UDA, SLLRDC, CEA mandated to report on Water’s Edge


Water’s Edge

Urban Development Minister Dinesh Gunawardena on Monday appointed a six- member Committee of officials to study and report the developments which could be effected to the 225 acre Water’s Edge property in the immediate aftermath of the Supreme Court judgment on October 9.

The Supreme Court ruled that the transaction which was given to Asia Pacific Golf Course was null and void and that the ownership of the land was to be reverted to the Urban Development Authority.

The committee of officials appointed by Minister Gunawardena comprised those of the Urban Development Authority, Lanka Land Reclamation and Development Corporation and the Central Environment Authority.

The Committee which is chaired by Urban Development Ministry Secretary Dr Prathap Ramanujam who is also Acting Chairman of the Urban Development Authority, comprises UDA General Manager Prasanna Silva, Sri Lanka Land Reclamation and Development Corporation Chairman Karunasena Hettiarachchi, and General Manager Shyama Gunawardena, Central Environment Authority Chairman Udaya Gammanpila and Director General Pasan Gunasena. The Supreme Court, in its judgment, has directed the UDA and the other two state institutions to provide a report specifying the development programs and other environment issues which the state institutions will implement relating to the 225 acre property but Dr. Ramanujam is confident that the report will be ready in a month.

The Minister has given the Committee a month to provide the report and we are confident that we can complete it within that time, he said.
