During the Municipal Council
of Vari Voula Vouliagmeni, which was held on November 1, 2021, the Mayor
Grigoris Konstandellos, according to the agenda informed the Municipal Council
about the execution of the decision Α107 / 24.2.2020 of the Administrative
Court of Appeal of Piraeus which annulled the subordinate owners of the Lake
under N4178 / 13 for the preservation of illegal structures that had been
constructed in previous decades in the wider area.
He
also informed about the upcoming process of demolition of the arbitrary
buildings in Lake Vouliagmeni in the short run.
The Municipal Authority, fully sharing the rights of the Recipients of Health Services, has advised the lake’s managers to proceed with the necessary demolition works in this time frame.
Within the minimum time allowed by the
legislation and the relevant provisions for compliance, with the criterion that
this period of the year is mainly of the pick season.
Having
also as a primary concern the public’s safety, but also in order not to deprive
the citizens who are in medical need of the thermal baths, the mayor sent a letter
since mid-October and has been in contact with the management company, to secure
the entry to people in need as long as the works will be in progress in the
lake.
The firm
that operates the lake premises was also advised to take all the necessary safety
measures both for the public and for the bathers of the thermal baths, for
those who have serious medical reasons but also to limit as much as possible
the time of restoration works to the minimum duration.
The demolition refers to the hydrotherapy center part, which span in an area of 110sqm, and needs special static support for the rest of the building as well as two smaller buildings at the back of the lake, one of which is abandoned and the other is a storage space, with a total area of 280 sqm. The remaining about 480 sqm refer to pergolas in the outdoor area.
It is noted that the Lake premises will be temporarilly closed till February 2022.
