Scope of Work:
The proposed project “Setting up of an Industrial and commercial park in Nyamira” essentially consists of the construction of a 3000 acre park with both industrial and commercial facilities including hotels, conference facilities, shopping malls, recreational parks, social halls, cinema halls and solid waste management facilities.
Development Objectives:
The proposed project essentially aims at developing a state of the art micro-city plant at a location called Sironga in Nyamira County. The setting up of the city of a will definitely be an answer to the long-standing aspirations of the people of the lake basin region and beyond.
Project Benefits
The people of the lake region economic block will be the principal beneficiaries of the proposed park, enabling them to get the requisite social amenities. This should greatly contribute to improved social outcomes in the region and thereby promote economic growth as it strives to create wealth in the region. The city will also create employment. Further, the proposed plant is expected to serve the wider lake basin region with about 10 counties, and an estimated population of 10.5 million people. There is no commercial and business park of this magnitude currently in the entire region.
Ongoing Initiative:
Under the County development fund, an initiative has been proposed for construction of a micro city. However, with the limited resource allocation under the County exchequer and considering the magnitude of the proposed project, the county funds scheme will not be enough to complete the proposed project. Funding under the PPP agreement is a viable option for starting and completing of the proposed project and hence the proposal.
Sustainability:
Great Cities have Great Parks! Major cities across the nation and world recognize the valuable benefits parks provide. In some cities, parks are defining features. Parks promote increased physical activity and mental well-being, provide venues for community building, enhance tourism and boost the local economy, positively impact real estate values, support ecosystem functioning and biodiversity, reduce air pollutants, provide storm water management, and contribute to cooling effects in urban areas.
As Nyamira transforms from a county headquarters to a major regional commercial and urban center, a connected network of urban parks will help to distinguish the lake basin region as a great region and bring benefits to the local economy and quality of life.
