A meeting to discuss this proposed development activities was held at Temple Trees recently under the patronage of President Mahinda Rajapaksa.

It was revealed at this meeting that plans have been made to beautify the stretch of beach and to prevent coastal erosion. The Project is due to be completed within three years at an estimated cost of 25 million U.S.Dollars.
