Arkalochori: In the counter-attack… the earthquake victims – “The “knot” has become untidy with the attitude of the State”

The bodies of Arkalochori now respond with data to the answers of Christos Triandopoulos, Deputy Minister of Climate Crisis and Civil Protection, that the ownership regime has “frozen” the filing and examination procedures of the files after the catastrophic earthquake of 2021.

Both the “Elpida” Earthquake Victims’ Association and the Commercial Association, as they state in their posts, invite those affected to contact them to give them all the evidence that proves that even the files of the owners who do not have or have corrected are not being examined any pending cases in the past with this matter, and with data from the Mortgage Registry.

The president of the “Elpida” Association, Costas Gadatsios, even reported to Radio 98.4 that since Friday, April 19, when the post was made, until today there are dozens of owners who have contacted the Association and sent evidence. Among the files are also those of Holy Temples, which do not face ownership problems.

“The “knot” has been carved into the comb with the attitude of the State. The simplification of the procedures is our request, a proposal of the TEE/TAK and the municipal Authority. The return to normality will never come for us at the pace of Triandopoulos and DAEFK”

“We invite our fellow citizens who have submitted a file and while they have no ownership or inheritance issues and the process remains at a standstill, as well as those who have completed the process and the remainder of the housing assistance has not been paid, to contact the Association of Earthquake Victims of the Municipality of Minoa Pedias” Hope” to the email: [email protected], on our association’s page, as well as on the phones of the members of the Board of Directors. Share”, say the members of the Association in their post on Facebook.

At the same length wave and the Commercial Association of Arkalochori, which invites its members who have submitted a file with professional housing and do not face a problem to send them the relevant evidence.

“The “knot” has been carved into the comb with the attitude of the State. The simplification of the procedures is our request, a proposal of the TEE/TAK, the municipal Authority. The return to normality will never come for us at the pace of Triandopoulos and DAEFK”. noted Kostas Gadatsios.

Appointment by May 15

Until May 15, the Municipal Authority and the Association of Seismologists of the Municipality of Minoa Pedias “I Elpida” give an appointment to the government so that initiatives can be taken and issues that concern them can be resolved, as was said in their last meeting with the deputies.

In their requests: “Simplification of the licensing process, the “green” and “yellow” buildings without damage to the supporting organization to be included in a simpler procedure, the certificate of the property’s location to be issued by the private engineer and notified to YDOM, the ownership regime to be examined once, upon the issuance of the permit by the TAEFK and with its decision to issue the building permit, to include the licensed-certified precast buildings in the eligible constructions, suspension of the auction process, granting of 20% interest-free loans, re-operation of the subsidy platform rent and rebuilding schools.

The result of all of the above is that the first aid money remains unused in the banks’ coffers years after the earthquake and some of it has been used for livelihood reasons or children’s studies which in the end the beneficiaries will have to return.

The Network of Earthquake Affected Areas in the final stretch

The Network of Earthquake Affected Areas of the country – Crete, Samos, Tyrnavos and Mytilini among them – is expected to be ready shortly after Easter – when the relevant announcements are expected, as the president of the Association of Earthquake Victims “I Elpida” Costas Gadatsios told Radio 98.4 .

Municipalities have also expressed an interest in their participation in this, as any help exerting further pressure on the State is considered useful. “We will not bemoan our fate,” Kostas Gadatsios said indicatively.

“The State is not going to change its position. Any proposals are thrown at Kaiada”, he added.
