Received: 29/07/2013
Respondent: Miss Zoe Telford
Representation Summary:
-It is feared that the Travellers will not maintain their site in an appropriate manner
-The Birmingham Road is a fast / high risk route with a hsitory of accidents. A site in close proximity to it would be dangerous
-The area is known to flood
-The site is in close proximity to a petrol station (therefore Health and Safety reasons should discount it). The owner of the site has previously had an application to site caravans here refused because of this.
-The site backs onto the canal where there are protected wildlife species
-This may have a detrimental impact on the tourism rates associated with the Canal and Hatton Country World.
