Decision Against the Construction of New Industries in the Vasilikos Area
September 6, 2024
The Coordinating Committee of Nine Communities in the Vasilikos Area decided not to accept the establishment of new industries in the area, including an asphalt plant. The village leaders are requesting the government not to issue new permits, citing existing industries that are underperforming. They also emphasized the need for better monitoring of facilities and cooperation with the Minister of Agriculture. The pushback mainly stems from safety concerns and environmental burdens.
