The Municipality is not bound by unilateral decisions and the City Council will take its own decisions, in the event that an agreement was indeed signed by the GCO with another company for the organization of the International Marathon, Limassol Mayor Nicos Nicolaides said.
In statements to the Cyprus News Agency, following the announcement that the organization of the marathon was entrusted by the GCO to a new company, the mayor called on the GCO and the current organizer of the city's International Marathon not to proceed with actions that would create a fait accompli.
Efforts until the last minute
The efforts on the part of the Municipality to find the golden mean to save the successful event for the city of Limassol have been continuous until the last moment.
As the Limassol Mayor said, even in yesterday's letter he expressed his request to the two sides, in a spirit of goodwill, within the framework of the recently signed Memorandum of Understanding, to enter into negotiations to reach an agreement.
Mr. Nicolaides expressed confidence that there is room for further dialogue, if done in good faith, adding that where there are disagreements, the Municipality, EBEL and ETAL, which co-signed the memorandum, can be called upon to help.
He warned that the City Council "is not bound by unilateral decisions and that if an agreement with another company was indeed signed by the GAO, then it too will make its own decisions."
