The property management in the Porcia Center in Spittal (Carinthia) has responded to recent vandalism with a new rule: from now on, anyone who wants to use the toilet must ask.

The toilet facilities in the Porcia Center in Spittal were previously accessible to everyone. But that is now history. This is because the facilities have been vandalized in recent weeks. The highlight of the devastation was on carnival night. "It looked worse than a pigsty," said disgusted citizens.

In response, the Porcia Center property management has now tightened the access rules. "To ensure the cleanliness and comfort of our toilet facilities, we have introduced a new access regulation. From now on, access is only possible with an access card," writes the property management on Facebook (see below). The cards are issued by the Porcia Center businesses to their customers for one-time use and must be returned after use.

"The toilet facilities were never intended to be public toilets. Nevertheless, we have made them accessible to all visitors to the center so far, but unfortunately this is no longer possible," says the property management: "Unfortunately, this concession has recently been severely impaired by vandalism and considerable soiling, especially at peak times and during events such as the carnival."
