A new regulation in Turkey tightens rules for using agricultural land. According to the decree published in the Official Gazette, illegal structures, including so-called Tiny Houses and bungalows built on farmland, face demolition and fines. Demolition must begin within one month of the decision; if municipalities fail to act, the Ministry of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change will carry it out at the municipality's expense. Exceptions include buildings that obtained permits under the 'Construction Amnesty' (İmar Barışı) and legal agricultural structures, such as vineyard houses up to 30 sqm on plots of at least 5 decares. Real estate expert Mustafa Hakan Özelmacıklı noted a surge in listings of such plots at discounted prices and warned of risks for buyers of illegal constructions.

Lightship is quadrupling its electric-caravan factory in Colorado, even as 50% of Italian motorhome renters turn out to be under 35. Plus 800 kg of hashish in a motorhome at the Spanish border, Anker's 800 W charger running off the alternator, and Carstay as the mobile HQ of a Tokyo festival — all in this issue.
