The municipality of Civitanova Marche is facing significant administrative and legal challenges. A property owner has issued a formal warning to the council following the rejection of an urban planning variant for the former industrial zone B in Civitanova Alta. This rejection reversed a preliminary approval from April 2025, leading the owner's legal representative to claim the administration is acting contradictorily and leaving the area in a “white zone” regulatory vacuum.

Simultaneously, the local government is facing political instability. Nine minority councilors have filed a third motion of no confidence against Mayor Fabrizio Ciarapica, alleging “administrative and institutional degradation.” The opposition claims the administration is paralyzed by internal divisions and power struggles, failing to meet campaign commitments. This motion of no confidence specifically cites political paralysis within the majority as a primary concern.
