It is difficult to solve the
dilemma because urban council local revenue sources are limited and locally raised
revenues are in some cases as low as 3% of the total annual local authority budgets. In
Kenya and Tanzania the community pay for waste management, while in Uganda there is
unwillingness to pay although in all these countries, Local Governments are by law (Local
Government Acts) are given the powers to charge fees for waste services (Liyala 2011).
