Hello,

Reading the gazette yesterday there was a slight wry amusement about the article on page 57 (concerning parking fines on La Herradura beach). Not so smiling now that I have received a “to-be-signed-for” denuncia from Motril. This morning I was told by Knight’s in Nerja that the same thing is happening down there. Presumably the whole coast is being targeted.

Not a fluent Spanish speaker, but I cannot see any evidence as to location, date or time of the alleged infraction.  Having lived in La Herradura for more than 10 years I cannot recall ever having seen any “sign” of the possible wrong parking. How can it be possible to transgress a law that nobody knows about, let alone one that is not “signed”. I know that in Spain many things are “normal”, but surely this is “money grabbing” by the state and which surely cannot be legally enforced.

Any chance of more information and or suggested course of action? To add insult to injury the gang in Motril haven’t given any bank details for receipt of this “smash and grab”.

Disgruntled of La Herradura,
