In Como there is a street literally in revolt against holiday home tourists. The area is Via Rosales and the photos on the cover and letter that we receive and publish – indicating only the sender’s initials upon explicit request granted – indicate the degree of exasperation. Below is the full text [per segnalazioni, foto e video scrivere a [email protected], alla nostra pagina facebook oppure al whatsapp di redazione 335.8366795].
Good morning,
following the devastating accident caused by yet another foreigner who does what he wants in our house, I am attaching yet another testimonial of the incivility/rudeness of those for whom the territory is being devastated, with the concreting and quintupling of accommodation facilities, for the mere purpose of personal profit, without thinking of the harmful consequences for the community!
Apart from the shocking traffic these days, due to Ascension, which impacts not only the Regina but also the city (I attach yesterday’s situation at 4pm between Como and Cernobbio, so it took 30 minutes from Grand Mercato di Tavernola to Largo Spluga ), I agree with the excerpt from the communication sent to the bodies responsible for the safety of citizens who, for the moment, have not provided any feedback (probably too busy ‘pretending to’ clean up Via Anzani and/or lock down the city for the match…), for notify yet another time bomb that will explode only after there are injuries or deaths!!
The residents of Via Rosales are in fact INVITED due to the rudeness of tourists from “short-term rentals”, who have multiplied worse than rabbits who, in addition to problems of annoying noises, abandonment of unsorted waste and wild parking, often even dangerous, are not able , despite idiot-proof signage, to understand that it is a one-way street!
In fact, we often witness cars driving along the street in the opposite direction, entering Bellinzona from the entrance, putting the safety of others at serious risk, confirming the lack of respect for the rules, decorum and code of the road, once the border!!
The uncivilized are evidently not even fined, given that there are no cameras to record the license plates and, when caught in the act of committing a crime, often instead of apologizing, they reserve harsh words for those who notify the infringement! It goes without saying that the owners of the facilities decline any type of responsibility, that the guest is sacred, at least as long as he does not post negative reviews on social media!!
Thanking you in advance for the attention you wish to dedicate to the above, I remain available for any further clarification you may need.
Best regards
EV
