Nicosia municipality declares buildings dangerous after inspections

The Nicosia Municipality has identified several buildings as dangerous during inspections, especially in areas of special character. Trained engineers/technicians determine if the buildings pose a danger and declare them as such according to Cypriot legislation. Owners of these buildings are urged to contact the Technical Service of the Municipality to address the danger. Failure to do so may result in the Municipality taking action to eliminate the risk, imposing fines, or initiating a criminal case. The buildings declared as dangerous are located at various addresses in different parishes within Nicosia.
