Urban Planning Projects

In 1989, by Decision No. 3853/19-10-1989 of the Prefect (Government Gazette 688D/08-11-1989), a modification of the urban plan of the settlement of Neraida was approved, specifically in the area of the eastern expansion of the settlement and the hilltop section, due to topographic ambiguities that hindered its implementation.

It has since been determined that the approved urban plan cannot be applied on the ground, as the original plan lacked the necessary cartographic accuracy, resulting in misalignment of roads and plots from their designated positions.

Therefore, a comprehensive urban plan revision study is required. Additionally, in the hilltop area, property boundaries have been extended beyond the limits of the approved plan, although still within the official settlement boundaries.

The settlement of Agios Germanos, located in the Municipality of Prespes, has a population of fewer than 2,000 inhabitants. Since a significant amount of time has passed since the ratification of the land redistribution plan in 1972, and given that the settlement has been designated as traditional, there is a need to revise and amend the approved urban plan. The objective is to provide the settlement with a modern urban planning framework that highlights and protects its traditional character.

A General Urban Plan (SCHOAP) was drafted for the Municipal Unit of Prespes in the previous decade, but it has not yet been approved.

The settlement is also located within the Prespa National Park, established by Joint Ministerial Decision No. 28651/09-02-2009 (Government Gazette 302D/23-07-2009), which designated the lakes of Mikri and Megali Prespa and their catchment area as a National Park. Furthermore, the settlement lies within the NATURA 2000 network.

The area where the facilities of the former Technological Educational Institute (TEI) were developed in Koila, Kozani, was granted to the institution in 1981 by decision of the Council of Ministers. By Ministerial Decision No. Φ479.20/Γ/193/ΣΤ 12981 of the Ministers of Education and Public Works (Government Gazette 62D/05-02-1981), the land uses and building regulations for the TEI site were defined. This decision constitutes the Local Urban Plan for the area.

Since then, through various means (e.g. land grants from the former Community of Koila, expropriations, etc.), the institution has acquired additional land parcels adjacent to the original Plot No. 802.

The total area of the main TEI facilities, including the newly acquired parcels (outside the settlement boundaries of Koila and including Plot 445d), amounts to 190.9 stremmas.
