The municipal administration in Livorno has faced criticism regarding public utility management and local land disputes.

Political representative Guarducci criticized the administration for failing to meet objectives for the ‘Tarip’ point-based waste management system. The criticism highlighted the postponement of the system’s expansion and the lack of an operational tracking system for approximately 350 electronic waste bins, which reportedly resulted in improper disposal and urban degradation.

Separately, Mayor Luca Salvetti announced intentions to pursue legal action against members of the Urban Gardens Committee (Comitato Orti Urbani) following insults directed at him during a protest. The confrontation occurred regarding an upcoming eviction scheduled for November 3. While the Mayor defended the administration’s mediation efforts and proposed returning a large portion of the area to citizens, he indicated that the administration will proceed with scheduled actions if the committee rejects the current proposal.
