POMIDA SUCCESS: REFUND OF MUNICIPAL FEES UNFAIRLY COLLECTED IN JANUARY 2022!
POMIDA’s timely and documented intervention to the Deputy Minister of Interior Mr. Stelios Petsa (see below) resulted in once again the solution to the problem with the unfair and “heavy” retroactive charges of up to 200% to the owners properties who hastened to reveal the “undeclared square” of their properties to the Municipalities in the period from January 1 to March 23 of 2022, with a provision included in article 44 of Law 4954/2022/Government Gazette A΄136/9.7.2022.
These are many thousands of owners who, due to a “legislative gap » were asked to pay retroactive municipal fees and fines for up to 14 years, unlike the others who declared later they were released.
Indeed the specific owners will get back the amounts they paid after previously submitting a relevant application to the Municipality where the property is located accompanied by the necessary data and documents proving the charge. p>
