Taking the problem of thefts at the Municipal Cemetery seriously, the Municipality of Geroskipou has adopted further measures to protect the security of the site.
Specifically, it has done the following:
Reinforcement of the Fencing: The reinforcement of the cemetery’s fencing has been completed, with the aim of restricting unlawful activity on the site.
Enhancement of Lighting: Lighting has been enhanced at points of particular importance, mainly at the cemetery entrances, in order to deter unwanted intrusions during the night hours.
Implementation of Operating Hours: Operating hours have been imposed, daily from 06:30 a.m. to 20:00.
At the same time, a request has been made for more frequent police patrols to respond immediately to any potential security breach.
Regarding the installation of a surveillance system, we inform the public that the Municipality had submitted two applications in the past to secure a licence for the installation of a closed-circuit surveillance system, which did not receive a positive response. Nevertheless, efforts on this matter are continuing, and we expect to receive the required approval soon.
