Fermo to consider making camper parking ban permanent

Gabriele Voltattorni, spokesman for the Co.r.t.a. committee, met with Fermo mayor Alberto Scarfini to discuss issues in the Lido Tre Archi district. Since September 15, a temporary ordinance has banned 24-hour parking of motorhomes and caravans; the administration will assess whether to make it permanent. Voltattorni said violators continue to move around the area and have been fined. The condition of a portico on Via Aldo Moro, deemed potentially dangerous, was also raised.
