Former sports field turned into motorhome parking in Gassino Torinese
Original source: giornalelavoce.it

In Gassino Torinese, Italy, the former Olindo Fiore sports field in Bussolino has been converted into a free parking area for five motorhomes. The project cost €82,000 (€50,000 from regional funds and €32,000 from the municipal budget), drawing criticism from the opposition. Maurizio Gazzara, leader of the Gassino Insieme list, argued the funds should have been used for road and sidewalk repairs instead. He also cited a 1985 notarial deed stating the land was designated for social and cultural facilities, not parking. The parking regulations were approved by a majority vote, but the debate continues.

Mobilization against new camper area

A petition has been launched in Pisogne demanding the cancellation of a project to build a camper area in the Nistoi meadow. The initiative is backed by Legambiente Basso Sebino, local residents, Legambiente Valle Camonica, Italia Nostra and Lipu. Opponents argue the site lies in a zone exposed to flooding from the lake and the Oglio River, and serves as a green lung with valuable reed beds—a habitat for local biodiversity. The meadow has previously been used for zero-impact activities such as scout camps, civil protection drills and leisure. The petitioners claim the development would cause irreversible soil consumption and ecosystem damage. A suitable private facility already exists nearby.

Camper area instead of car parking. Balmetti owners oppose the project

In Borgofranco d'Ivrea, owners and operators of the Balmetti wine cellars oppose the 'Balmetti on the road' project, which plans to replace the only large parking lot with 32 motorhome spaces. The €150,000 project, approved in February and 80% funded by the Ministry of Tourism, includes fencing, an automated barrier, new restrooms, a laundry, a playground, and charging stations. Construction is scheduled from June to December 2026, eliminating parking for the entire active season. Owners fear losing customers and have requested an urgent meeting with the commissioner, considering legal action.

Narni begins motorhome parking construction in Montoro, residents plan legal challenge

The municipality of Narni has started work on a motorhome parking area in Montoro. Local residents intend to appeal to the regional administrative court (Tar) to halt the project. The concession was awarded to Pleinarea of Rome, which will pay 14,000 euros per year. The local cooperative 'Parco del Nera' came in third with a higher bid, missing an opportunity to expand its operations.

Motorhome stopped again on Amalfi Coast SS163: fine issued in Atrani

On Sunday, August 9, municipal police in Atrani stopped and fined a motorhome on state road SS163. The fine was about 60 euros. Restrictions for such vehicles are in place due to the narrow and winding road, where in some sections the carriageway is less than six meters wide. More than twenty fines are issued weekly in Atrani for violations, including alternate license plate restrictions.

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.
