Original source: Il Resto del Carlino

Italy's Regional Administrative Court (Tar) upheld the municipality of Castelfidardo's refusal to rezone a 2,447 sqm forest plot for a camper van and camping area. The site lies within the protected Natura 2000 site 'Selva di Castelfidardo'. The court dismissed the developer's 2021 appeal, ruling the town's decision lawful.

UCA: 20 years of unfulfilled promises for a motorhome area in Taranto

Stefano Censini, national president of the Unione Club Amici (UCA), denounced that Taranto has lacked a modern, equipped motorhome parking area for 20 years. He stated that authorities complain about improper parking but fail to provide a regulated space. Censini noted that similar facilities are built quickly in other cities, while in Taranto the designated site is used for events. UCA proposes a year-round parking area that could also serve as a support point for civil protection.
