Kyparissia Chamber of Commerce protests new water utility charges

The Kyparissia Chamber of Commerce has issued a strong protest against new water utility charges implemented by DEYA Trifylias. The Chamber argues that the rate adjustments, effective from January 1, 2026, impose a significant financial burden on both local businesses and households.

According to the Chamber, the new billing framework includes increased consumption prices, fixed fees, and additional levies that far exceed the actual value of the water consumed. The organization expressed concern that these costs are being introduced during a period of rising living and operational expenses. Furthermore, the Chamber highlighted that these increases are occurring despite ongoing infrastructure issues in the region, such as water supply interruptions, pressure drops, and an asbestos piping network.

The Chamber is calling on DEYA Trifylias and the local municipal authorities to immediately re-examine the pricing policy. They emphasized the need for logic, proportionality, and a pricing structure that reflects the actual economic reality of the Kyparissia community and its local market.
