Leros mayor and municipal committee chairman Timotheos Kottakis called members to an urgent in-person meeting at the town hall at 9am on Tuesday 28 July 2026.
The agenda contained two applications to the Ministry of Migration and Asylum.
- A funding application for the preparation of studies considered strategically important to the Municipality of Leros.
- A funding application for a pedestrian route from the Leros Closed Controlled Reception Centre to the Lepida seafront road.
The invitation said the meeting was urgent because the ministry was expected to consider the applications on the following Thursday, while the committee's next scheduled meeting would not take place until September.
It also said both projects were particularly important for Leros and that the process of preparing the proposals had been completed only shortly before the invitation was issued.
