Original source: laprovinciadicomo.it

In Brief

Residents of Tremezzina on Lake Como report a shortage of parking due to an influx of campervans. Como authorities are expanding the camping area in Tavernola from 10 to 20 spaces.

Residents of the municipality of Tremezzina on Lake Como are complaining about a shortage of parking spaces due to a large number of campervans and motorhomes. Two local residents received parking fines because legal spots were occupied by tourists, who also use rest areas for cooking and personal hygiene. Residents are demanding stricter control from the administration and protection of residents' and workers' rights.

Meanwhile, the municipal council of Como has approved the expansion of the camping area in Tavernola. Work will begin in spring, and by the tourist season the number of campervan spaces will increase from at least 10 to 20. Mayor Alessandro Rapinese also announced plans to create additional dedicated zones in the city.
