Govenment Issues New Orders to Landlords

The Mombasa County government has issued new instructions to all landlords and property managers, giving them 90 days to paint and improve the appearance of their buildings.

In a public notice shared in a local newspaper, Mohammed Hussein, the County Executive Committee Member (CEC) in charge of Lands, Urban Planning, and Housing, directed all property owners to clean, paint, and refurbish their buildings to ensure they meet proper health, safety, and aesthetic standards.

“This directive is based on the Physical and Land Use Planning Act No. 13 of 2019, the Physical and Land Use Planning (Development Permission and Control) (General) Regulations, 2021, and the Public Health Act of 2012.

These laws are focused on protecting public health and promoting safety. Therefore, the County Government of Mombasa is officially notifying all property owners, tenants, and property managers within the county to take immediate action,” the notice stated.

The notice further explained that building owners must carry out these improvements within 90 days from the date the notice was published.

They are expected to ensure their buildings are clean, freshly painted, and generally renovated to meet acceptable standards of hygiene, safety, and decency.

The CEC emphasized that the purpose of this directive is to improve the city’s image and help Mombasa maintain a reputation as a clean, attractive, and safe urban center.

In addition to the painting and refurbishment order, the county government has instructed all landlords to paint their buildings using specific colours—Bermuda Blue and White.

This requirement aligns with the original conditions of approval for most buildings and follows the Countywide Executive Order issued in 2018.

Landlords, tenants, or property managers who fail to follow the new rules within the given 90-day period will face legal consequences.

The county will issue enforcement notices to those who do not comply, and they may be taken to court for violating the regulations.

Mandatory Installation of Streetlights

The Mombasa County government has also introduced another order, this time concerning public safety.

All landlords with buildings facing major roads have been instructed to install functional security lights (streetlights) to help illuminate public spaces. This must also be completed within 90 days of the notice.

The directive, supported by the same laws mentioned earlier, is aimed at improving visibility and security in the city, especially at night.

According to the county, this move is not only meant to promote safety but also to enhance the overall beauty and functionality of Mombasa’s road networks.

The county has promised to share the technical specifications for the type of streetlights that must be installed. Property owners will be expected to follow these guidelines closely to ensure uniformity and compliance.

Failure to install the required streetlights within the 90-day deadline will result in enforcement notices, just like the painting directive. Non-compliance may also lead to legal action.

Earlier this year, Nairobi County issued a similar directive, ordering landlords with properties located within the Central Business District (CBD) to repaint their buildings in accordance with county bylaws.

This shows a growing trend among county governments to improve the appearance and safety of urban areas across the country.
