Summary

The Apokoronas Municipal Council has called an extraordinary in-person session for July 15, 2026 to resolve a deadlock: several candidates for alternate membership on the Municipal Committee received exactly the same number of votes, so the law requires a draw to determine who ranks higher. The session takes place at 10:00 am in the council chamber in Vrysses and will be livestreamed on the municipality's YouTube channel for anyone who wants to watch.

Apokoronas Municipal Council holds emergency session on July 15, 2026

The Apokoronas Municipal Council has convened an extraordinary meeting to resolve a question left open after the most recent vote for the Municipal Committee: a number of candidates for alternate member positions finished with an identical vote count. Greek law requires that a lottery draw be used to rank them when this happens.

When and where

Date: July 15, 2026

Day: Wednesday

Time: 10:00 am

Location: Apokoronas Municipal Council chamber, Vrysses

What is on the agenda?

The session has a single item: conducting the draw to establish the order of precedence among the tied alternate members of the Apokoronas Municipal Committee. The result will determine which candidate steps in first whenever a full member is unavailable.

Who does this affect?

Directly, it concerns the candidates who tied in the vote and are waiting to find out their official ranking. More broadly, it shapes how the Municipal Committee — the body that takes many day-to-day decisions on behalf of residents — will be filled out when substitutes are needed.

Open to the public and streamed live

All Apokoronas council sessions are recorded and broadcast live on the municipality's YouTube channel, so residents can follow proceedings from home without attending in person.

The official invitation and supporting documents are available to download from the municipal website:
