Environment Commissioner calls for Polis Chrysochous to lead in sustainable development in Cyprus
Environment Commissioner Elias Myrianthous has urged Polis Chrysochous to become a model of environmental awareness and sustainable development after meeting with Mayor Yiotis Papachristofi. The commissioner emphasized balancing regional growth with natural environment protection and creating opportunities for young residents to remain and thrive.
The discussions focused on major local projects, including the Latchi port and Paphos-Polis highway, with calls for swift progress to support development while safeguarding the region's environmental wealth. The mayor stressed that development must proceed sensitively to preserve both the natural landscape and community livelihood.
The meeting comes amid controversies regarding construction pace in Latchi and Polis Chrysochous, involving hotel investments and infrastructure pressures. Redevelopment of the municipality’s campsite, with a €2.5 million budget, has also raised concerns about preserving its natural character. Both officials agreed on integrating development with environmental protection to sustain the area's future.
