FOREWORD the Lindi Municipality Is One of the Major Coastal Towns Of FOREWORD I wish to recognize and commend all stakeholders who in one way or another contributed to the completion of the preparation of this master plan, starting with the Lindi Municipal Council who were The Lindi Municipality is one of the major coastal towns of Tanzania and a transit centre from Dar es the mentors of the idea of preparing it and supervised its process as a planning authority, the Lindi Salaam to Mtwara and Songea regions, and the Republic of Mozambique through the Umoja Bridge in District Council who shared the preparation and agreed to include the Wards of Mchinga and Kiwalala Mtwara Region. The town is well-endowed with rich agricultural and other natural resources hinterland, on the plan, the World Bank who funded it, the Consultants (JAGBENS Planners &JMZ Landfields including, inter alia, cashewnut, coconut and the normal cereal crops. Salt farming and fishing are also Ltd), the Lindi Regional Administrative Secretariat, technical teams, the public and private institutions prominent in, around and outside the town. Livestock keeping, particularly cattle, sheep, goats and and individuals. I remain hopeful that this Master Plan will be used in good course and as a tool to poultry is an upcoming production activity. The region has 28percent of its land covered by Selous guide the sustainable development of Lindi town and the Wards of Mchinga and Kiwalala inLindi Game reserve and many natural forest reserves. When talking of the future prosperity of Lindi, one District. cannot overlook a planned establishment within the municipality; a giant LNG Plant proposed to commence in 2020/2021. This plant, which by all means will attract line investments around it, will mark a remarkable convergence of production boom of the town, its surrounding areas, the region and Hon. William V. Lukuvi (MP) the nation at large. MINISTER FOR LANDS, HOUSING AND HUMAN SETTLEMENTS DEVELOPMENT, TANZANIA This Master Plan, which is for the period from 2018 to 2038 is therefore, a timely exercise that will Date………………. 2019 contribute towards unlocking the existing potentials and also creating a framework for guiding the spatial and socio-economic growth of the town. By realizing the future prospects of the town in terms of liquedfied natural gas, livestock, fishing and agriculture,this Master Plan proposesa processing in Chikonji, fisheries special industrial area for the LNG Plant and associated factories in Mbanja area, animal products institute in Mchinga, sports complex and tourist recreational areas, among many other proposals. The Master Plan also designates specific areas within the municipality for cashewnut products promotion. The framing of this Master Plan has thouroughly indicated key land uses to facilitate proper functioning of the urban fabric,including transportation system and a hierarchy of settlements starting from a housing unit, neighborhood, community and two town centres. It further proposesto continue with regularization of unplanned settlements (which is not only to help in title acquisition but serious settlement upgrading), open space systems and conservation areas, and redevelopment of the central area and infrastructure. It is anticipated that when these recommendations are fully implemented, they will transform the physical, economic, and environmental outlook of Lindi Municipality. The same will be forits contingent settlements of Kiwalala and Mchinga wards inLindi District to a better quality of life of the people and the nation as a whole. i MASTER PLAN APPROVAL MESSAGE FROM THE MUNICIPAL COUNCIL The Master Plan for Lindi Municipality (2018 – 2038), which also embraces the contingent wards of I, John M. Lupala, Director of Urban Planning by virtual of powers vested in me under section 12(4) of Mchinga and Kiwalala inLindi District, is a blueprint for physical and socio-economic development of the Urban Planning Act No. 8 of 2007, do hereby approve the Lindi Master Plan (2018 – 2038) the planning area. It reflects the municipals’ vision in terms of goals, policies and strategies for development of the municipality. It will serve as a guiding tool for implementing its annual development plans through public expenditure; encourage public private partnerships and community envolvement as an intergrative move towards achieving the general social and economic welfare of the people. ………………………. The Master Plan has addressed the vision for the future development of the municipality and defines Date ……….. 2019 broad land uses by designating areas for future residential, urban agricultural, commercial and industrial growth. Other designated areas are for conservation of wetlands, including mangroves, natural forests and livestock keeping. It also provides areas for recreational parks, including parts of the beaches and big open spaces. The Master Plan plan further proposes convenient transportation networksand other infrastructure. The Master Plan conceptualizes the hierarchy of residential settlements with housing units around a neighbourhood centre and neighbourhoods served by community centres. The philosophy behind it is to maintain the existing settlements and ensure that any future residential development emanate from them. It firtst determined the existing sparsely located settlements and zones and made relevant decisions on their form of expansion, infilling and location for new development areas.This was by considering the needfor adequate space for roads/streets and proper circulation systems, open space systemsand recreational facilities, public utilities and community facilities. In order to improve the urban morphology of the town, the plan recommends sustainable densities to create compact communitiesof mixed land uses with interconnected subcentres for community sustenance. The aim is to create a physical cohesion that will make availability of basic services close to the people. Lindi is basically an agricultural town. Therefore, all neighbourhoods thatwill comprisebetween 5,000 to 7,0000 people will be surrounded by production areas while the inner part will containsocial services such aseducation, health, commercial, informal sector and recreational facilities.All the communities will beconnected both by green belts and transport systems. The existing town centre will also have a green corridor with a pedestrian mall connecting the recreational grounds. Therefore, This Master Plan is consistent with the development vision for Lindi Council , which is Commented [E1]: Check if this is relevant here! ii aimed at preparing a more sustainable plan with associated development policies that will hasten the PREFACE realization of the objectives of the council to become the best in provision of the social economic services and to empower its residents in promoting sustainable social economic development through The future of Lindi Municipality is a prosperous agglomeration of settlements rejuvenating from participation, democracy and good governance. decades of hampered economy and infrastructure development. The anticipated prosperity is, first, from the fact that the town is amidst the gas drilling areas of Mnazi Bay in Mtwara Region and the Regarding property development, Lindi is still a consolidating urban area. The proposals of this Master Songosongo Island in Lindi Region. Further exploration is underway in deep seaand there are national Plan aim at making it a vibrant municipality qualifying for city status by the end of the planning period plans to build a liquidfied natural gas plant and depot in the municipality, which in turn will accentuate as it will by then have a robust economy. The Master Plan aimsat making Lindi a real centre for an industrial park in close proximity of the gas processing and depot in parts of Mbanja and Mchinga education, tourism, culture commerce and production. Therefore, the implementation of the Master Plan wards. This is an enormous undertaking with immense trickledown effect to the municipal business requires commitment and cooperation of all development actors in and outside the municipality. community and livelihood. The second opportunity is its location (with specific reference to Mnazi The idea for preparing this Master Plan originated fom the residents of Lindi through their Mmoja) as a road transit centre connecting Dar es Salaam and Mtwara, Songea and the Republic of representatives in the Municipal Council.

  • Development and Progress As Historical Phenomena in Tanzania: “Maendeleo? We Had That in the Past”
    Development and Progress as Historical Phenomena in Tanzania: “Maendeleo? We Had That in the Past” Robert M. Ahearne Abstract: Academic discussions of development continue to grow, yet critical engagements with communities affected by development interventions remain limited. Drawing from life history interviews conducted in southern Tanzania, this article details the varied experiences of development interventions among older people and how these affect broader understandings of progress. Many juxtapose their negative views of ujamaa villagization with more positive recollections of previous interventions (especially the Groundnut Scheme), which are infused with what is described here as “development nostalgia.” Perceptions of the past clearly inform the social, political, and economic aspirations forwarded today, with the richness of the constructed narratives adding further nuance to existing depictions of Tanzanian historiography. Much of the academic work on the subject of development tends to focus on the present and the future, despite the fact that experiences from the past are crucial in shaping localized understandings of progress (Crewe & Harrison 1998). Drawing from in-depth fieldwork in southern Tanzania, this article aims to address a point raised twenty years ago by Jonathan Crush: that “we still do not know enough about the global, regional and especially local historical geography of development” (1995:8–9). Conventional histories of Tanzania, and of Tanzanian development, tend to offer teleological versions of the past, reflecting Kelly Askew’s (2006) threefold division of the presocialist, socialist, and postsocialist eras in recent Tanzanian history. Periodizations of history, of course, are “utterly relative constructs, [which] reflect their own sense of the ‘style’ of the historical past” (Toohey 2003:10).

  • Grain Size Distribution and Composition of Modern Dune and Beach Sediments, Malindi Bay Coast, Kenya J.O.Z
    Journal of African Earth Sciences ELSEVIER Journal of African Earth Sciences 36 (2003) 41-54 www.elsevier.com/locate/jafrearsci Grain size distribution and composition of modern dune and beach sediments, Malindi Bay coast, Kenya J.O.Z. Abuodha * School o f Environmental Studies, Moi University, P. O. Box 3900, Eldoret, Kenya Received 26 April 2002; accepted 31 January 2003 Abstract Grain size distribution and heavy mineral content of beach and dune sediments from the Malindi Bay coast, Kenya were de­ termined. Grain sizes were determined by dry sieving sediments; samples represent the upper 5 mm of surficial sediment, collected from the four main geomorphological units (beach, berm zone, foredune and dunefield), during three observation periods, covering the southeast and northeast monsoon seasons. Sediment samples were grouped according to whether they were collected from the northern or southern sector of the Sabaki river. The heavy mineral content of several samples collected from the beach, berm zone and sand dunes was obtained by using separating funnels and tetrabromomethane to gain insight into the mineral distribution, the mineralogy and comment on the economic potential of prospecting for the heavy minerals. The pétrographie parameters determined include the heavy mineral weight percentages and the mineral composition of the heavy fractions obtained using a pétrographie microscope. The Malindi Bay shore is dominated by terrigenous deposits brought in by the Sabaki river which consist mainly of fine- to medium-grained quartz sand. The sediments also contain heavy minerals averaging about 15%, with highest concentration being 67% by weight for the samples analyzed. The heavy mineral suite here is dominated by opaque iron-titanium minerals as well as some red garnet and zircon.
