Europa Nostra,
1noting
that tourist organizations, both public and private, and
amenity organizations have a common interest in the pro-
tection of the architectural and natural heritage and in the
proper development of these attractions for touristic pur-
poses;
2. resolves
to take steps to initiate practical arrangements to estabiish
effective contact between these organizations on inter
national, national and local levels for the purpose of ex-
changing views and information and furthering co-
operation.
CAR PARKING
Europa Nostra,
1. at its 7th annual general meeting in Malta, while recog-
nizing the useful role that the motor car plays in the
development of tourism;

the disfigurement of squares and streets of historie and
architectural importance bij the indiscriminate parking of
motor-vehicles;
3. notes
with satisfaction the successful measures already taken by
municipal authorities in a number of countries to exclude
motor-vehicles from such areas;
4. invites
the Council of European Municipalities at its forthcoming
congress to urge municipal authorities, when preparing their
town planning schemes,
to give consideration
a. to the exclusion of motor-vehicles wherever feasible from
squares and streets of historie and architectural im
portance and to the creation of- pedestrian precincts,
b. to the provision of alternative car-park facilities,
c. to the routing of public transport so as to serve the
pedestrian precincts when these are at some distance
from a car park.
UNSIGHTLY ADVERTISING
Europa Nostra,
1considering
a. that unsightly advertising gravely damages the urban
and rural scene,
b. that many countries either do not possess adequate legal
powers of control or do not exercise them effectively;
2. recommends
a. that a study should be made of the existing laws and
regulations of European countries for the control of
advertising in urban and rural areas and their effective-
ness,
b. that, in the light of this information, model regulations
should be framed for the guidance of Government and
other authorities,
c. that every opportunity should be taken to draw the
attention of all authorities concerned to the importance
of this problem.
YOUTH
Europa Nostra,
1. having regard to the importance of encouraging arnong
young people increased interest and pride in Europe's cul-
tural and natural heritage and of securing their positivc
support for the measures required for its protection;
2. resolves
to devise methods of associating youth with its work.
ASSISTANCE TO PRIVATE OWNERS
Europa Nostra,
1recognizing
that the European heritage embraces many privately owned
houses of historie and architectural interest both large and
small;
and that, under present conditions, the maintenance of such
property often places an impossible burden upon the
owners;
2. urges
the Council of Europe to recommend member Governments
to give adequate financial assistance to the conservation of
such houses, particularly those open to the public, by means
of
a. contributions from public funds,
b. tax deductions to meet the costs of maintenance and
restoration,
c. loans at specially low rates of interest.
