The Municipal Authority has overcome the difficulties caused by the opposition in its attempt to hinder progress and is now proceeding with the second phase of a plan that addresses the real needs of the countryside.

The Mayor of North Corfu, Giorgos Mahimaris, stated:
“Our citizens can be assured that we are continuing with the same determination: we constantly seek new funding, make use of every available tool, and accelerate projects that had been delayed for decades. We offer real support to the farmer, the producer, and the village resident. We don’t just talk – we act. And more is on the way... Another 5 projects already have secured funding, while 11 more road projects, totaling 30 kilometres, are in the process of being included in the Rural Development Programme.”
