Indeed, decentralisation aimed at empowering people to make their own lawful decisions, attain equitable distribution of resources among and within Local Governments; and ensure improved service delivery by minimising centralisation of decision-making by the Central Government. Decentralisation also empowers Local Governments to generate local revenue through improved local tax collection and making political leaders and civil servants more accountable to the population. Based on the powers vested upon Local Governments by the Constitution and others laws, Buikwe District formulated a District Development Plan in harmony with the National Development Plan. Consequently the DDP represents the commitment of the District leadership to address the needs of the community and its pledge to continue consolidating previous achievements. The major challenges for the District leadership, however, lie in the inadequate resources available to the District which do not match the devolved responsibilities; shortage of skilled personnel to provide services amidst poor remuneration and management. The porous state of the financial resources available to the District calls for special attention if success is to be registered during the implementation of the DDP II. Otherwise, the District cannot fulfil its functions of service delivery and local economic development promotion without paying serious attention to its capacity to mobilise adequate financial resources. Local revenue mobilisation must be positively linked to service delivery to the communities to avoid resentment among the taxpayers. Poor service delivery manifests itself into resentment of the populace to pay taxes. Consequently, Buikwe District has emphasised participation of stakeholders at all levels. The DDP is intended to guide the District to develop improved comprehensive governance structures and systems for sustainable quality service delivery. The plan will also assist the leadership in the District to define and optimally coordinate resources from the different development partners in the District for rational utilisation and maximum benefits. The DDP implores the District to re-orient its staff to think differently and focus on outcomes in order to register improved performance in service delivery. Therefore, on behalf of the entire District leadership, I wish to take this opportunity to thank the ICEIDA for the timely support to the District. Furthermore, I commend ICEIDA for accepting to work within the existing statutory structures and other institutional arrangements, and ensuring meaningful participation of the leadership in the District, which has cultivated a sense of ownership of the DDP II right from its inception. I wish to appeal to all stakeholders including development partners, Civil Society Organisations, private sector, and the community to support implementation of this plan through providing the necessary support to enable Buikwe District Local Government provide adequate and accessible social services for improved standards of living of the people in the District. For God and My Country Kigongo Mathias DISTRICT CHAIRPERSON/BUIKWE iii District Development Plan II: FYs 2015/2016 - 2019/2020 Acknowledgement A participatory and integrated approach to formulation of the Local Government Development Plans was conceived as an appropriate approach to improve service delivery. The formulation of the Buikwe District Development Plan could not have been accomplished without the support of various institutions and individuals. I take this opportunity to recognise and appreciate their generous contributions. I wish, on behalf of Buikwe District leadership, to particularly extend our gratitude to ICEIDA for the funding and technical support to develop this DDP II. Our special appreciation also goes to the various development partners for their technical input during and after the Planning Conference. We appreciate their collaboration and continued commitment to contributing to the District efforts in capacity building, while we implement the development plan since it focuses on addressing service delivery and organisation effectiveness gaps. The technical officials and other stakeholders are also thanked for their input, participation, and enormous commitment during the formulation of the DDP II. I wish to urge you to continue with this spirit during the implementation of the plan. In a special way, I wish to extend my great appreciation to the political leadership of Buikwe District for the hospitality and assistance accorded to the Consultant who facilitated the formulation of the development plan. Finally, I appeal to all stakeholders to generously contribute and participate in the implementation of the DDP II.

It incorporates all views and ideas from all our stakeholders ie. Central government, the District, Civil Society Organisations, NGOs, the private sector etc. This Plan Highlights Councils endeavors and commitment towards the Mission and Vision it set out.Council has also budgeted for operation and maintenance of all council assets to provide sustainability of its undertakings. As the political head of this institution iam delighted that this development Plan has evolved through a participatory consultative process which started with village priority setting meetings, followed by parish level prioritization, Plan/ Budget Conference and through the relevant planning organs. It is therefore my belief that we all own the outcomes of the process which have been reflected in this document as projects and programmes for implementation. Satisfactory provision of the services requires the support of all stakeholders mentioned above.

    CHAPTER 10 NATURAL AND SOCIAL ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES The Feasibility Study on the Construction of JICA / MOWT / UNRA A New Bridge across River Nile at Jinja Oriental Consultants Co., Ltd. Final Report Eight - Japan Engineering Consultants INC. 10. NATURAL AND SOCIAL ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES 10.1 Natural Environmental Study 10.1.1 General This Chapter summarizes the initial environmental examination (IEE) for the engineering options (i.e., three route alternatives, named Routes A, B and C, respectively), regarding the study on natural environment, and potential environmental issues associated with the implementation of each alternative option. Firstly, the current baseline of the environmental condition surrounding the study site is described. The study area is located between Lake Victoria and the on-going construction site in Bujagali Dam, so that the current local environmental topics, linking both sites, were also studied. Technical site inspections were carried out in November and December 2008 and February and March 2009. Based on the major findings obtained from the technical site inspections and the review of available reports, the baseline environmental information, regarding the natural environment surrounding the study area, was collected. Based on the baseline environmental information and the engineering features of each alternatives, prepared by the study, the IEE was carried out. Basically, the IEE was carried out in two steps. In the first step, a preliminary IEE for two scenarios was carried out: (i) Do - Nothing scenario, and (ii) Do – Project scenario for all prepared route alternatives (i.e., Routes A, B and C); for which preliminary scenarios analysis was conducted. In the second step, a more detailed, route-specific IEE was carried out using more specific engineering information prepared in March 2009, and possible adverse environmental impacts that may occur during and/after the construction of works for each alternative alignment option was summarized.
