Respondent: Mrs Julie Hyde

Representation Summary:

Object strongly to the introduction of Gypsies/Travllers sites. When Gypsies visit the area there appears to be an increase in the amount of petty crime.

A gypsy site will increase the burden on tax payers.

PO5
I believe that 40% Affordable Housing is too high. A figure of bween 1-20% would be far more acceptable amongst the community.
I also believe that Affordable Housing should be on the basis of shared equity to ensure that the properties are kept in good order. This would be in keeping with the surrounding area.

PO7
I object strongly to the introduction of Gypsies/Travllers sites. On occaisions the Gypsy community visit the Kenilworth Horsefair situated on the Leamington Road close to the junction of the A46. Residents are aware of the high level of policing at this time and a noticeable increase in petty crime.
A gypsy site will increase the burden on hardworking tax payers to support these people.

I believe it very unfair to support these non taxpaying people as I have been a single parent working hard and receiving any type of benefit or help.
