TALA
COUNCIL – NOTICE TO RESIDENTS
Tala委员会 – 居民通知
WATER
Bills are issued every 3 months. In view of the hot climate, residents are
asked to be conservative with water – small steps can make a big difference,
ie not leaving taps running when brushing teeth, having showers instead of
baths, connecting any watering system for the garden onto a timer system.
HOUSEHOLD RUBBISH
Household rubbish is collected from the house on a
Wednesday and Saturday morning. Please
leave refuse in either your bin house [in a plastic sack] or in a sack in a
black dustbin [and take the black bin back onto your premises after it has
been emptied]. If there is space on
the refuse wagon, up to 2 bags of garden waste may also be collected on the
above days but there is no responsibility on the Council to collect
non-household refuse.
RECYCLING
There are recycling containers for paper, plastics and
cans, and glass in the carpark alongside Tala Monastery Cat Park on the way
to Agios Neofytos Monastery.
DISPOSAL OF GARDEN &
OTHER NON-RECYCLABLE WASTE
The following options are available for the disposal of
garden waste:
The
Government operated site for garden waste recycling and other non-household
refuse [Green Point] is now open at
Akoursos, in an old quarry on the left hand side of the road to
Akoursos village. No charge is made for using the site.
However, it is only open on the following days:

householder to the free site above
2
Collection of up to 2 bags of garden waste [excluding branches,
palm leaves and tree cuttings] by the refuse collectors. Note, however, that priority will be given
to household rubbish and garden waste may not always be taken if refuse
levels are higher than usual.
3
Purchase orange Tala Council bags at the Council office if heavy
duty bags are needed. They should
then be left out for the refuse collectors who will remove up to 2 bags at a
time, or taken to one of the private sites, or collection arranged by
Andreas. Any blue Tala Council bags
which you already have should be disposed of in the same way.

Take any bags to the private garden waste centre in Tala [Andreas]
– a charge will be made of €1 for the
first bag, and €0.50 for each additional bag.
The site is open Tuesday 0900-1200, and Saturday 0900-1200 and

Andreas beforehand, arrangements can be made to open up outside of these
times, if required.

Arrange for collection by the above private garden waste
collector – the charge will depend on the volume/vehicle required.
Please also
bear in mind that the private garden waste collector will pick up domestic
appliances free of charge. There is a

supplementary charge.

COMMUNITY WATCH
Following on
from the Police presentation, security information and any security updates
can be found by going to the right hand corner ‘Categories’ and clicking on
Security on www.talanews.blogspot.com.
Everyone is
encouraged to sign up for the Neighbourhood Watch scheme. This does not commit you to forming
committees or patrols, but is an agreement to be the eyes and ears of the
Police and report any suspicious activity or vehicles to them. We have an undertaking from the Police to
carry out regular vehicular patrols of the Tala area. To maintain this service, as a community
we need to show support to the Police and this can be done by signing up to
the Neighbourhood Watch scheme.
To sign up
you can either email your name, address, mobile number and email address to
Cathi on toffee@primehome.com or call into
the council office and provide this information to the staff there.
For the time
being any security alerts will be by email.
On www.talanews.blogspot.com under
Security there is a Get to Know Your Neighbour form. This is available in English, Greek,
Russian and Chinese. If you are unable
to print the form[s] from the blog, please email Cathi and she will send you
the documents. It is felt that by
getting to know your neighbour, this will help make more people aware of the
neighbourhood watch scheme, enable people to notice strangers in the area, or
suspicious activity and thus reduce the number of thefts.
There are
also A5 stickers available for those who have signed up to the Neighbourhood
Watch Scheme. These can be obtained at
Tala Council office at a cost of €1 for two stickers. Proceeds will go to charity.
Suspicious
activity should please be reported to the Police on 112. Thereafter, it would be helpful if you
could let Cathi know what has happened by sending her a short email so she
can liaise with the Police and/or alert the community if needed.
DOGS
All dogs must be microchipped, have a health passport book from a
vet, and be licensed with Tala Council.
The licences run for 12 months from the date of inception.
In addition, you should:
-
Ensure that the dog does not create a nuisance
