PP Lanzarote proposes municipal ordinances to regulate motorhome use
Original source: Biosferadigital

The People's Party of Lanzarote will present a draft ordinance to the island's municipalities to regulate parking and overnight stays of motorhomes, caravans, and campervans. The aim is to organize parking, limit wild camping, and establish equipped areas with basic services (water, grey water disposal, waste management). The initiative responds to the growth of this type of tourism since the pandemic and the lack of uniform regulation among municipalities, which has caused pressure on various points of the island. The proposal is part of a regional plan to approve regulations for campsites and motorhome areas.

The decision stems from a case where a Saxon couple sold a motorhome for €315,000 a few months after purchase. The court classified the motorhome as an item for personal use, which is an exception to the one-year tax rule for private sales.
