Financial Issues Arise for Paphos Municipality Due to Landfill Debts

April 28, 2026

The Municipality of Paphos is facing a financial shortfall of €400,000 due to debts related to the area's landfill. These debts are a hidden liability and directly affect the municipality's daily operations, as there is no budget provision available. The acting mayor, Angelos Onisiforou, has requested an investigation into the matter. The debt is connected to the company Helector and appears to stem from procedures dating back a decade. Currently, an audit by the Audit Office is underway regarding the financial issues of the Municipality of Paphos.
