A coordinated operation of the Land Service of the Ministry of National Economy and Finance and the Hellenic Police was carried out on a beach in the NAOK (Nautical Sports Club of Corfu) area of the Municipality of Corfu in the center of the city where it was found that a part of the beach had been arbitrarily occupied by a company.
It is worth noting that this is a beach that is chosen daily by, among others, older citizens and vacationers as well as families with children who would not be able to move to other beaches.
The control mechanism was mobilized immediately following dozens of complaints from citizens (by phone as well as through the MyCoast application) and following violations were detected, in less than 24 hours, the illegally occupied space was once more made available for use by the public as all the placed movable objects were removed.
In more detail, during the autopsy it was established that there were arbitrary occupations of four parts of the beach with a total area of 210 sq.m. without a concession contract for simple use where the company had placed 13 umbrellas, 46 sunbeds, 13 tables and 20 seats.
The movable objects were then removed at the company’s responsibility. In addition, a fine is expected to be issued to the company, in accordance with what the law provides, and which is going to exceed 35,000 euros.
It is emphasized that checks continue throughout the country, while intensive checks are already underway in 10 areas that gather the largest number of complaints and for which there will be newer announcements.
It is recalled that, in the cases of detection of violations of the concessions for the simple use of beaches and beaches during the controls, the procedure provides for:
– the issuance of the relevant fine which, based on the new strict law enacted a few months ago, amounts to four times the consideration that the entrepreneur would have paid for one year if he had entered into a contract.
– the immediate removal – within 48 hours – of all illegal umbrella seats as well as structures under the responsibility of the entrepreneur. If this is not done, then the responsibility for removal is assumed by the Municipality.
