Then a new meeting of the Community Council will be held in order to take the final decision ".

Mr. Vassilas sent the message to the inhabitants of the Achna Forest "that the Community Council at present has not taken a positive or negative attitude towards the issue".

It is noted that the company (Israeli and Cypriot interests) showed interest in creating a crocodile park in Dasaki Achnas, after the rejection of a proposal by the Community of Psematismenos, which cited, among other reasons, public security and the Municipality of Athienou, which did not respond.

The company's proposal concerns the creation of a theme park that will include about 150 crocodiles. The location for a possible creation of the park is located on the old road Larnaca - Famagusta, in the area between the Achna Forest and Vrysoullos, in the territory of the Republic of Cyprus.
