On June 9, 2020, Tatu City received approval from the National Environment Management Authority (Nema) for the second phase of its mega estate, covering 2,500 acres.
The approval paves the way for the development of the second phase, with Kenya Wines Agencies set to be the first company to develop in the area, followed by other companies later in the year.
Tatu City is expanding to meet the growing demand for businesses, homes, and social amenities.
"The approval from Nema paves the way for Tatu City to develop on its 2,500-acre second phase," said the firm in a statement.
Evans Dimba, deputy country head for Rendeavour, the owner and developer of Tatu City, stated that the approval of the Strategic Environment Assessment had paved the way for engagement with monitoring organisations such as the Kenya Wildlife Service and Kiambu County government.
"We have already commenced our multi-stakeholder engagement with monitoring bodies such as the Kenya Wildlife Service, the Water Resources Authority and the Government of Kiambu County," said Mr Dimba.
