Ayuntamiento de La Oliva's inspired free extra parking spaces

[admin]

Somebody in the La Oliva Ayuntamiento has been struck by inspiration and come up with a brilliant plan to increase the number of parking spaces.

Unused plots of land within towns have been 'temporarily' ceded to the Ayuntamiento as extra parking.
How many and how temporary I don't know but it can't be for too short a time as the plots have been tarmacced and painted.

Initiative at last ! Mind you, some of them are so small they're not worth the bother. I don't use them for fear of getting boxed in. But the one a block behind Finnegan's (off Lepanto) is a good-sized car park. I can't believe that when I arrived here in 2012 you could just park wherever you liked - there was always a space about six cars away from where you were going. Now you can go round and round searching for somewhere.

Wait till they turn calle Hernan Cortes into a pedestrian area.
The whole area includes the road before the police station, the road behind Centro Atlantico, and back to mainstreet.
That's about 35-40 parking spaces gone 
And what about all the delivery trucks supplying the bars and restaurants 
Work was planned to start last novembre, so adding the mañana factor, we will loose more parking spaces in 2016
