Paralimni Lawyers – Reviews – Water Charges – Completed on 29th May 2010.
We have to bear bad news, which do not often do! It is expected that water prices are set to double in the very near future. This is supposedly due to the Europeans Unions Water Framework Directive.
To cover water services the Cyprus water board provide residents will in doubt have to start paying double on their water bills.
There have been talks of a flat rate, water meters and a rate for each district. In England water meters have been installed in each property and this seems to work pretty well. Water meters seem to be the best option we feel as each household uses different amounts of water and why should a family of 2 pay the same as a family of 6.
The general opinion is why should we pay double on water bills when we cannot even drink the water. Electric prices have also soared and so it seems will water prices. Is Cyprus on the way to becoming on par with the UK for high bills and taxes?
In a sense it could be deemed a good thing as people tend to take water for granted, when we indeed should cherish it, especially with the current global climate issues.
The water issue is in the hands of the Agricultural Minister, so we will have to wait and see what the out will be. We do hope that Cyprus will be fair a give us a break!
We as a nation should do our best and conserve water and energy, seen as nobody knows what the future holds for our global environment.
