PP denounces neglect of municipal motorhome area in Achadiza

The municipal group of the Partido Popular has denounced the state of neglect and lack of cleaning at the municipal motorhome area in Achadiza. The opposition claims the site, operational since 2023, is overgrown with weeds and tree branches, hindering its use by motorhome users and causing complaints from residents. 160,000 euros were allocated for the purchase and conditioning of the plot, after which, according to PP, the local government abandoned it.

Estavayer-le-Lac: Campers sue over replacement by luxury chalets

Long-term campers at the 'La Nouvelle Plage' campsite in Estavayer-le-Lac (Fribourg canton) have filed an appeal with the cantonal court against the removal of their seasonal pitches. Operator TCS, which bought the campsite in 2024, plans to reduce the number of seasonal pitches from 108 to 20 and build luxury chalets for tourists (glamping). The campers argue that the new zoning plan was approved without a required detailed development plan. The court has suspended the contested points pending a decision.

Would-Be RV Park Owner Pulling Plans after Local Pushback

Plans for a proposed recreational vehicle park in Waldoboro, Maine, have been scrapped. Cheryl Moir, owner of Country Critters Campground in Tennessee, intended to buy a plot of land near Route 1 and Main Street for an RV park but withdrew the plan after backlash from locals. Moir chose the town of just over 5,000 residents because she had stayed there as a traveling nurse and loved the community. After the Portland visitor center confirmed a need for an RV park in Waldoboro, she looked into the property at 220 Main Street.

Coastal erosion threatens caravan park in Western Australia

Owners of Lancelin North End Caravan Park in the town of Lancelin, Western Australia, face losing their business due to rapid coastal erosion.

Camper area deserted for third year: 130,000 euros wasted

A camper area in Civitanova, opened three years ago, remains empty and neglected. The 130,000-euro investment failed due to its poor location, several kilometers from the beach and city center, near a highway and commercial zone. Tourists choose other sites closer to the sea. Additionally, the completion of a bike path and a bridge over the Chienti River is delayed.

Reopening of Gyeyang Duri Camping Site and water park construction face uncertainty

Incheon's Gyeyang District is struggling to reopen the Duri Camping Site in Gyulhyeon-dong and build a water park there. The project is stalled because two procedures block each other: obtaining a river occupancy permit from the Han River Basin Environmental Office requires budget, while securing a special grant from the Ministry of the Interior and Safety requires the permit. As a result, the local council cut the entire 528 million won budget in the first supplementary budget, and the permit review has been suspended. District officials say if the water park cannot be built, the entire reopening plan must be reconsidered. The original target of reopening by June 2027 is now unlikely, and even a post-2028 opening depends on budget availability.

Spoleto loses funding for camper area redevelopment

The municipality of Spoleto has renounced a €108,000 grant from the Italian Ministry of Tourism for the expansion and redevelopment of the camper area on Via del Tiro a Segno/Ponzianina. The decision was forced by a veto from ANAS, which cited safety concerns due to the site's location under the Flaminia state road overpass. An alternative plan to use part of the Ponzianina parking lot was rejected as it would reduce space for tourist buses. Mayor Andrea Sisti has instructed technical offices to find a new location near the Spoleto Sfera mobility hub.
