Budgeting

Budgeting is the process of deciding how public resources will be allocated and moneys spent during the following fiscal year. Led by the County Treasury, it starts in July with the Budget Circular and culminates in June with the County Assembly approving the budget estimates and authorizing the Executive to spend.

With County Finance and Economic Planning leadership, Departments and respective Sector Working Groups are involved throughout the year, from reporting on progress/spending to date, to prioritizing and costing investments for the Annual Development Plan (ADP), negotiating sector and program ceilings in the County Fiscal Strategy Paper (CFSP), and preparing detailed and realistic Budget Estimates.
