Any person wishing to divide land into plots within the area of the Nicosia District Local Government Organization must apply to the Organization for a Planning Permit and a land division permit. During the examination of the application by the Licensing Directorate, the views of the Works and Development Design and Development Department are sought, which undertakes a technical study for the installation of a water supply system (where required).

In order to proceed with the project, the applicant or its representative must:

    • Deposit the required fees and royalties.
    • Pay the required budgeted amount against the cost of carrying out the work (deposit), which includes all necessary materials, labor, machinery, controls and VAT.
    • To procure the necessary fire hydrants from the Cyprus Fire Service based on the instructions of the Cyprus Fire Service.
    • To satisfy other conditions that may arise during the design of the water supply network.
    • To accept the conditions of execution of works.

 

The royalties payable shall be calculated on the basis of the Organization's Regulations in force at the date of payment.

Upon completion of the works for the installation of the water supply network, the Organization shall issue the final bill. If there is a difference in relation to the amount paid then, as the case may be, the difference shall be refunded to the applicant or an additional amount shall be requested.

It is noted that if the project does not start within six (6) months, the amount paid as budgeted expenditure, usable land rights and/or building area rights shall be refunded minus the amount of €200 as operating and other expenses.
