Murang’a County Government Officials hosted Officials from the Council of Governors who were on a visit to evaluate and document the success stories in Smart City, lands, housing and urban development in the County.

The County Government has automated the Lands systems relating to registration and payments.

These systems have enabled the officers to manage the Land related disputes on ownership and manage information related to land and its uses.

These systems (EDAMS & LIMS) overlap with other systems such as those of revenue collection enabling Murang’a residents make payments with ease.This has in turn increased the revenue Collected from lands to Kshs 150 Million.

The Smart City Programme has upgraded infrastructure in urban areas by upgrading roads to bitumen standard and creating drainages. Cabro works have also been done to improve the appearance of towns, ensure they remain clean and open up businesses by enabling access.

The Officials later inspected the Lands GIS Lab at the Lands Offices and Several Smart City Projects.
