Samuele Piscina, the provincial secretary of the Lega party, has voiced adamant opposition to the proposed ZTL Isola plan, claiming it would confine residents within a 5-square-kilometer area and hinder the ability of friends and family to visit after 7:30 PM. He raised concerns particularly for vulnerable groups like the elderly and disabled, who could struggle with the restrictions. Piscina argues that the implementation of ZTL is misguided as it would merely displace parking issues rather than resolve them, leading to complications for residents and their visitors.

The zoning initiative, although intended to prevent reckless parking, has drawn significant criticism from those who believe it will create new problems rather than solving existing ones. Piscina argues that shifting parking outside the boundaries of the ZTL will just exacerbate traffic and chaos in neighboring areas, thus not fulfilling the intended goal of improving urban transportation. He stresses that merely imposing restrictions will not curb nightlife disturbances, advocating instead for implementing practical measures such as increased police enforcement and fines to truly address the root of the issues.

As the city administration nears the end of its mandate, Piscina suggests that the ZTL implementation should be postponed until a new mayor is elected, cautioning that pushing through changes now could result in significant harm to the residents affected. He believes the current administration’s repeated delays signal a lack of commitment to the initiative, and there should be a re-evaluation of the merits of the ZTL plan before any decisions are made that could have lasting impacts on community mobility and safety.
