...Article 220(2) of the Constitution of Kenya 2010 and Section 126 of the Public Finance Management Act 2012requires every county government to prepare a development plan that includes strategic priorities for the medium term that reflect the county governments priorities and plans. This Annual Development Plan (ADP) is prepared on the basis of these legal requirements. The ADP lays a foundation for the next financial year 2018/2019 and sets out the priority projects and programmes that will be implemented to address the needs of the residents of Bomet County. This ADP provides the foundation for the implementation of the County Integrated Development Plan (CIDP) 2018-2022 annually for the next five years.The CIDPis a product of wide consultation and feedback between the department and its internal and external stakeholders. The ADP 2018/2019willimplement the first-year programmes/projects as stipulated in the CIDP.The realization of the county vision will depend on the extent to which the ADPs will be implemented and this calls for concerted efforts to ensure that all the available resources are directed towards achieving the vision. Implementation of this plan will require sacrifice, hard work, self-determination and discipline. I call upon all the people of Bomet County to support the implementation of the plan so as to realize faster economic growth and development. The implementation of this plan will require adequate financial resources. I have no doubt that all stakeholders will work in partnership to help mobilize resources as well as fully participate in the implementation, monitoring and evaluation of the programmes, projects and policies.I know that the delivery of quality and effective services, economic growth and increased opportunities for employment remain serious challenges. However,the county government will endeavour to fulfill the promises made to the people of Bomet County through successful implementation of this plan.
