Paphos Municipality to Conduct Studies After Coastal Front Damage

The Paphos Municipality will promptly initiate studies for permanent solutions to the coastal front, which sustained damage from recent weather conditions. Deputy Mayor Angelos Onisiforou stated that the municipal authority cannot ignore the problem and will pursue substantial interventions, not temporary fixes. The goal is to protect the owners of the shops and shield their properties from future natural disasters. Mr. Onisiforou emphasized the importance of timely and responsible action, as well as the priority given to citizen safety. He acknowledged the power of nature but stressed the need to take precautions to minimize the impact. The decision to conduct studies comes after a severe storm caused damage to the coastal front. The Municipality of Paphos seeks to address the problems at their root, avoiding hasty solutions that do not offer long-term protection. The municipal authority is committed to protecting citizens and their property and will work with technicians to implement the necessary projects. Emphasis is placed on prevention and avoiding new problems, ensuring a safe and sustainable environment for the area.
