Preferred Options for Sites

Representation ID: 64095

Respondent: Mrs Diane Whelan

Representation Summary:

I fully understand the need for such sites, but to place a site right next to an area of allotments that have been nurtured for many years would be the equivalent of offering a free hand to an open supermarket .These allotments have been the livelihood of the community and Travellers right next to them would destroy the peace and tranquillity that residents enjoy. The main road that the land adjoins is a busy road with fast flowing traffic which could propose a hazard with vehicles moving in and out of the site.
