In Brief
In Italy and France, disputes have erupted over paid motorhome parking: Castrocaro introduces a fee, while residents of Saint-Martin-de-Londres protest a new site.
In the municipality of Castrocaro Terme e Terra del Sole (Italy), the introduction of a fee of 5 euros per day and a limit of 72 hours for motorhome parking is being discussed. The mayor noted that this is a first-reception area for civil protection, not a campsite. The opposition group "Insieme per Crescere" criticized the decision, calling it a "short-sighted vision of tourism": the parking area is outdated and has not received investment, and motorhome owners contribute to the local economy. The group also reported a man who has been living in his car for over a month without assistance, urging a policy that combines tourism development and social support.
In France, in the commune of Saint-Martin-de-Londres (Hérault), residents launched a petition against converting half of the former football stadium into a parking area for 27 motorhomes. More than 500 signatures have been collected. Protesters are not against the parking area itself but consider the chosen site the only free public space for sports and leisure, and they also point to flood risks and soil sealing. The mayor estimates potential income for local businesses at 178,000 euros per season and promises a drainage surface and partial greening. A meeting with the mayor is scheduled for May 4.

In Saint-Martin-de-Londres (Hérault, France), residents have launched a petition against converting half of the former football stadium into a parking area for 27 motorhomes. They argue the project would eliminate the only free public space for sports and leisure and cause soil sealing in a flood-prone zone. The mayor estimates potential seasonal revenue for local businesses at €178,000 and promises permeable paving and partial grassing.

In Saint-Martin-de-Londres (Hérault), residents have gathered over 500 signatures against a plan to build a 27-motorhome parking area on the former village stadium. Opponents do not reject the parking itself but argue the chosen site is the only free public space for gatherings, games, and picnics. They also cite flood risks and additional soil sealing. A meeting with the mayor is scheduled for May 4.

The opposition group "Insieme per Crescere" criticized the decision of the Castrocaro Terme e Terra del Sole administration to make the camper area paid. According to the group, the area is obsolete and has not received investments, and the introduction of a fee is a short-sighted solution that does not address the real problems. Camper users contribute to the local economy. Additionally, the group reported the case of a man living in his car for over a month without intervention, calling for policies that combine tourism development and social attention.
