The College of Mayor and Aldermen implemented the permit suspensions after the involved operators were previously warned to adhere to permit conditions. New violations, including stalls exceeding permitted size, not being located in front of their own facade, or containing non-allowed items, led to this decision.
The suspensions will be in effect from October 12, 2026, through November 9, 2026. During this period, the affected traders may not use the suspended permits or display beach items or coastal bicycles on public property based on these permits. From November 10, the permits can be used again, provided all applicable rules are strictly followed.
With this measure, the city aims to consistently apply the rules for the use of public space and ensure accessibility for everyone. A spokesperson emphasized that it is unfair to the majority of entrepreneurs who operate qualitatively when there is no consistent action against those who are less strict with the rules that guarantee order, safety, and accessibility. The city will take responsibility and act effectively to strengthen the city's image.
