KISSONERGA - CHURCH SUSPENDS WORK ON SYNTHETIC TURF PITCH

 Pafos Live 18 July 2023



On the instructions of the Metropolitan of Pafos Tychikos, the works carried out by the community council in the community's stadium were suspended.

The land belongs to the community's church and the community council claims that before starting the construction of a small football field, which will have synthetic turf, it received the approval of the local church committee.

The president of the community, George Stylianou, said that members of the church committee were invited and attended at a meeting of the community council and after being informed about the project gave their consent.

The works ,which are paid by the community, are in their final form, but the Metropolis of Pafos has issued a temporary decree suspending the works with validity until later this month, when it will be decided whether or not to make it permanent.  

The president of the community, George Stylianou, explained that in essence, in place of the existing clay court, a modern small stadium is being created for the healthy use by young people, while the rest of the space will continue to be used for the other needs and uses of the church and the community, while characterizing the action of the metropolis as incomprehensible.

Despite our effort, it was not possible to receive an answer from the Metropolitan of Pafos.
