Kavala's City Council held a special in-person session on Thursday, 2 July 2026, to handle two core institutional items: electing the members of the Council's presidium and electing the members of the Municipal Committee. The session, addressed to the mayor, city councillors and community presidents, forms part of the periodic renewal of the council's governing bodies as required under municipal governance rules. The outcomes set the leadership structure that will steer council business for the coming term.
