Illegal camper parking at Terminillo: club president reports chaos, mayor appeals to private sector

Giampietro Spadoni, president of the Rieti Camper Club, says there are only two equipped camper parking areas at Terminillo, while others park chaotically, sometimes for weeks or months, leaving vehicles exposed to sun and weather. He also notes that illegal parkers dump wastewater on meadows and in woods, and some cook with gas cylinders outside the camper. Mayor of Rieti Daniele Sinibaldi confirmed that the municipality has allocated 180,000 euros to create 30 camper parking spaces on 3,200 square meters, and called on private operators to invest in tourism infrastructure.

Lecce: Municipal Camper Area Project Delayed Again

The Vic Salento APS association is demanding clarity from the Lecce administration on the stalled municipal camper area in Baden Powell Park. The project has been pending for 18 years, with six tenders having failed or produced no results. The association suspects that delays may be linked to the promotion of private initiatives, such as the expansion of a private gas station on the ring road. Deputy Mayor Roberto Giordano Anguilla denied any slowdown, stating that the administration is awaiting fund disbursement and following bureaucratic procedures.
