Land Plot Cleaning: Changes and New Deadlines

What are the new deadlines for cleaning declarations?
The most important change for owners concerns the timeline. Land plots must be cleaned starting from April 1st, while the deadline for submitting the related declaration to the Registry is extended until June 15th. It is crucial to know that the maintenance obligation persists throughout the fire prevention period to avoid fire hazards.

What does the “Active Fight” bill provide for land plots?
The new bill introduces radical changes in how land plot cleaning is carried out, focusing on prevention through the National Registry for the Implementation of Preventive Fire Protection Measures. The goal is full digitalization of the process, so declarations, inspections, and authority interventions are coordinated and transparent. The state now “verticalizes” the process, assigning clear roles to Municipalities and the Fire Department. 🏡

What fines are imposed on violators?
The new framework introduces a rational differentiation of sanctions. If you have cleaned your land plot but forgot the declaration, the fine is €100. However, for failure to clean, the fine amounts to €1 per square meter, with a minimum of €200 and a maximum of €2,000. In cases of immediate danger, the Municipality can carry out compulsory cleaning, charging the costs to the owner. 💰

What applies to those without access to digital means?
To avoid digital exclusion, the bill provides alternative solutions. Citizens unable to use the digital platform can submit their declaration physically to the competent authority. In this way, it is ensured that every owner can comply with their obligations, contributing to the national fire prevention effort. 💡
