This is the Annual Development Plan (ADP) for the 2017/2018 financial year as proposed by the respective departments of County Government of Busia. This work plan outlines the priority projects and programs to be implemented in FY 2017/2018 as proposed in the 2013-2017 County Integrated Development Plan (CIDP).

The 2017/2018 Annual Development Plan picks up where 2016/2017 Annual Development Plan concluded and give priority to projects that were not complete in that financial year. The foregoing alongside other structural reforms is envisioned to propel the county to vibrancy and progress.

Nevertheless, the county continues to experience myriads of challenges among them lack of adequate funding and generation of own local revenue. To this end, the County Government intends to address these challenges ,taking advantage of the county strengths and opportunities and key milestones achieved in the FY 2016/2017 implementation period to develop building blocks that are likely to propel us to achieve our objective of providing services in a just and equitable manner to all the residents of Busia.

The strategic focus for the county as envisaged in the 2017/18 Annual Development Plan is in line with County Integrated Development Plan and lays the foundation for economic prosperity for the county by setting out priority areas and consequently high –impact programmes and projects geared towards the actualization of county’s’ vision.
