and integrity (Chapter 6, Article 73,75,76 and 77)
❖ Objects of devolution (Article 174)
❖ Principles of devolved government (Article 175)
❖ Urban Areas and Cities (Article 184)
❖ Respective functions and power of National and County Governments (Article 186, Fourth
Schedule)
❖ Relationship between Governments (Article 189 and 190)
❖ National Legislation to prescribe the structure of the development plans and budget of
Counties (Article 220 Sub article 2(a))
The Urban Areas and Cities Act, 2011 (Part (iii) Sections 11 – 31) lays bare the structure of
governance, administration and management of urban areas and cities, including the powers and
functions of each structure. Part V (section 36 – 42) of the law details of Integrated Development
Planning as a tool of governance, management and administration of urban areas and cities.
11
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
County Government Act, 2012 (section 5 and 6) elaborates the functions and powers of County
Governments. Sections 48 to 54 (Part vi) states that the County Governments can decentralize their
powers and responsibilities to other organs on principal/ Agency basis. The Act also elaborates
on Citizen Participation (Part viii, section 87 – 92), public communication and access to
information (part ix, sections 93 – 97), need for civic education (part x, section 98-101) and County
Planning (Part xi, section 102 – 115)
The public Finance Management Act (Section 126) compels County Governments to prepare plans
as basis for their requisition (budgeting), allotment and expenditure of finances. The Integrated
Development Plan for the Municipality of Wajir is thus strongly anchored in Law.
3.2 IDeP Linkages with Other Legal and Policy Documents
3.2.1 Linkages with the County Government Act, 2012
County Government Act 2012 stipulates the County Governments to prepare 5-year integrated
County development plans, Urban Areas Plans, Spatial Plans and annual county budgets for their
implementation. Under Section 102 of the Act, County planning is to provide a platform for a
unified sector-wide planning, budgeting, financing programmes, implementation, and
performance review. The Act mandates the County Planning Unit for coordination of the
integrated development planning. In addition, the Act stipulates that county planning shall serve
as a basis for engagement between government agencies and the citizenry, other stakeholders and
interest groups. It provides for the integration of economic, physical, social, environmental and
spatial planning. These county plans (section 107(2)) “shall be the basis for all the budgeting and
planning in a County”.
3.2.2 IDeP Linkages with the Public Finance Management Act (PFMA), 2012
The PFM Act 2012 provides for effective and efficient management of public resources. Article
125 of the Act spells out the budget process for government agencies in any financial year. This is
to consist of integrated development planning process, both long term and medium-term planning,
as well as financial and economic priorities for the agency over the medium term. Articles 126 of
the Act obligates each County Government to prepare an Integrated Development Plan that
includes strategic priorities for the medium term that reflect the county government's priorities and
plans, a description of how the county government is responding to changes in the financial and
12
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
economic environment; and, programmes to be delivered. The Municipalty of Wajir Integrated
Development Plan (IDeP) is prepared in tandem with the requirements of the PFM Act 2012.
3.2.3 Linkages with the Constitution of Kenya 2010
Schedule 4 of the constitution on the distribution of functions has County planning and
development as one of the functions that have been devolved to the counties according to the
Fourth Schedule. The preparation of IDeP takes into account the provisions of the constitution
where devolved units are required to plan and budget for development programs over a stipulated
period. Other functions which are devolved which this IDeP intends to focus on include public
amenities, fire and disaster management services, and urban infrastructure services among others.
3.2.4 IDeP Linkages with the Urban Areas and Cities Act, 2011 (amended, 2019)
Urban Areas and Cities Act (2011) is emphatic on the need for 5-year integrated development
planning and the need to align annual budgeting to the plan. These plans are separate from those
of the county. In section 36(2) it states that “an integrated urban or city development plan shall
bind, guide, and inform all planning for development and decision-making and ensure
comprehensive inclusion of functions.”
3.2.5 Linkages with the Kenya Vision 2030 and Medium-Term Plans
The Kenya Vision 2030 is the national long-term development policy that aims to transform Kenya
into a newly industrializing, middle-income country providing a high quality of life to all its
citizens by the year 2030 in a clean and secure environment. The Vision is anchored on three key
pillars: economic; social; and political and is implemented through 5-year medium term plans with
current being Medium term Plan III (Big 4 Agenda). The preparation of this IDeP follows the MTP
III with emphasis on housing, industrialization, universal health access and nutrition and food
security within the Municipality.
3.2.6 Linkages with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a collection of 17 global goals set by the United
Nations in 2015 and are a successor of MDGs. The SDGs cover a broad range of social and
economic development issues. These include poverty, hunger, health, education, climate change,
13
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
gender equality, water, sanitation, energy, environment and social justice. The Municipality of
Wajir align its projects/programmes to ensure they work towards achieving the SDGs.
3.2.7 Linkage with MTP III and the “Big Four” agenda
The national government’s “Big Four” agenda sets out priority programs and reforms to be
implemented during the plan period (2018 – 2022). The preparation of this IDeP adopts the “Big
Four” agenda as anchored in the MTP III of Kenya Vision 2030.
3.2.8 Urban Integrated Development Planning
Integrated development planning in the County takes two perspectives of county-wide 5-year
Integrated Development Planning (CIDP) and urban specific Integrated Development Planning
(IDeP). Urban IDePs, 10 year Sectoral Plans and Spatial Plans form the core inputs to the CIDP
which is implemented through an annual programme based budget in a 3-year fiscal framework
(MTEF). The County Governments Act 2012, Section 108 (1) provides for integrated
development planning for each county which shall have clear goals and objectives; an
implementation plan with clear outcomes; provisions for M&E; and clear reporting mechanisms.
Urban IDePs which favour ‘action’ and delivering infrastructural services within the urban
metropolis are therefore a sound building block to the County Integrated Development Planning.
Rapid urbanization portends the challenge of infrastructure service provision in urban metropolis.
Urban Integrated Development Planning provides a unified development framework that involves
the full field of strategy analysis and planning, development of programme-based budgets and
ranked priorities, financing, and participatory implementation. The framework further provides for
performance review through assessment of socio-economic changes in cumulative efficiency,
effectiveness, and value for money.

CHAPTER FOUR
METHODOLOGY
4.1 Methodology
The following steps were undertaken in the preparation of the Integrated Development Plan for
the Municipality of Wajir.
4.1.1 Reconnaissance Survey
This involved the Consultant undertaking a preliminary field survey from 20th November to 25th
November, 2019 of the study area. The consultant employed observation and a series of
preliminary meetings with key agencies as methods of data collection. During the visit, the
consultant familiarized themselves and gathered preliminary data on the baseline information of
the study area.
Stakeholder Analysis and Identification
The stakeholder’s analysis and identification were undertaken by the consultant in close
collaboration with the client and various County Government agencies involved. The stakeholders
were categorized into various groups. Such groups included the National and County Government
agencies, community-based organizations, specialized groups, and self-help groups among others.
From each group, an assessment of the number of persons affected by the project were established
from which an appropriate number of representatives were agreed on. Special attention was drawn
to existing groups that also have a well-established system of representation. The stakeholders
identified and played an active role in the participatory phase of the assignment.
4.1.2 Preparation and Submission of Inception Report
After the successful completion of the reconnaissance survey, the consultant prepared an inception
report. The report was prepared by critically analyzing and evaluating the terms of reference,
preliminary data collected and desktop reviews. Desktop reviews entailed preliminary review of
the existing policy and legal documents affecting the project as well as any other relevant
documents. The inception report comprised of a brief of the project, description of baseline
information and overview of the preliminary findings. The report detailed out the tasks, method of
execution and work plan which guided the process. It provided an overview of the consultants’
understanding of the project, its aims, objectives, activities, deliverables and outputs.
15
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
4.1.3 Data Collection
4.1.3.1 Secondary Data Collection
The consultant undertook desktop review. The documents reviewed included; County Integrated
Development Plan (CIDP), Municipal Charter, Annual Urban investment Plan and Budget, Wajir
County Budget Estimate 2019/2020, the municipality of Wajir Spatial Plan, legal frameworks and
policy document amongst other documents.

CHAPTER FIVE
SITUATIONAL ANALYSES
5.0 Introduction
Situation analysis serves as a useful tool for determining the level of service provision. It presents
the current situation in service infrastructure and determines the strengths, weaknesses,
opportunities and threats in development of the Municipality.
5.1 Educational facilities
Educational establishments within the municipality include: Wagberi Primary School, Halane
Primary School, Hodhan Primary School, Wajir bula hadhan, Wajir girls secondary school, got
ade primary school, hadhan primary school Wajir bula hadhan, barwaqo girls primary school, wajir
high school and wajir secondary school amongst others. The ECDE facilities are either stand-alone
facilities or those within primary schools as per the government policies. However, most of ECDE
centers are dilapidated and need to be renovated. The Municipality also hosts various technical
institutions, namely; Wajir county polytechnic, frontier institute and livestock training institute.
5.2 Child Care Facilities
Child care facilities that exist are privately owned. Most are not registered by the department of
education. In this case, policies are required for guiding and regulating them. These are mostly the
informal children’s home.
5.3 Recreational facilities
Some of the recreational facilities include; Wajir community center, Darussalam garden, Wajir
baraza park, wajir stadium and Laag Yahuud amongst others.
5.4 Public purpose facilities
The public purpose facilities accommodates various facilities such as Wajir referral hospital, Wajir
police station and various religious facilities (churches) e.g. Catholic Mission, Wajir East Africa
Pentecost Church, St.Joseph catholic church , ACK wajir and AIC wajir. The mosques include
Jamia mosque, Hudhefa Mosque, Shaletey Mosque, Masjid Noor, and Got Ade Mosque amongst
others. The municipality also has social hall namely; Wajir ICT hall, however it’s not enough for
the municipality population.
18
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
The Wajir referral hospital lacks enough personnel especially specialized doctors and equipment’s.
The County Government should channel more funds in the health sector to staff and equip health
facilities, buy ambulances and establish YFCs (Youth friendly Centres) across the municipality so
that young people access SRH (Sexual Reproductive Health) information and services. Improve
the infrastructure in the municipality- hospitals and roads to make the health care accessible. This
would go a long way in increasing the number of hospital deliveries and survival of children.
5.5 Residential facilities
This residential facility are dispersed all over the planning area but fairly concentrated within the
central business district. Dukawallas are the major housing typology in the municipality where the
structures house commercial activities at the front part of the plot and residential function at the
rear part of the plot. Within the rural hinterland, manyattas are the main housing typology.
Therefore, the situation obtaining in the municipality of Wajir is one of the informal urban housing.
5.6 Industrial services
There are however a few light industries which include: falhat filling station, galti petrol station,
makaror slaughter house, and safe oil filing station amongst others. factories under construction
that stalled include; meat processing gum and simsim factories.
5.7 Commercial services
Commerce is the main economic function within the municipality. There are various commercial
activities including wholesale and retail shops, hotels, butcheries, beauty shops, fruits and
groceries stalls. These activities are both formal and informal. The formal activities are housed in
permanent structures and some have operating licenses. The informal ones on the other hand are
housed on semi-permanent and temporary structures or the wares are displayed on the ground.
Mobile banking is also available through various M-pesa shops.
The area has various markets such as; Orahey, Soko Mjinga , Stage Griftu and Suuq Digle,. There
are other minor markets such as Barwaqo, basabra mini-market, makaror produce market, Wagberi
and Suraay amongst others. The observed presence of informal traders along the road and other
open areas, illustrates the need for decent trading spaces is not met by the municipality.
19
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
It was observed that pastoral nomadism is one of the economic activities within the municipality.
There is need to improve the livestock farming in the municipality so that the young people can
maximize the benefits of livestock keeping.
5.8 Transportation services
The transportation sector comprises of the Isiolo-Mandera Road and other access roads within the
municipality. Wajir-Moyale Road is murram road and in good condition. The access roads are
being opened up and graded with murram. The municipality also has international Airport too.
5.9 Emerging issues
❖ Health: there is adequate health facilities accessible to the community within the municipality
However, it is inadequately equipped and lacks enough specialized doctors.
❖ Environment: there is an existence of dumping site which is not well maintained and its
location is a subject of conflict from the community living around it.
❖ Sanitation: the municipality lacks a sewerage system. It also lacks enough equipment’s to
handle waste from point of production to final disposal. Waste handlers are not trained to
handle waste hence lack of proper solid waste management.
❖ Water: the residents within the municipality have no access to portable water. The
municipality mainly relies water from the borehole and water pans.
5.9 .1 Opportunities
❖ Recycling and sale of by products can create jobs
❖ Method of waste disposal is crude as dumping causes environment pollution
❖ Government initiative for NHIF registration
❖ Majority of residents have positive health-seeking behavior
5.10 Finance, IT and Economic Planning
World trends projects that at least 50% of the world’s population in low- and middle-income
countries live in urban areas. The municipality of wajir therefore, require access to improved
finances both to confront dramatic environmental and service-provisions. The defining challenges
for authorities in municipality is how to raise and deploy resources to fund the huge expenditure
needs created by rapid growth, while contributing to continued economic growth and employment.
20
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
The municipality of wajir should collaborate with the development partners and also reinvest on
E-Government to expand their local revenue base.
5.10.1 Revenue Enhancement and Protection
Categories of Municipal Revenue
There are four sources of revenue, these are;
❖ Intergovernmental Finance (Exchequer)
❖ Donor support
5.10.2 Revenue Enhancement and Protection
Local Revenue collection correlates with the services rendered. Majority of urban residents
responds positively to levies charged when they are properly involved and infrastructure services
expected are put in place. Therefore, provision of expected services will be a key driver for the
municipality to raise targeted local revenues. In addition, the municipality of wajir should have
by-laws and compliance enforcement mechanism that provide order and promote fair business
practices.
5.10.3 Municipal Debt Management
Debt is good! However, debt is only beneficial if it is used for capital/development purpose and
especially those that generate revenue to the institution and improvement of urban economy. It
enables an institution to hasten its development agenda. The Municipality can therefore raise
additional funds by floating municipal bonds or through long term borrowing for long term
development programs. The cost of debt should be analyzed so the institution is not overburdened
in future when repaying the same. The table annual resource flow to the municipality of wajir:

5.10.4 Supply Chain and Asset Management
For the Municipality to thrive, it must procure quality goods and service. Procurement therefore is
a driver for the Municipality. Proper procurement planning holds the key to current and future
needs of the Municipality. The public procurement and disposal act and regulations provides the
framework of procurement of goods and services. However, the Municipality procurement need
be reviewed regularly to take advantage of any new opportunity. This will be enhanced through
openness and giving all interested parties an equal opportunity. Asset management and disposal
plan should be followed so that the institution is not bogged down by unproductive assets as such
the Board should establish, staff, train, equip the procurement department.
5.10.5 Information Technology and Innovation
ICT is a powerful enabler of development goals due to its unique characteristics to dramatically
improve communication and exchange of information and also to strengthen and create new
economic and social networks. It is thus very evident that ICT, when well harnessed and focused,
has the potential to bring in multiple benefits in the areas of governance and integration of all areas
of the municipal economy thus promoting the livelihoods of the entire population and alleviating
poverty.
The Municipality recognizes information communication technology as a growth sector that has
immense potential for unlocking many opportunities in business, education, agriculture, industry
and security. The development of this sector will play a crucial role in opening opportunities in
business and commerce in the Municipality through easy access to the market information. The
Municipality will endeavor to ensure enhancement and expansion of ICT through E-Governments
and well-maintained digital visibility systems/platforms.

CHAPTER SIX
PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT PRINCIPLES
6.1 Overview
Integrated Development Planning in Action
Integrated Development Planning is a process through which an overall framework for
development is formulated. It is a super planning for an entity and aims to co-ordinate the
development efforts of all divisions within the municipality in a coherent manner. Integrated
development planning takes cognizance of the existing conditions and problems and resources
available for development. The planning looks at economic and social development for the area as
a whole and sets framework for municipality of wajir infrastructure and services that are needed
and how the environment should be protected. The plan outlines the structures that manage the
planning process, how the public can participate and structures that will be created to ensure this
participation, time schedule for the planning and implementation processes and the responsibilities
for monitoring, evaluation and reporting. The development strategies and implementation
framework is based on the following municipal spectra:
6.2 Municipal Planning
The Municipal Integrated Urban Development Plan is the municipality’s overriding governing
instrument. It provides the framework for the development of the Municipal community and the
management of land use resources. Municipal planning promotes Municipal, Regional and
National Goals, interest and functions. The municipal planning is structured along:
6.2.1 Development Control
Development control refers to the process of managing or regulating the carrying out of any works
on land or making of any material change in the use of land or structures. It seeks to ensure that
operations on land conform to spatial development plan as well as policy guidelines, regulations
and standards issued by the planning authority from time to time.
For the municipality of wajir to be effective in planning, there is need to;
➢ Develop a development Control policy within a year
➢ Review of the existing municipality of wajir spatial plan (2013-2025)
25
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
➢ Establish, staff, train and equip development control department within one year.
➢ Establish, staff, train and equip compliance enforcement department within one year.
➢ Reach out other jurisdiction for benchmarking experience
➢ Ensure optimal land use
➢ Ensure the proper execution and implementation of approved physical and land use
development plan.
➢ Promote public participation in physical development decision-making
➢ Ensure orderly and planned building development, planning, design, construction,
operation and maintenance.
6.2.2 Urban Design
Urban design is the process of designing and shaping the physical features of cities and towns and
planning for provision of municipal services to residents and visitors. Modern urban design
encourages sustainable urban planning where physical and environmental resources are properly
utilized without compromising the future generation ability to do the same.
A comprehensive urban design has to consider and integrate the following:
❖ Pedestrian zones to facilitate non-motorized transport for environmental conservation and
promotion of urban health.
❖ Aesthetics
❖ Urban structure – arrangement and relation of business and people
❖ Accessibility through safe and easy transport
❖ Character and meaning – recognizing difference between places
❖ Continuity and change – Locating people in time and place by respecting heritage and
culture
The municipality of Wajir lacks existing civil work projects which caters for pedestrian walkways,
cycle lanes, thus interfering with the small-scale traders within the municipality. It also lacks
appropriate pavements and improved non-motorized transport (NMT). There is need to construct
storm water drainage systems.
26
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
6.3 Municipal Economy
The Wajir Municipal economy is predominately wholesale and retail trade. The municipality
therefore lacks strong economic base. However, there is potential for industrialization in cement
making, tanning, fruit processing, portable water processing, gum processing and resin processing.
The municipality faces various challenges such as poverty. This can be mitigated through:
6.3.1 Poverty Reduction
Poverty is a complex problem that must be addressed at all levels of society. Here are some of the
key areas to focus on.
Climate change
Climate change is expected to hit every region worldwide the hardest. The municipality of Wajir
faces higher temperatures, changes in precipitation patterns, and more frequent weather-related
disasters pose risks for food, and water supplies. At stake are recent gains in the fight against
poverty, hunger and disease, and the lives and livelihood of thousands of people in the
Municipality. As such, strategic measures to curb climate change should be adopted.
Community-driven development
Community-driven development programs encourage villages, urban neighborhoods, or other
household groups to managing their own development resources. It is a bottoms-up approach to
development that will give the Municipal Board control over planning and investments.
Eventually, reducing waste.
Education
Education is a powerful driver of development and one of the strongest instruments for reducing
poverty and improving health, gender equality, peace, and stability. The National Government in
conjunction with Wajir County Government has done a lot of progress in the past 7 years; many
more children attend schools and girls’ education has improved significantly. This has reduced
high illiteracy levels within the municipality.
Energy
A big fraction of the population uses firewood, charcoal and dung — for cooking and heating. This
has serious health implications, especially for women and children. The Municipal Board should
create awareness on the importance of promoting accessible, clean, environmental friendly and
sustainable energy.

6.5 Municipal Housing
The municipality of wajir is heavily marked by urban informal housing and urban decay. Informal
settlements is the major source of provision of housing for the growing population of the
municipality. Urban renewal also known as regeneration is the process of clearing out blighted
areas in the inner city so that an opportunity of higher-class housing can be created. It’s through
the Housing Act which provides legal processes and frameworks for urban renewal.
The following processes are followed when an urban renewal plan is to be affected. These include;
❖ A conditions study for data collection – In this study boundaries of the urban renewal area
are established.
❖ Creation of redevelopment plan after data analysis objectives are established - the
appointed members of the Municipal Board integrated with relevant disciplines
representatives.
❖ Public Participation– A participatory approach is appropriate to ensure that the public is
aware of the renewal plan
Wajir Municipality as an old town, has several cases of old dilapidated buildings which are still
standing to date. This creates an impression of old forgotten buildings with leaking roofs and ugly
walls. Hence need to implement the policy of painting all the business premises annually. The
municipality authority needs to assess the plots allocation policy and enforce repossessing of
undeveloped/abandoned plots/ structures within a certain definite time.
The Board of the Municipality in collaboration with the County Government of Wajir,
Development partners and private sectors should:
❖ Develop and roll out a housing policy within one year.
❖ Develop and roll out a development Control Policy within one year.
❖ Partner with national Government to benefit from the Big Four Agenda, housing
Components by lobbying the development of 2000 housing units in the Municipality of
Wajir in 5 years.
❖ Establish staff, train and equip the department of housing in one year.

WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
6.12 Municipal Disaster Preparedness
The ever-growing population in our urban centers has brought about different hindrances in our
social, political and economic paths of life. Too many people in the cities have also led to a number
of environmental risks. The Municipal Board of Wajir in collaboration with County Governments
of Wajir, National Government, development partners, the residents and other stakeholders will:
❖ Develop and roll out municipal disaster risk and preparedness policy with a year.
❖ Roll out programmes for training and sensitization of public in one year.
❖ Establish, staff, train and equip disaster risk assessment and response department in two
years,
6.12.1 Risk Reduction and Management
The increased urban sprawl within the municipality has resulted in various challenges such as:
Waste disposal problems- Too many people concentrated in an area contribute to more waste
being released back to the environment. Locations where both solid and liquid waste can be
disposed end up being very limited posing huge challenge.
Insufficient clean water availability- Clean water availability becomes a huge problem since
there are too many people who are relying upon a water source.
Increased air pollution- Modern transport systems are the biggest source of air pollution.
Unreliable electricity supply – The municipality is often hindered by the power outage.
6.12.2 Capacity development for Municipality risk reduction
Awareness-raising programs can be tailored to meet the needs of specific populations, risks and
target groups. These approaches can be integrated into almost all existing initiatives, whenever
and wherever they take place. They can build on and support existing volunteer mobilization and
peer-to-peer communications. The objective of awareness-raising activities is to familiarize
communities with risk and interventions required prior to, during and following disasters.
In order to ensure that the capacity development for municipality is sufficiently strong to be able
to effectively engage in municipality resilience building, it is important to ensure that the following
elements are in place and institutionally supported:
43
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
❖ An understanding of the complexity of municipality contexts and planning processes.
❖ The ability to identify and engage with relevant urban stakeholders.
❖ An analysis of existing legal and policy frameworks.
❖ Strengthened communications and documentation skills to better capture and learn from
urban experiences.
❖ Regional information sharing of lessons learned and good practices.
❖ Training and simulation exercises appropriate for cities.
❖ Improved risk analysis skills and capacities.
❖ Improved human resource skills including the recruitment of educated/skilled volunteers.
❖ Increased fundraising capabilities
The first step in awareness-raising is the need to ensure broad stakeholder engagement. This is
required to understand drivers of risk and existing vulnerabilities as well as to ascertain appropriate
tools and processes needed for comprehensive assessment and identification of underlying causes
of risk. Municipal Board should focus on the awareness-raising activities listed below.
❖ Public education and awareness activities such as campaigns and training should be
undertaken to raise awareness and engage individuals and communities in municipal risk
reduction activities.
❖ Promoting awareness of relevant rights, responsibilities and duties can be important for
both improving the implementation of the existing legal and policy frameworks and for
empowering communities and local actors. Municipal residents that are aware of their local
disaster risk management systems, and individual rights and responsibilities when it comes
to basic services and risk reduction, are likely to be more engaged and empowered to
contribute to their own safety. Municipal Board can play an important role as a bridge
between government actors and urban residents in this respect. Key messages for
dissemination can be developed following an analysis of the legal framework and
consultations with relevant stakeholders.
❖ Campaigns. Municipalities are well-placed and have the experience to take on large-scale
municipal awareness campaigns, and can leverage the power of their volunteer base to
effectively disseminate information. Such campaigns enable a greater degree of
familiarization on the part of municipal residents and stakeholders of key issues. Given
44
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
major and rapid changes in the use of technology in municipal areas, it is important to use
and apply different media through which Municipal Board may want to seek to raise
awareness on urban risk. Different tools from radio to TV and from SMS to mobile apps
and social media will enable the municipality to reach different demographic groups.
Understanding the municipality complexity would help in capacity development that would
emphasize on the following:
❖ Reduce air pollution by upgrading energy use and alternative forms of transport- such as
cycling will be a major shift to reducing air pollution. (Carpooling or cycling)
❖ Valuing local skills and non-market-based solutions- Most technological innovations
and modern solutions are short lived, difficult to maintain and costly.
❖ Create private-public partnerships to provide services such as waste disposal- Private
individuals are at a greater position to provide waste disposal services because they
understand the topography. They can therefore provide these services with less
environmental harm.
❖ Incorporate planting trees and the care of city garden spaces as a key element in urban
planning.
❖ Energy security through distributed renewable energy systems- County Assembly
should enact legislation that provides fair subsidies to support the shift to renewable energy
sources.
❖ Sustainable construction processes, buildings and maintenance- Energy efficient and
more flexible buildings will have long term value. A good example is installing bio
digesters for liquid waste.
❖ Embrace the culture of sustainability- Municipality need to come up with projects that
can build projects that bring about positive transformation.

6.13 Municipal Finances
Municipality’s major source of finance is the budgetary provision from the County Government.
In the estimate financial year 2019/2020, the County Government of Wajir allocated ksh 466, 609,
262 to the municipality of Wajir for recurrent and development purposes.
The Board will require the following to improve the revenue standing for efficient service
delivery;
❖ Lobbying County government of Wajir for increased budgetary allocation.
❖ Lobbying development partners and national government for budgetary support to
Capital infrastructure Projects.
❖ Lobbying the County Government of Wajir for reinvestment of revenue collected from
the Municipality of Wajir.
❖ Identifying and exploiting other revenue potential sources such as land rates, land value
capture and loyalties to expand the revenue base of the municipality.
❖ Establish, staff, train and equip the department of finances in the municipality within 1
year.
6.14 Municipal Areas of Research
The study of cities and urban areas has changed dramatically over time with the new frames of
analysis being applied. Municipal study programs expand beyond looking at the current and
historical impacts of urban design to how it impacts the future interactions of the people. It looks
at how to improve city development through architecture, open spaces, the interactions of people,
and different types of capital that forms a community. Urban Research tests new concept’s
application to the analysis of real problems. It aims to address the emerging challenges and
practicalities of urbanism in the ‘newer’ generation and policy interventions
6.14.1 Research Area 1: Urban Planning
This research area in the Municipality include studies in area of spatial planning for the
improvement of development control. Specifically, this research domain purposes to provide
necessary planning data for healthy and safe living conditions, efficient transport and
communication, adequate public facilities and aesthetic surroundings. It also includes outline
communities and highways as regional planning.
47
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
6.14.2 Research Area 2: Urban Environment
It’s projected that over the next 30 years, most of the world’s population growth will occur in cities
and towns of poor countries. Rapid, unplanned and unsustainable patterns of urban development
are making developing cities focal point for many emerging environment and health hazards. As
urban population grow, research in the quality of urban environment will play an increasingly
important role in public health with respect to issues ranging from solid waste disposal, provision
of safe water and sanitation, and injury prevention, to the interface between urban poverty,
environment and health.
Unstable patterns of transport and urban land use are the drivers, or root cause, of a number of
significant and interrelated environment and health hazards faced by municipal dwellers. These
health and environment linkages cut across a range of policy sector and thus are often overlooked
in policy making. They must therefore, be a focus of urban research
6.14.3 Research Area 3: Urban Sprawl
Urban sprawl or suburban sprawl mainly refers to the unrestricted growth in many peri-urban areas
of housing, commercial development, and roads over large expanses of land, with little concern
for urban planning. Urban sprawl is associated with a number of negative environmental outcomes
such as proliferation of slum dwellings within the urban areas. The research focus in this area will
entail deep study in causes of the proliferation to impacts and shortcomings of existing policies in
urban planning and development control.
6.14.4 Research Area 4: Urban sociology and Economics
Urban sociology is the sociological study of life and human interaction in metropolitan areas. It
seeks to study the structures, environmental processes, changes and problems of an urban area and
by doing so provide inputs for urban planning and policy making. This research area uses statistical
analysis, observation, social theory, interviews, and other methods to study a range of topics,
including migration and demographic trends, economics, poverty, race relations and economic
trends of the urban area.
The research on urban economics involves using the tools of economics to analyse urban issues
such as crime, education, public transit, housing, and municipal finances (taxation and taxation
regimes). It is tied to investigating relationships between urban problems, such as poverty or crime.
48
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
6.14.5 Research Area 5: Land Use
Looking at land use within metropolitan areas, the urban land use research seeks to analyse the
spatial organization of activities within the urban area. In attempts to explain observed patterns of
land use, intra-urban location choices of firms and households. Considering the spatial
organization of activities within urban economics, it investigates the determinants of price of land
and why those prices vary across space. The Urban land use also identifies land-use controls, such
as zoning, and interpreting how such controls affect the urban economy.
6.14.6 Alternative water and energy sources: the board to carry out research on alternative water
and energy sources.
6.15 Municipal Cross- Cutting Issues
The Board and the administration of the Municipality of Wajir are conscious that always there are
matters/ issues that are beyond their capacity or affects more than one organ of the Board and
administration, and may be going even outside the realm of the Board and municipal
administration. The Board in collaboration with County government of Wajir and other
stakeholders will;
i) Establish a coordination unit to spearhead cross cutting issues within 1 year.
ii) Reach out to external clients/stakeholders to amicably deal with issues that are of
broader nature
iii) Alternative water and energy sources.

WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
CHAPTER NINE
MONITORING AND EVALUATION
9.1 Rationale
Monitoring and evaluation of the Integrated Development Plan (IDeP) seek to achieve the
following:
a) Facilitate Informed Decision-Making: This will provide valuable insights into how the
programmes are being implemented, the extent to which it is serving the intended beneficiaries,
its strengths and weaknesses, its cost – effectiveness and potentially productive directions for
the future.
b) Assess Value for Money: This will entail measuring and judging the impact of the
programmes in relation to the planned outputs, outcomes and impacts.
c) Accountability: Programmes’ planning accountability will entail an effort to meet the
diverse information interests and expectations of all those who have a stake in the Sector – the
citizens.
d) Learning Process: This will seek to maximize on citizens’ participation. This evaluation
will be a human-centered assessment of the extent of citizens’ participation, how well
participation is doing and the programmes effects on the citizens. This is guided by the notion
that to live is to learn, and to neglect lessons from life experience is to waste the life itself.
9.2 Data collection, Analysis, and Reporting
The methodology and approach of data collection and analysis will be guided by programmes
and sub-programmes. The Municipal annual work plans will be the basis for outlining the
milestones, deliverables as well as their respective due dates. The standardized M&E templates
form the basic tool for tracking the implementation of projects and programmes.
9.3 Framework for Monitoring and Evaluation
Before inception of any project, a baseline survey will be done to enable evidence-based
planning. Project proposals and plans for the projects identified will, against activities, clearly
indicate the hierarchy of results from objectives, activities, outcomes, inputs, objectively
verifiable indicators, and means of verification to key assumptions of the project.
72
WAJIR MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2019-2024)
9.3.1 Municipality Monitoring and Evaluation System (MIMES)
Monitoring and evaluating performance are a key element of IDeP implementation. The
Municipality Integrated Monitoring and Evaluation System (MMES) will provide the
guidelines to monitor the implementation of the identified key priority projects and programs.
The Municipality M&E framework establishes six (6) M&E committees for proper functioning
of M&E at all level in the Municipality administrative structures.
9.4 Exante Evaluation
At the beginning of every project, an evaluation will be done to document the actual existing
conditions (baseline), people’s expectations and intents. The department in charge of
Monitoring and Evaluation in conjunction with other divisions within the Municipality will
undertake baseline surveys and feasibility studies, and findings documented to justify projects.
9.5 Ongoing Evaluation
The Economist will be responsible for monitoring and evaluation, and will be mandated with
continuous compiling and reporting on the performance of all the Municipality projects.
9.6 Annual Projects/Programmes Reports
The outcomes of all projects implemented within a financial year will be compiled as
Municipality annual projects/programmes report. The annual reports will among other issues
document the resource use and value for money, impacts to the beneficiaries, challenges
experienced and lessons.
