I have heard that it is possible to pay a charge ? to the council and they will post a "no parking" sign outside you house.

Can anyone give more info on this and where I would obtain one for a house in La Azohia?

It is known as a “vado” and you apply at your town hall. There is an annual licence fee which they will tell you.

Don’t expect absolute respect of it though, especially if you live in an area where there is pressure on parking space - just look at how many folk park on pedestrian crossings, double-yellow lines etc! It is unclear what space is covered by the vado, the whole frontage or just a gate - strictly speaking it is just aimed at making sure you can drive in and out of your property, rather than making dure you can park outside your house. In fact you would be breaking the law if you park there, as you would be preventing access!

“Cuando pagamos un vado, pagamos por el derecho a pisar la acera con el coche para acceder a un inmueble. Es decir, pagamos para poder entrar y salir de esa vivienda o local. El acceso al garaje requiere autorización municipal, por lo que el vado se ciñe a las condiciones que se establezcan en cada Ordenanza Municipal.

Pagan un vado no da un derecho de reserva de plaza para aparcar nuestro vehículo en la calle. 

El vado legal se marca con la señal R-308. Esta señal obliga a su cumplimento por todos los vehículos, sin excepciones, incluido el nuestro. Si no fuera así, estaríamos ante una reserva de un espacio público para obtener un beneficio privado, que sería agraviante para el resto de usuarios de la via”
