The county pursued prudent fiscal policy to ensure economic stability. This was guided by Public Finance Management Act, 2012, amongst other legislations such as Equitable Development Act, 2015. The CG adhered to national and international policies and plans, e.g., Kenya Vision 2030 and Sustainable Development Goals, SDGs. The 17 SDGs and respective 169 targets and 230 indicators were mainstreamed into the MTP III and County Integrated Development Plans (CIDPs). SDGs were mainstreamed based on key thematic areas that included advocacy and awareness creation; domestication and localizing SDGs; capacity building; stakeholder mapping and engagement; monitoring and reporting and resource mobilization.

With respect to revenue, the County Government hoped to improve revenue collections estimated to be Ksh 160,021,113 but it could not meet this target.  Measures to achieve this effort included enhanced compliance of finance bill with enhanced administrative measures and sealing of revenue loopholes and leakages. The county further widened the tax base and reviewed most of the levies and charges in the proposed 2017 finance bill.
