Larnaca EOA cites backlog and glitches for permit delays

Larnaca’s EOA is running late in issuing planning and building permits, and on Friday attributed the delays to procedural issues, including the backlog of applications and glitches in the integrated information system Ippodamos.

The delays, it said, were “not due to a single factor, but to a combination of historical and procedural issues”, such as a significant number of applications requiring opinions or approvals from other government departments, which were not coming through as fast as expected.
