Apokoronas council meets May 26 — beach licences and apprenticeships on the agenda

Summary

The Apokoronas municipal council holds its next regular session on Tuesday, May 26, 2026, at 6:30 pm, meeting in person at the council chamber in Vrýses. Alongside thirteen procedural votes to formally gazette older council decisions, the session will address the tender of beach concessions across the municipality for 2026–2028 and the number of vocational apprentices the municipality will accept for the 2026/2027 school year. A resignation from the board of the municipal development company is also on the agenda.

Apokoronas council meets May 26 with beach licences and training places in focus

The Apokoronas municipal council will hold its eleventh regular session of the year on Tuesday, May 26, 2026, at 6:30 pm. The meeting takes place in person in the council chamber and will be streamed live on the municipality's YouTube channel.

Beach concessions for 2026–2028

The most commercially significant item on the agenda concerns beach access rights. The council will consider putting out to tender the concession of shoreline positions — stretches of beach where operators can set up sun loungers, umbrellas, and related services — at various locations across Apokoronas for the three-year period from 2026 to 2028. The outcome will shape who can operate on the municipality's beaches for the next three tourist seasons, making this a directly relevant decision for anyone running or planning a beach business in the area.

Vocational training places

The council will also set the number of post-secondary vocational apprentices the municipality can host during the 2026/2027 school year. This covers students in the so-called post-lyceum apprenticeship year offered by technical secondary schools. Separately, the council will vote on a specific application from a vocational college student seeking a practical placement with the municipality, submitted under reference number 4363 on April 30, 2026.

Gazetting of older council decisions

Thirteen of the seventeen agenda items are administrative in nature: the council will vote to formally publish a series of its own earlier decisions — numbered 113 through 129, taken in 2024 and 2025 — in the Greek Government Gazette. This step gives those decisions full legal effect. The content of the underlying decisions is not detailed in the agenda notice itself.

Board resignation at the development company

Finally, the council will deal with the resignation of a member from the board of Apokoronas Anaptyxiaki AE OTA, the municipality's development company. A replacement is expected to be nominated at a future session.
