Gypsy and Traveller Site Options

Representation ID: 55673

Received: 26/07/2013

Respondent: M Thompson

Representation Summary:

Site is unsuitable as not within easy reach of the local facilities eg schools, doctors, main roads etc.

Three other Traveller sites within a small radius of this site creates too much concentration in one small area and not an even 'distributed across the District'. This concentration will have a definite detrimental effect on the residents of Baginton including the devaluation of property etc.

Re: Gypsy & Traveller Site Options - Ref GT07 Stoneleigh Road, Baginton - OBJECTION
Dear Sirs,
I wish to register my objection to the proposed Gypsy & Traveller Site GT07 as it is not a suitable site for this type of development, not being within easy reach of the local facilities that you state are necessary - eg schools, doctors, main roads etc.
There are already 3 other Traveller sites within a small radius of this site & this makes it too much concentration in one small area - therefore definitely not 'distributed across the District'.
This concentration of sites will ultimately have a definite detrimental effect on the residents of Baginton including the devaluation of property etc.
