The city of Pula in Croatia plans to introduce a special parking card for residents starting in November, offering 1,000 hours of parking per year for 37.50 euros. This would cost less than four cents per hour, but the benefit is limited to those with permanent residence in Pula. The parking will be managed through an app, requiring users to register with their personal identification number and vehicle registration plate. Users will mark the start and end of their parking session within the app. Mayor Peđa Grbin stated this initiative fulfills one of his campaign promises, aiming to provide affordable parking for daily tasks such as visiting doctors, going to the market, or handling administrative matters.
