Daily Bulletin 30/01/22

 The Municipality of Apokoronas, continuing the effort it has been implementing in recent years regarding the management of stray animals, and also understanding the financial pressure on households, due to the constant price increases in basic goods, The Municipal Council on Friday 28.01.22, discussed two relevant issues with  Mr. Stavros Stavroulakis reporting. The main goal was to reduce the population of stray animals through financial incentives for citizens who either have or intend to acquire a pet.

 One issue concerned the subsidisation of at least 2/3 of the costs of spaying - chipping, etc. of dogs in order to alleviate the cost on the owners who are legally obliged to carry out these procedures and on the other hand to strengthen the efforts of the municipal authority for the  reduction of stray dogs on the streets. The second issue concerned the provision of incentives to citizens to adopt a pet currently owned by the Municipality of Apokoronas, more specifically it was voted to introduce a 50% discount on household water bills to anyone who decides to adopt a stray owned by the Municipality the terms with their well-being in mind.

The Deputy Mayor in charge of the presentation, Stavros Stavroulakis, expressed his satisfaction since both issues were voted unanimously by the Board and it was decided that the volunteer veterinarians and the private volunteers would work in collaboration with the animal welfare associations of Apokoronas. Details of the procedures will be announced in the coming days by the Municipality of Apokoronas

The council continues to choose its officers and the committees have been chosen for finance and also what is called the "Quality of life committee" which deals with planning, environmental issues, licenses, parks and cemeteries amongst other things. I think they will be kept pretty busy! Last night I was at a wedding - more of that tomorrow and tonight I am off to a play being produced in Vamos. "And ever More Shall Be So" By Norman Robbins. I see once again that television is re running the series " A Place In Greece" which featured Brian Saunders and Andrew Stewart Sutton along with their friends Les and Pete and their adventures buying a property here in Crete and their life here in Apokoronas. Love them or hate them it was good entertainment as long as it was not taken too seriously. What happened after the series ended? They are now back in the UK.

The Old Bakery at Georgioupolis ( and more work in the square!)

Image
The best bread in Crete, in my opinion, is that from the old wood fired bakery in Georgioupolis. I happened to call by as they were firing up for a fresh batch of bread I bought a hot loaf just out of the oven. The Georgioupolis bread is famous all over Greece and is taken to Athens. It has very good keeping qualities. Greek people from all over the island come to get bread here and is is expected for locals to take a few loaves if they are visiting other areas. Some paximadi too ( twice baked hard rusk) Andonis mopping out the hot oven with a damp cloth. Work continues in the square Paving is beginning to be laid There are ramps for access on each side of the square Meanwhile, down on the seafront…..
