INCORRECT PARKING SIGNS TO FACE SANCTIONS

Listen to this article

Once a sufficient timeframe for renewing the Vado Permanete licenses across the Orihuela municipality has expired, those home owners who have not updated their signs to the latest version, and those who carry fake or erroneous signs, will face sanctions from the town hall.

As previously reported, both the Playa Flamenca and Orihuela City town halls have a number of new signs awaiting collection, which will replace those that are no out of date. A total of 1,600 locations have been identified as potentially having the right to display the new sign, but they must be collected from the town hall in exchange for your old one.

At the end of this month, action will start to be taken against those who fail to display the correct and valid signs, with a fine of 100 euro and the withdrawal of the rights that the license brings.

The councillor for licensing, Antonio Zapata, has said that the process of cleaning the registry has proven difficult, with numerous duplications so two totally different residents could have the same number on their license, others that have the wrong names and a complex task of correcting the data to make it more manageable.

Letters were sent out to those residents believed to be entitled to display the sign, inviting them to collect their replacement. This has proven a success already, with 1,300 already collected, although there are still a number of signs, some 300, still to be assigned, and a potentially greater number of old signs incorrectly displayed.

The councillor explained that the license can cost between 90 and 150 euro per year, as the streets are divided into different categories. Whenever a vehicle crosses the pavement to access a garage or parking place, the Vado Permanete is required. It is necessary that those who have a license are abreast of their payments under current regulations”, he concluded.
