Eastern Paphos Authorities Renew Call for Compensation over Airport Impact
Local authorities in eastern Paphos are intensifying efforts to secure compensation for damages caused by Paphos International Airport. They plan to present a unified request to the five district members of the House of Representatives, aiming for a coordinated approach rather than fragmented attempts that previously failed.
The push comes amid a surge in airport activity, attributed to a 24-hour operational air base related to regional conflicts, record passenger traffic last year, and ongoing airport expansion projects. Officials highlight persistent nuisance issues such as noise and pollution that affect residents across a wide area, alongside restrictions on local development and business growth.
While acknowledging the airport's economic advantages, authorities seek measures including passenger fees, infrastructure funding, environmental initiatives like tree planting, and support for social and cultural programs. Cooperation with municipalities facing similar challenges, such as Larnaca and Dromolaxia-Meneou, is also being pursued to ensure sustainable regional development and improved quality of life for affected communities.
