Municipal Assemblies | Municipal Assembly in Acheleia

The Municipality of Ierokipia has launched a new form of resident participation in municipal affairs, the Municipal Assembly.

The decision to begin this initiative in the smallest municipal district by population, that of Acheleia, was by no means accidental. The turnout of residents, their interest in their area and the constructive discussion that took place were significant.

We are delighted by the turnout of residents, their interest in their area, as well as the constructive discussion we had with them.

The Municipal Assemblies continue on Friday 15/11 at the Geroskipou Multipurpose Centre.
