Representation Summary:

Object to possible travellers' site next to Shell petrol station on Birmingham Road. It is 100 metres from the large Hatton Park housing development and therefore completely unsuitable. Travellers at Kites Nest Lane have caused crime (and car/house insurance premiums) to surge, causing suffering for years. Hatton Park residents will take a strong stance against travellers should they arrive in our village.

Hi, I wish to object to the idea of a travellers site next to the Shell petrol filling station on Birmingham road. This site is completely unsuitable due to being 100 meters away from a very large housing development (Hatton park). We have already suffered for years, as the travellers at Kites nest lane have caused crime (and my car/house insurance premiums) to surge. The residents of Hatton park will not stand for this and WILL take a strong stance against the travellers should they arrive in our village.
