CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION TO THE CITY DEVELOPMENT PLANNING PROCESS
1.1 The CDP Initiative
The City Development Plan (CDP) was first conceptualized under the Jawaharlal Nehru National UrbanRenewal Mission (JNNURM) as launched in December 2005 by the Government of India through theMinistry of Urban Development (MoUD) to give a boost to the integrated Urban and InfrastructureDevelopment of cities, taking into account the challenge of rapid urbanization, infrastructure and publicservices that under-serve increasing population, growing poverty and city management that cannot copewith rapidly changing urbanscape.
The JNNURM has taken up 63 cities in the country to formulate CDPs under an environment of reformsin the urban sector. The agenda foresees investments and reforms in the selected urban areas throughmeasures as (a) Good Governance (service delivery mechanism) (b) Efficiency in Urban Infrastructure (c)Community Participation (d) Accountability of Urban Local Bodies (ULBs). These are to be undertaken atall levels (State and ULBs) for achieving the mission objectives.
Key components envisaged for a CDP are, Vision/Perspective Plans, 5 to 7 yearly programs andProjects, prioritization of the identified projects, leveraging of funds and participatory based governance.
1.2 The JNNURM; its Thrust and Coverage
The thrust of the JNNURM are inter alia to ensure that the following are addressed and substantiallyachieved in the urban sector:
Planned growth of identified cities/towns including peri-urban areas, outgrowths and urban
corridors leading to dispersed urbanization;
Focused attention to integrated development and infrastructure provision in cities/towns;
Establishment of linkages between asset-creation and asset-management through reforms for
long term project sustainability;
Ensuring adequate funds to meet the deficiencies in urban infrastructure services;
Special focus on urban renewal programmes for old city areas to reduce congestion and
focus on its heritage;
Scaled up delivery of civic amenities and provision of utilities with emphasis on the inclusive
city that incorporates the urban poor and other marginalized groups;
Provision of basic services to the urban poor including improved housing, water supply and
sanitation, and ensuring delivery of other existing services of the government for education,
health and social security; The prime focus however is on private public participation through down top governance
requiring a slew of reforms.
1.3 The UIDSSMT
The Centrally sponsored Urban Infrastructure Development Scheme (UIDSSMT) 2005 is based on theguidelines of the aforementioned JNNURM, combines two previous Central schemes, IntegratedDevelopment of Small and Medium Towns (IDSMT) and Accelerated Urban Water
Supply Program (AUWSP) and covers all small and medium towns as per census 2001 (except thosealready covered by JNNURM) for their planned growth and infrastructure improvement.
Accordingly, The Government of Tamil Nadu (GoTN) have approved and initiated preparation of CDPs

for third grade municipalities in the state under the UIDSSMT, wherein the GOI finances 80 percent withthe state government and the ULB each contributing 10 percent of the costs of development.
1.4 CDP objectives under UIDSSMT
CDP preparation under the UIDSSMT envisages:(a) A vision for the future development of the city or town
(b) Propose a set of objectives and goals which the city or town aims to achieve and
(c) Identify thrust areas in various sectors which need to be addressed on a priority basis in
order to achieve the objectives and the vision.
It thus provides the overall framework within which projects are to be identified and put forward in a 5-year Capital Investment Plan or Programme (CIP). Seen in this light, the CDP differs from a traditionalMaster Plan or Development Plan which focuses on development trends based on land use and relateddevelopment controls.
UIDSSMT funds are subject to implementing urban reforms. The follow up of the CDP are a series of
Detailed Project Reports (DPRs) which outline project costs and strategies for implementing theproposed CDP activities. Implicitly, through the UIDSSMT, a modest traunch of projects are funded,provided the bulk gets committed (sectorally or otherwise) in an integrated manner. The ULBs are alsorequired to make meaningful contributions including market borrowing. The basic inputs and outputs ofCDP are envisaged in the diagram as below:
Fig. 1.1: City Development Plan-Framework
1.5 Essential Features of a CDP
A CDP is expected to have all or as many of the following features:(a) A 30 year horizon, based on past trends, existing strengths and limitations;
(b) A planning horizon to be foreseeable and achievable;
(c) Plans to integrate infrastructure requirements and environmental concerns together with
Land-use patterns and development regulation;
(d) To derive the vision, objectives and targets from socio-economic needs and quality of life
needs as articulated by their citizens, their representatives and other stakeholders from civil
society;

CHAPTER - 2
CITY VISION AND THE REGIONAL CONTEXT
2.1 Introduction
Formulating a CDP involves envisioning the city future through a SWOT analysis. At the same time to
provide perspective to this vision, references have to be drawn from the larger context so as to
demarcate aspects that will help in realizing the vision. The State, district and taluk have accordingly
been taken up for the study so as to strengthen the city vision and are brought out as follows.
2.2 The State Context: Inputs
2.2.1 Political Historic
Politically and historically, the State has been ruled from ancient times to present without being war torn.
Ancient history representing Dravidian culture saw the emergence of four great kingdoms which rose to
eminence and patronized meaningful growth till the 10th
Century. These were the Cholas, Cheras,
Pandyas and the Pallavas. A short unstable Muslim rule, the arrival of the East India Company later
substituted by the British Empire were happenings in the transition to India becoming independent in
1947. The erstwhile Madras Presidency lost Andhra Pradesh initially (1956) and Karnataka and Kerala
subsequently (1967) got renamed Tamil Nadu and has today emerged as the 4th
largest state, with a
44% urbanization level and districts which have consistently been changing boundaries (Map 1).
Long periods of peacetimes in the State have yielded rich dividends in buildings of archaeological and
architectural interests specially of temple buildings (3000 in numbers), sites, including two UNESCO
identified World Heritage Sites at Mahabalipuram and Thanjavur. State archaeology department is further
protecting buildings and towns spread over several locations to safeguard and conserve them. A part of
this heritage is also located in and near the selected town Kayalpattinam (Thoothukudi District) and
within the six districts studied for CDP formulation.
2.2.2 Urban Growth - Governance
Urban growth in Tamil Nadu has shown upward trend growing 145% from 1961 which had 339 towns to
832 towns in 2001 (Table 2.1). As a proportion too the urban population has increased from 27% in the
same period to 44%.

Predominantly urban to predominantly rural districts (Fig. 2.2) indicate that half of the thirty-one districtshave higher proportion of (>50%) of urban population. Of these six of them are aligned along the Keralaborder, three surrounding Chennai and including it are aligned along the Bay of Bengal coastline, withThoothukudi lower down. This leaves the other four as landlocked districts of Madurai, Salem, Erode andTiruchchirirapalli which are more urbanized.

less chance to magnify if dealt with early and into a monitored future.Some notable indicators are the States sex ratio of 986 females per 1000 males, growth rate of11.2%decadal, population density of 478 persons per square km, and a slum population of 16.5%.The sex ratio and growth rate have increased overtime which is a positive trend. Census 2001 providesrecords of slum population in towns with 50,000+ population. Slums are the downside to urban growth.
Tamil Nadus economy and infrastructure is well placed for future growth. It has 24 National highways of2,000 km length, a rail length of nearly 7,000 km with 690 railway stations, 3 major and 8 other ports andair links to Chennai across 20 countries with more getting added with the new aviation policies of thegovernment.
2.2.3 Location - Geography
Tamil Nadu is the southernmost Indian State withthe Bay of Bengal on its east, Indian Ocean on itssouth, Western Ghats on its west and theadjoining states of Karnataka, Andhra Pradeshand Kerala on its north and west. Its geography isdiversified and has coastal plains, tropical forests,
river valleys and hills.
The state is defined by Kanyakumari at southerntip, Pulicat lake at the northern, its eastern tip isKodikarrai (point Calimere) and the western tip isMadumalai Sanctuary, with their respective
latitudes at 8 5 N and 13 35N and therespective longitudes at 80 20 East and 71 15E. Its five physiographic divisions aremountaneous (Kurinji), forests (Mullai), Arid(Palai), fertile (Marudham) and coastal (Neidhal).Eastern ghats of low rocky hills are anothermountain chain in the state. Main river Cauvery
760 kms long flows through the entire breadth ofthe state, with other rivers being Palar, Pennar,Vaigai and Tamirapani.
The state has the highest urbanization level, isthe sixth most populous and the eleventh mostdense. A number of urban corridors have begunto emerge along with large urban agglomerations.Madurai is one of such urban growths. The statealso has a number of national highways whichimpact its development (NS NH7 being one ofthem)
2.2.4 Demography Economy
The state occupational structure shows 50% primary sector workers, 23.6% secondary and 26.1%tertiary sector workers. Share of agricultural income in the GDP has declined from 25% to 18% during1994-04, with a consequent rise in urban incomes in the other two sectors.
Literacy levels are getting raised, there is improved life expectancy at birth and fertility rates are decliningwhich spells out human development achievement. Ditto for gender development (Table 2.2). Otherreferences for Sex ratio, Literacy, Female literacy and % Main workers can be drawn for the 6 studieddistricts as given in Table 2.3 for getting a comparative statistics.

High literacy, poverty and high marginal workers in the Worker Participation Rate (WPR), a restructuringeconomy going away from primary sector, and a fast urbanizing community pose questions for furthercourse in policy. Diversifying agriculture, entrepreneurship in farm and non-farm based activities;exploring tourism as a growth agenda for the states natural/manmade heritage tourism appear viableoptions to promote. Other non invasive, service-based economy should be appropriate and put on offer.

Rivers Tamirabarani, Vaipar, Manimuthur and Karumeni irrigate the district. NH7, the NS corridor passespartially through the district at the western side; besides NH 7A connecting Tirunelveli to Tuticorin; SH 44from Sankarankovil to the coastal end at Vembar; SH 40 from Tirunelveli to Kayalpattinam which is thecoastal municipality for which the present CDP is being formulated. As the district is fairly large, the roadand rail network is more dense and organized at the southern end of the district, towards the urban taluksThiuchendur and Thoothukudi. (Map 8)
The district has a coastline of 164 kms, 2.5% land under forests, 41% under crops with around 70%workers in agriculture occupation. Important crops are cholam, cumbu, ragi, varagur, samai and cash
crops of cotton, chillies, sugarcane and groundnut. Palmgur or jaggery, Banana and vegetables arecultivated in the taluks of Tiruchendur, Srivaikundam, Sattankulam and Vilaithikulam. A large amount ofland, attributed as waste due to the sea air, is also where salt production takes place contributing30% of the salt produced in the country. Tuticorin Port is a major catalyst for GDP growth in theregion exporting raw material and products to 20 international countries. Certified as Internationalstatus, it handles 1600 cargo vessels and 2 crore tonnes of cargo.
Prawn culture, deep sea fishing, pearl and chunk fishing are other economies practiced in thedistrict and technical support in the form of education/training/research institutions/fishseedfarms/processing is made available through the public sector.

2.3.2 Urban Growth Governance
Thoothukudi district has 2 Municipalities (Thoothukudi and Tiruchendur), 26 towns and 436 villages in thedistrict. Thoothukudi district is primarily rural (42.3% urban population against 57.7% rural) buturbanizing. Most urban units are clustered along the coast in the two urban taluks with urban growthmoving inwards along state or national highways. Urban growth is very sparse towards the mid and north
of the district. Total population in the district is 15,72,273. Ottapidaram is totally a rural taluk, withSathankulam, Ettayapuram and Srivaikuntam also showing high proportion of rural population (Table2.5).
Kayalpattinam, the municipality under reference is one the towns aligned long the coast facing Gulf ofMannar as does Tiruchendur, the other municipality in the Taluk, which is also the taluk headquarter.There are 3 such urban areas which are coastal, another three (Arumganeri, Kanam and Athur) whichagglomerate with the former, and the remaining three (Nazerath, Thenthiruperai and Alwarthirunagiri)which are more westwards, of which two abut the reserve forest area. (Map 10).
Urban growth in thedistrict is based onthe economy from
Industry, Port activity,Salt pans andAgriculture. Power,Fisheries, IT andChemicals are themain domain forIndustry; Kovilpattiand Thoothukudi arelocations for theIndustrial estates setup by the state
government(SIDCO/SIPCOT);
Ottapidaram talukproduces readymadegarments; a numberof small scaleindustries (2500units), are engaged inproduction of variousitems from bothresources based andother material.
The Port (3rd
largestcontainer terminal in
India), facilitatesexport to several
internationaldestinations and isbeing perceived as amajor catalyst for IT,Tourism and trade
growth in the regionfollowing the laying of
the undersea cable landing station (initial bandwidth 20 going to 160 gigabits per second) as well as theexecution of the Sethusamudram project.
Agriculture products, as paddy, cotton, groundnut, fruits (bananas) which are grown in abundance add to

2.3.3 Historic Political
Historically, Thoothukudi town was known for its pearl fishery and shipbuilding activity, and was the firstport of the country to launch a Swadeshi ship whilst the country was under British rule. The seaportdeveloped during the Pandyan kingdom was taken over, in 1548, by the Portugese; later in 1658 it wascaptured by the Dutch and in 1825 ceded to the British. The lighthouse built in 1842 marked the onset ofthe harbour activity.
The district has deep associations with leaders, poets, warriors such Chidambaram Pillai, SubramanyaBharti, Kattabomman who were great visionaries.
The name Thoothukudi is claimed to have been derived from Thoorthu (dig) and Kudi (drink) implying
wells as being the chief source of drinking water. Another interpretation is thoortha being land reclaimedfrom sea, and, kudi meaning colony or settlement. Tuticorin was what the Dutch named the town as.

The association of the town with pearl fishery began in the 16th
century (the Nayaks of Madurai, theNawabs of Karnataka, The Portuguese and the tribes known as Paravars who were the traditionalfishermen).
Pearl oysters attach to pearl banks (locally called parrs) and have been known to exist at Keelakarai(which is one of the ten reference municipalities under this CDP formulation exercise), Thoothukudi and,
Kanyakumari ; the parrs of Thoothukudi have outnumbered other sites.
The seashore temple devoted to Lord Subramanya at Tiruchendur is a pilgrim centre, considered oneof the six abodes of the lord which also marked his victory over the demon Surapadma. It finds mention inancient literature of the Tamil Sangam period.
The district is suffused with heritage. Between Tirunelveli and Thiruchendur there are 9 out of the 108Vishnu temples, which collectively are called Aalwar Nara Tiruppatikal, the first being at Srivaikunthamand the 9
that Aalwar Tirunagari.
Some notable pilgrim centres, sites and historic places of note are: Nazhi Kinaru a well with sweet water central to another one which is brackish Sri Sankara Rameswarar temple (established during Pandyan Kings) Sri Vaikundapathy temple (established during Pandyan Kings)
Panimaya Matha - Church built by Portugese in 1714 Manapad - Roman Catholic Church with cross brought from Jerusalem Kzhugu Malai jain cave temples known for its Jain architecture Murugan temple of Kalugasalamurthy Kovil built in 18
thcentury

Korkai Port, now 5 kms inland, an ancient port city during Pandyan Kings.
Athichanallur, archaeological remains of a civilization that existed near river Tamirabarani.
2.3.4 Demography-Economy-Human Resource
Of all the districts being studied, Thoothukudi is the third largest populated, second largest in area and inthe decadal growth rate (Table 2.3); has the highest sex ratio and literacy including female literacy. Thereis need to perk-up the proportion of main workers by improving employment prospects in the district.
Comparative slum profiles show Thoothukudi as having a small proportion of slum dwellers (Table 2.6)

The district economy is primarily rural with six of the eight being rural taluks.
Percent workers to percent total population has a variation with urban taluks sharing 35-36 percentagainst rural taluks, where it varies between 40 to 58 percent .
Primary sector workers in urban taluks is only 8 percent for Thoothikudi and 27 percent forTrichendur with Kayalpatinam and Santhakulam not showing large variation.More rural taluks areSrivaikuntam and Ettayapuram. Very highly rural taluks are Vilathikulam and Ottapidaram.
2.3.5 Infrastructure-Industry
Industrial growth has been encouraged in the district. Twelve major industrial units (SPIC, TAC,Dharangadhra Chemical Works, Sterlite, Madura Coats, Loyal textiles, Kilburns are some big names) andquite large number of small scale units are registered, besides the PSUs such as Thermal Power Station,Port Trust and Heavy Water Plant. Salt pans add to the production value (70% of the State and 30% ofthe Countrys needs are met from here). Granite mining, pearl culture, sea food and port based economyare other add ons.
The position with regards to infrastructure is as follows:
An average water supply of 30-40 LPCD in urban units, with Thoothikudi consuming a total of 153 LL
whilst Tiruchendur was 19 LL. The population being denied access to potable water supply rangesfrom 10% (in municipalities) to 45 percent in town panchayats.
There is no sewerage system, a total quantity of 239 LL of sewage is generated in the urban areas.
SWM : 59 MT with 83 percent efficiency. Being partially industrial in some areas, the compostablewaste is 52% with other components of waste being rubber and leather (10%), plastic (11%), glass(9%), metal brick stone (6%), wood (6%).
Environmentally, the large scale industry has marked 17 as red category, and 9 as orange category,requiring control measures. Industrial emissions and air pollution are consequences.
Discharge of industrial effluents affects surface and ground water as well as agriculture production,shrimp farming and pawn culture.
A number of aqua culture units along the coastal area are functioning in the district.
20 island in the Gulf of Mannar (under control of wild life department of the State Government) are ofdeclared Biosphere Reserve and Natural Marine Park. The group of islands constitutesThoothukudi, Vembar, Keelakarai and Mandapam, now endangered due to a deteriorating coral reefeco-system, especially at Van, Koswari, Vilangushuli and Karashuli falling under the Thoothikudigroup.
Tsunami also can cause irreversible damage to the coastal environment besides the physical devastationthat was caused to 23 coastal villages and fisherman households.

2.3.6 Historic Footprint- Heritage
Heritage resources in the district as discussed earlier are briefly stated here: The state department of archaeology have some protected monuments in Ettayapuram
and Ottapidaram taluks of the District.
Tiruchendur temple, a renowned one devoted to Lord Muruga is located on the edge of
the sea, is presumed to have been built 1000 years ago and had constantly beenimproved by the Pandya and Chola kings with the complex taking 72 years to build. Thetemple structure is gigantic with a gopuram (300 yrs old) in the west.
Srivaikuntam and Alwarthirunagari Vaishnav temples of ancient origin (dates notknown).
Nava Thirupattis; 9 of the 108 holy shrines devoted to Lord Vishnu. Settlement within a 10 high mud wall enclosure where women (called Kattai Pillaimars)
have never seen the outside world.
Panchalamkurichi, fort of Kattaboman (17th
century).
Manapad: Remnants of the Holy Cross from Jerusalem enshrined in this 400 year oldchurch.
Kazhugumalai: Jain temples with bas relief sculptures and a nearby rock cut cavetemple.
Kulasekarapattinam: Muttaramman temple and site of the enactment of the war ofRamayana every year on the beach during Dussera festival.
Birth places of Chidambaram, Kattaboman and Bharathiyan.
A large population of floating tourists visit pilgrim sites, beaches, see marine life or are business visitors.There is year round tourist activity in the cities during the festive period or otherwise. Yet therehas not been sufficient marketing for tourism growth or installing tourism infrastructure atpopular places.
2.4 Relevant District Profile
The district is slightly skewed towards a rural composition, yet there is insufficient irrigation facility
through surface water (rivers/canals). Tanks and wells remain commonly used sources. River systems ofTirunelveli district help irrigate some areas in taluks Vilathikulam, Sathankulam and Tiruchendur.Cropped area is 40% and forests cover 2.4%. About 38% land cannot be put to cultivation purpose; someof the soil is sandy coastal alluvium (27%) followed by red loam (21%) and black soil (14%). Red loamsoil areas (near Tiruchendur) are locally believed to be free of crimes or land thefts and are good for palmtrees, cashew and other indigenous dry arid area forests. Important agricultural crops are Paddy,Cereals, Pulses, Sugarcane / Jaggery, Groundnut and Gingelly, whilst cotton is an non-agricultural crop.Industry, salt production and marine economy are important to the district.
Towns tend to cluster in the coastal southern part whilst the northern end (adjoining Virudhunagardistrict) has sparsely located urban areas. Punnakayal, near Kayalpattinam is a centre for fish curing.Thoothukudi is the main centre for deep sea fishing. It also has the States largest Thermal power station;Industries are in Kovilpatti (NH 7 passes through), Thoothukudi and Puthiampur Village (Ottapidaramtaluk). Attempts are made to industrialize areas on the Western side of the district and to avail access byNH7A and SH40 from Tirunelveli.
Kayalpattinam is closer to Tiruchendur, accessible by a Railway line as well as SH 40 comingfrom Tirunelveli. It is located in the heartland which produced a number of freedom fighters during theBritish regime.
2.5 Taluka Context: Inputs
Thoothukudi, the most urbanized, is also the highest populated; its location on the coast as an importanthistoric port (now modernised to international standard), and as the terminal end of the railway line aswell as NH7A has proved advantageous to the taluk growth. Tiruchendur on the other hand, has historicsignificance and regional recognition as a Temple town devoted to Lord Muruga and located on the sea
face, unusual, as Murugan temples are sited on hills/.forests. Presumed to be ancient (from earlyChristian era) and recorded in the hymns and poetry of Tamil Sangam period, it is an important

pilgrimage. Together, these two constitute the focal point of their taluka. Kayalpattinam, the referenceULB, lies in Tiruchendur taluk (close to the headquarter town Tiruchendur) is very near to where RiverTamarabarni meets the sea.
Along the districts coastline, various religious groups are historically linked to settlements; Manpad hasassociations with Christianity, Kayalpattinam is Muslim dominated and Thiruchendur, Hindu. With
common objectives of dependence on the sea the religious configurations remain harmonious in allsectors of the economy, occupations remaining central to social structures.Positioning taluka futures has become a dilemma in view of a declining primary sector and analmost oblivion pearl fishing/deep sea fishing/marine resource economy.Marine activists advocate non-interference with marine eco-systems which have destroyed largereserves of coral. The coast is now declared National Marine Park.
Industrialization plays havoc and inspite of Pollution Control Laws/Acts, industrial effluentsdischarged find their way into the sea or leach into groundwater.High literacy in the district points to preference for service sector jobs. The taluk shows a continuity ofurban areas along the sea coast. Together taken, these factors suggest the following:
1) The Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) should be adhered strictly and empty stretches should
remain natural, unurbanized and replete with sand dunes. Protection is possible bypreventing encroachment of fishermen huts. The study has observed that traditional patterns offishermen settlement would have to be substituted by new non-invasive settlements away fromthe sea front. Urbanization is accompanied by real estate demand for sea front locations whichare prime in value. Fishermen Housing, under some pretexts, is usurped as real estate, asexamples in Maharasthra and Goa have shown.
2) A second zone be demarcated along sea fronts (which are available and accessible to publicthe sea face being perceived as public good to be enjoyed by all) which are recreational inuse (parks/beaches/playgrounds) Zones at S.No.1 and 2 would be NON-VIOLABLE Zones.
3) Shelter Zones/Structures be sited after due safety assessment considering disaster pronenessof the east coast (Tsunami/earthquake) for Disaster Management purposes.
4) Organized Fisherman stations along the coast be instituted which provide meteorologicaldata/other inputs to fishermen, as well as keep account of numbers gone to sea. This
would be a watchdog/safety enabling station function preferably under joint control ofcoast guards-state govt.-fishermen associations.
5) Tourism Infrastructure, as sea side resorts for high-middle and low end tourists (eco-tourism/business/pilgrim) should be encouraged at a sufficient scale backed with adequatemarketing to allow Tourism growth. North Indians, many who have never seen the sea stateBombay as a favoured destination. This segment could be tapped by offering multipleopportunities and attractive discount for short and long stay holidays at quaint seaside villageenvironment resorts as never been before environment.These resorts integrated with travel and sightseeing in nearby areas would be popular tobudget tourists who form volumes in the business.
6) Sea fronting urban units almost like a chain should be planning for shared infrastructureprovision, such as roads/water supply/solid waste management/sanitation and concur onfinancial /other arrangements in making this a reality.
7) Sea fronting urban units should explore sufficient local economic base which is service sectororiented, environmentally less damaging, involves and empowers women (in view of thehigh sex ratios in all the taluks), and can absorb a highly literate population. Specialemphasis should be placed on employment policies in the district/taluk/towns.
8) Make possible a connection between local livelihoods- heritage and tourism womensempowerment- institutions imparting practical skills- seafront strategies tourist infrastructure.
2.6 Inception Stage and the SWOT Analysis
The consultants visited Kayalpattinam on September 21, 2007 for a reconnaissance of the Municipalityarea and for a consultative meeting cum workshop with the Chairman, Councilors and other majorstakeholders. Another meeting cum workshop was held in Madurai on October 16, 2007 for presentingthe inception report, under the Chairmanship of JCMA where ULB Chairman and state level concerned
functionaries were apprised, and views consolidated for the onward exercise of preparing the Draft CDP.A record of these meetings is provided in Annexure - I.

STRENGTH
Kayalpattinam ULB is a part of the estuary of River Tamrabarani which discharges into thesea and therefore has part of natures wonders within the jurisdiction. This can be a strengthfor the town yet imposing responsibility for marine life/beach head and other environmentalsafeguards the town must take.
Railway line passes through the town before terminating at Tiruchendur.
The town has metalled road network connecting to SH 40 which goes between Tirunelveli andTiruchendur.
Presence of diverse religious communities has been continuously harmonious.
Its beach is available to everyone with some parks developed alongside by the ULB. Thetown having a sea face is an advantage.
Presence of large industrial unit (the DCW Chemical works) helps in generating jobs forworkers.
Diamond and gold jewellery making units are well established as a local business adding to
the city income. The town has historical connections and is known to be an ancient capital enjoying prosperity.
Later, in 842 A D it is stated to be under Khilji dynasty and is reputed to draw its name fromKahira in Egypt which later distorted to its present name.
WEAKNESS
Low level of infrastructure availability, especially poor sanitation, solid waste disposal,insufficient street lights, poor drainage and roads.
Lack of proper shopping centres of all hierarchies as, weekly markets, convenience shops,shopping centre etc.
Very high proportion of slum residents, slum population being 25% of all population.
Lack of planned utilities and facilities, as, cultural centres/libraries/sports stadium.
Lack of effective landmark buildings/lighthouse/icon symbol city identity or sense of pride.
Absence of recreational facilities.
OPPORTUNITY
Special integrated market for gold-silver-diamond jewellery making, displaying andenlargement into a regional centre for shopping
