Legal restrictions

Here is the link to the official journal: https://www.gazzettaufficiale.it/eli/id/2004/12/31/004G0346/sg Article 8 regulates distances: “Apiaries must be located at least ten meters from public roads and at least five meters from the boundaries of public or private property. Compliance with the distances referred to in the first paragraph is not mandatory if between the apiary and the places indicated there are differences in height of at least two meters or if they are interposed, without interruption, walls, hedges or other suitable shelters not to allow the passage of bees. These shelters must be at least two meters high. However, this is without prejudice to agreements between the parties concerned.” The exit of the chimney is beyond the 2 meters required, in any case it is good to inquire if your municipality has more restrictive indications by calling the ASL veterinary.
