City Hall is banking on a new digital system to raise land rates collection that reduces the human factor and excludes cartels. The system is called the National Land Information Management System (NLIMS)Hailing the system, Nairobi Deputy Governor Ann Kananu said the platform will allow the county to realise increased revenues from land rates, as well as improve urban planning. City Hall is banking on the system to enhance its revenue collection in rates and services offered to residents through the Geographic Information System. Nairobi loses about Sh188 billion in uncollected land rates every financial year. With the GIS system, it will be easier for the county to access information when digitised rather than the physical data.
