New hotel building on the Gonates cliff/Plakias

Kalimera, a private hotel investor, tries to build a hotel complex there. The mayor of Plakias has announced that the municipality is in appeal and will act against the building permit within 60 days. The construction work continues every day.

That is awful, unforgivable, how can this be allowed, and why has work started?
We have been visiting Plakias at least twice a year for over 20 years, and the growth of the town has been well controlled, and hasn't detracted too much from the charm of the place, although that is more down to the many friends we now have in Plakias, and we still love it.
Lets hope the Mayor and the government can halt this desecration of one of the iconic views of Plakias Bay.

Very sad - I hope it can be stopped. So many places are being spoiled by over-development. I guess some people would say, that compared with many other places, Plakias isn't over-developed, but the vast majority of tourists holidaying in Plakias have returned many times because of place it is, not because of the place it could become.
