CA has been charged with the responsibility to develop National Addressing (NAS) Policies, the Legal framework and Standards to guide Counties to put in place an intergrated national addressing system. This will not only facilitate implementation of the addressing system but will ultimately contribute to national development efforts since it will facilitate better service delivery to people and business. A National Addressing System is a framework that provides for among others the systematic naming & numbering of streets, roads, properties, etc. and coding of the same to facilitate easy identification and location of such places on the ground. It also involves the development of digitized maps for use say in the management of settlements and urban communities among others.
