1.2 Historical Background

After independence the then Council were merged to form the District Councils in 1981. European commercial farming areas existed under the administrative authority of Rural Councils.The unification of the African Councils throughout the district namely Nematombo, Mujinga, Kazangarare, Nyamhunga, Dandawa, Dendera and Vuti SSCF resulted in the birth of the District council. Each of the seven African Councils was under a chief. However, in 1993, the Government produced a policy paper, which inter alia, advocated for and resulted in the amalgamation of district councils with Rural Councils to form Rural District Councils, of which Hurungwe Rural District Council is a product of that amalgamation.

1.2.1 Administrative AuthorityThe production of this plan was spearheaded by a Hurungwe Rural District Council, which administers the biggest area in the district. The Council’s legislative body is comprised of 26 Councillors. Previous and now has 26 elected Councillors. The Head Office is located at Magunje District Service Centre, which is some 34 kilometres from Karoi town. Magunje is also the district growth point and central from every corner.

1.2.2 Aims and Objective of the Strategic Plan To provide an efficient service to the community in a transparent and accountable

manner through participation, co-operation and co-ordination of all stakeholders. To come up with an inventory for the district giving equal weight to the district’s

strengths and weaknesses. To promote the most effective use of scarce resources amongst many needs. To come up with the best method to foster economic growth within the context of the

strengths and weaknesses identified in where is (a). To provide framework within which projects can be identified, prioritized and

implemented as part of the rolling or annual plans. To provide a firm basis for co-ordinated decision-making process at the district level. To come up with firm strategies to be employed in exploiting the strengths and

mitigating the effects of the weaknesses identified in (a). To create an efficient communication network. To upgrade already established tertiary and vocational training facilities which offer

practical hands on training for the increasing number of unemployed youths. To construct dams for irrigation in order to diversify crop production methods that are

traditionally reliant on seasonal weather patter alone.

1.2.3 M ethodology After the realization that developmental projects were imposed on the people ahead of their own preferences (a process described as the top-down approach), the government then made an about turn and proposed that instead projects should emanate from the people hence consultative and participatory methodologies were used widely, for the purposes of compiling this document. This later approach called the, the bottom up approach, was found _____________________________________________________________________

to be democratic and included the local people who now have a say in developmental issues/projects that affect them making the entire planning process quite sustainable and reflective of the wishes of people at the grassroots. Therefore it is important to mention that the methodologies used in the formulation of this document very much mirror this concept of the, bottom-up approach. These include the following:

1.2.4 Use of QuestionnairesQuestionnaires were prepared, which were of a structured nature by the Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation sub-committee members to sent people during ward visits.

1.2.5 Desk ReviewIt was that most of the information pertaining Hurungwe District was in the offices of the respective RDDC members, it was only a matter of retrieving and compiling, whilst at times updating of same would also be required. Responsibilities were parcelled out to PME members to collect this information from their offices or from the offices of other stakeholders like members of the RDDC, and NGOs operational in the area. This information was compiled into a draft document after which information gaps and outdated information were identified and the document updated.

1.3 Review of 2014-2018 Strategic PlanThere were no major changes in implementation and review of the 2014-2018, Strategic Plan which was mainly due to the non-availability of resources both material and financial. The review of this strategic plan was widely influenced by Integrated Result Based Management and the alignment to the blue print, ZIMASSET, mainly focussing with the cluster areas and the need for quick wins, gains through rapid action that call for immediate results.

Council’s performance can be summarized sector by sector as follows:

1.3.1 Material Productive SectorAgricultural production has been seriously affected by the current economic down turn. The situation is worse in the communal areas. Planned irrigation schemes were not implemented except for Nyamhunga and Magunje and Chewore Irrigation Schemes.

Council revenue based has been widely negatively affected by changing national policies conflicting with the Rural District Act 29:13. This has seen a number of Council revenue lines which traditionally and legally constitute a huge percentage of Council revenue going to other government portfolios notably:

Mining resources to Ministry of Mines Unit Tax to Ministry of Lands and Rural Resettlement. CAMPFIRE royalties to National Parks.

1.3.2 Economic InfrastructureHurungwe rural district council purchased a motorised grader, however the provision for Infrastructure was limited, with old graders experiencing regular break downs though a significant improvement was made compared to previous financial years. Road maintenance total1686.6km out of430km were maintained by Council.(See also attached road networks coverage for Hurungwe Rural district Council, appendix)

The district water coverage has significantly improved with a number of community and institutional boreholes drilled, the district required a total of ..............borehole repair, ..........rehabilitation, .............drilled, however for the period under review, a total of........were repaired, .............were rehabilitated, ................were drilled, with major strides noted in borehole drilling , though the achievement is greatly overshadowed, considering the vastness of Hurungwe District, and its ward and population to benefit.

(for more information see attached , tables, graphs, photos, appendix)

1.3.3 Social Infrastructure

Education Council facilitated construction and renovation of Matau primary and secondary, with

provision of 5 classroom blocks,2staff houses, 1ECD block,1 administration block, library ,computers, 10 squat holes for toilets ,and renovated 2 class room blocks for secondary by 2014.

Hurungwe RDC opened 3 secondary schools, namely Hwino, Madudzo,and Bakwa All 171primary schools own an ECD canter. Currently, council has 20 classroom blocks under inspection, which are built through SDC

efforts. A number of satellite schools are in the resettlement areas. However infrastructure is way below the required standard and the situation in most of these schools is pathetic as structures being used are mostly tobacco barns. Efforts to upgrade or construct new structures are again being hindered by a shortage of resources.

(for maps for proposed schools, current schools, photos of schools see appendix)Clinics

Council managed to open 5 clinics , namely Zebra Downs, Moy, Nyama,Murambi and Makuti.The following clinics are under construction : Chiroti,Chivakanenyama, Biegest and Masikati and Nyangoma clinic is under renovation

18 council clinics had a borehole drilled, placenta pit, bottle pit and proper sanitation structures constructed

Currently council continues to improve water and sanitation for its clinics, providing water tanks, engines and pumps

Construction of maternity waiting homes is underway in 4 clinics

1.2. DISTRICT PROFILE

1.2.1 POPULATIONHurungwe Rural District Council serves the highest population in Mashonaland West province. Using the 2012 census report, the population of Hurungwe rural district is now estimated 42 7444, males.........., females............. which is roughly 22% of the total population for Mashonaland-West province. Not with standing that the district is the largest in the province, in terms of physical expanse the relatively high population figures can be attributed to inter alia, the influx of people from within the province and beyond searching for good agricultural soils which make up the district.

9. Environmental Scan

a. Current situationDemand for service delivery is increasing yet revenue base is dwindling due to the prevailing macro and micro economic challenges and the transition and changes in external policies. Conflicting national polices and Council by-laws e.g agriculture and natural resources are highly negatively affected.

i. Source of Conflict

Source of ConflictWood permits Tobacco Contractors; Forestry

Commission and EnvironmentalManagement Agency

Verses Hurungwe Rural District Council.

Land Tax Ministry of Lands Verses Hurungwe Rural District Council.Campfire National Parks Verses Hurungwe Rural District Council.Mining Permit Ministry of Mines Verses Hurungwe Rural District Council.

b. PESTLEG ANLYSISIt is very important to carry out an environment scan to the opportunities, risks and challenges that are faced in the service delivery. PESTLEG analysis was conducted as shown in table below:-

Political, Economic, Social, Technology, Legal, Environment, Governance Analysis Factor Positive impacts Negative impactsPolitical All councillors belong to one

political party hence easy adoption of council resolutions

Some Politicians disregard Council procedures, policies by-laws hence conflict between Council, and politicians.

Some politicians disregarding mandate of council, hence derailment of service delivery and development

Some politicians dismally failing to separate politics from development issues

Economic No inflation Dollarization stabilized prices. Good road networks.

Liquidity Crunch. High default rates among debtors High interest rates hence difficult to borrow

from financial institutions. Key revenue lines have been paralysed. Hurungwe district is a vast district hence

needs huge sums of money for roads _____________________________________________________________________

maintenance.Social Local leaders and Communities are

supportive to the development of their areas.

Communities are gender aware. Council conducted sanitation

campaigns. Council has constructed new

clinics. Council managed to establish

schools and ECD centres in the district.

Council managed to drill boreholes.

Lack of resources by communities to accomplish locally identified targeted developmental projects.

In other areas cultural, religious and political connotations are negatively affecting gender mainstreaming.

Recruitment has been reduced. The existing health facilities are not

adequate. There is no adequate infrastructure for

school. The vastness of the district and the wards

hence water coverage is still low. The provision for public and social amenities

is still low.Technological Most areas in the district are

connected to mobile network. 1. Erratic network coverage, in terms of

internet, radio and television waves2. Excessive power cuts.3. Inadequate boosters in remote wards.

Legal Council has external and internal policies.

Conflicting national policies verses Council by-laws and resolutions.

Environmental Abundant natural resources such as wildlifeHurungwe is a tobacco growing area hence many people have access to cash at some point

Low water table due to effects of climate changeConflicting policiesAgriculture encroachmentVeld firesPoaching(animal and wood)Illegal settlement

Governance There is only one political party represented in council which makes passing of council resolution easier.

Representation of women in policy making and decision making is significantly low. Out of the 26 councillors there are only 3 women councillors

c. SWOT AnalysisStrengths

_____________________________________________________________________21

Page 22: Core Values · Web viewCurrently, council has 20 classroom blocks under inspection, which are built through SDC efforts. A number of satellite schools are in the resettlement areas

Economy: The stable economy enables local authorities to make standard budgets that will not be affected by inflation, in achieving at the end of a final period.

Legal: Hurungwe Rural District Council delivers services through a well established organizational structure legally supported by the Constitution of Zimbabwe; a number of legislative and internal policy frameworks that support service delivery that are client orientated.

Human Resources: Rural District Council has qualified staff in Council departments and key positions such as2 engineers, finance, human resources, social service and agriculture and natural resource management.

Infrastructure: Council has good road network which has improved accessibility and mobility for goods and services.

Governance: In terms of the institutional framework the district has vibrant Council committees which operate from the village level to the national which are formal spaces for public participation.Strong internal controls invigorated and buttressed by regular checks of internal and external auditors with an audit committee in place.

Mobility: Hurungwe Rural District Council made significant improvements in the provision for a sound, good fleet of vehicles for revenue collection, problem animal control (PAC), building’s inspection, road maintenance construction of bridges and monitoring social development projects. Council conducts monitoring and evaluation for all its activities and ongoing projects.

WeaknessesEconomic: Current economic status and high interest rates dwindles the provision of

agricultural loans, thus the district relays on contract farming of which the surplus grains are transported out of the district, hence increasing food insecurity. The district has limited resources in farm equipment and tillage capacity and this limits it capacity to be the bread basket of Mashonaland west.

Due to the dwindled revenue base Cause lacks enough resources to uplift the district clinics, schools and other social stranded infrastructure.

Due to conflicting revenue authority Council lacks enough resources to procure earth movement materials and Riggs for adequate service delivery in its rural communities.

_____________________________________________________________________22

Agricultural and Natural Resources: There is too much pressure on the land, the current population density is 15 persons per square and this situation makes the district prone to land conflicts and illegal settlements (squatters). The district has inadequate dip tanks for small and large livestock’s, this makes the district a risk free for stock diseases such as gwembe and lamp sink, foot and red mouth diseases. The district does not have variety for cattle stock, goats and this causes Hurungwe stock to be purchased at very low prices and hence the district is relegated on the meat market.

The district is prone to high resilient illegal settlers who are cutting down trees illegally and unreasonably at an alarming rate.

Due to dwindling economical authoritative base Council lack enough material and human resources to conduct anti-poaching activities and hence the district is prone to huge poaching activities and a declining CAMPFIRE.

Technology communication channels: One of the major weaknesses is that the local authority has poor network coverage.

Morality: The district is struck with high girl child school dropouts caused by the evolving social environment and difficult economic situations at home.

OpportunitiesWater and Sanitation: The district has clean safe drinking water bodies as confirmed by

Environmental Management Agency 2014 annual report, thus there are no threats of water born pandemics.

Power Supply: Though the Rural Electrification Programme under REA is gradually developing, the district receives abundant solar power due to its geological and topological position and as such in rural and urban areas people have resorted to the use of solar power as a subsidiary and sustainable power source.

Small and Medium Enterprise: The district is establishing cooperatives through Government inputs for irrigation schemes and as such the districts’ vast land has given rise to small scale horticultural projects and this has lead to increase of food security which can be increased if financial resources are available with the co-operation of key stakeholders in the projects .

Institutions: The district has a functional vocational training centre which is used to train the youth on a variety of skills such as, building, hotel and catering, motor mechanics, cloth making, welding and carpentry.

Infrastructure: The District has well established road network which makes it easy to access market places at affordable prices. The district as adequate land for housing developments.

Stakeholders: Hurungwe Rural District Council has government support in the form of technical experts that are at the disposal of the Council these can be found in the following government ministerial departments.

ThreatsThe Hurungwe Rural District Council has a number of threats that limit proper delivery of services.

Conflicting Statutory Epistles: A number of regulated ministerial bodies have been given authority to collect levies in local authorities revenue bases and this is ultra-virus to the Rural District Council Act, chapter 29:13, hence revenue base limits the amount of fund set aside for development projects has been reduced.

The Ministerial directive of July 2013 to write off debts affected council revenue flow hence service delivery was negatively affected.

Economy: Due to the current liquidity crisis the economy disables Council from borrowing funds from financial houses and from the government, thus the provision for proper water and sanitation; and other developments is dwindled, e.g. Magunje-Tengwe water and sewerage reticulation system.

Majority of the district lie under region 2 which is conducive for crop cultivation and livestock production, however the prohibiting cost for inputs from suppliers makes it difficult for the district to produce adequate yield to ensure food security.

Global Warming: Hurungwe District is threatened by climate change where the water table is lowering causing drying up of boreholes.

The seasonal shift has resulted to untimeously crop production hence low yields of grains through improper cultivation.

Due to tobacco being grown as a cash crop, deforestation is on the increase in thedistrict. Deforestation has negative impacts on food security and water sources asmore rivers and dams are now silted.
