This meant that there are functions that are to be undertaken by the national government and others by the county government. The Fourth Schedule of the Constitution clearly sets out the distribution of functions between the national government and the County governments. In particular Part 2 of the Schedule sets out fourteen functions of the County governments. These functions include, agriculture, County health services, control of air pollution, noise pollution, other public nuisances, outdoor advertising, cultural activities, public entertainment, public amenities, County transport, animal control and welfare; trade development and regulation; County planning and development, preprimary education, village polytechnics home craft centers , childcare facilities, implementation of specific national government policies on natural resources and environmental conservation, County public works and services, firefighting services and disaster management; control of drugs and pornography and lastly ensuring and coordinating the participation of communities and locations in governance at the local level and assisting communities and locations to develop the administrative capacities for the effective exercise of the functions and powers and participation in governance at the local level. It is important to note that though the Constitution of Kenya creates two levels of government which are distinct, the two are interdependent and interrelated as such they leverage on each other thus building synergy. On the basis of the foregoing, the County Government Act 2012 provides for the development of County Integrated Development Plan (CIDP) which stipulates the development agenda and road map for the county for a period
