Representation ID: 64588

Respondent: Tania Winterburn

Representation Summary:

Strongly object to a site being located at GT02 now or at any time in the future. Site has been deemed not suitable for housing in the past and government criteria states that Gypsy and Traveller sites cannot be located anywhere not suitable for normal housing.
Site is located on a busy main road which has experienced several fatalities in recent years, an access onto this road would be unsafe.
Local doctors surgeries and schools are oversubscribed even before the proposed 100 homes at Radford Semele. There is only one bus stop which would mean walking on the verge as there are no pathways and limited street lighting.
Area has historical value being a Roman Road
Impact on local businesses would be disastrous, in particular the exhibition centre over the road and local pubs and garages losing business. This has happened in Ryton
Strongly oppose compulsory purchase, Stratford District Councilhas said they will do everything in their power to not use CPO. It is unfair to make an individual give up their land at a minimal price for others to make profit on.
