Regarding an article entitled "Settlement of Agion Anargyron - Larnaca: Delay in demolition of eight apartment buildings continues", the Ministry of Interior clarifies that despite repeated efforts to complete the demolition, it has not been possible since to date a number of apartments still contain persons who refuse to move and do not accept their temporary relocation to other housing units in Larnaca. At the same time, a problem is created by an additional number of apartment tenants, who also refuse to cooperate.
It is recalled that in order to solve the above problem, the Department of Urban Planning and Zoning has expedited the reconstruction of two blocks of flats in the Governmental Settlement of Agioi Anargyroi I, in order to house the beneficiaries who still remain in the 8 blocks of flats above, while until the completion of this project, efforts continue for their temporary relocation to other housing units within the Larnaca Settlements, or to private housing units with rent to be paid by the State.
In relation to a second publication entitled "Government Settlements: Serious problems in electrical installations - Lives at risk", it is clarified that the Department of Urban Planning and Housing, in cooperation with the Department of Electromechanical Services, carried out an on-site spot check in 18 residential units in the Makarios III Settlement in Kamares and the relevant study of the Department of E.M.Y. was submitted to the Department of Urban Planning and Housing on 19 May 2022.
The study showed that the electrical installations are in good working condition and recommended some partial repairs for three cases, which the Planning and Zoning Department, has already rolled out, while all the findings of the study are being evaluated in order to decide on further actions.
