Preferred Options for Sites
Representation ID: 65302

There is great inconsistency in the commentary for some sites being deemed suitable and others unsuitable.
For example: The Detailed Gypsy and Traveller Site Assessments note that GT19 "is adjacent to the Grand Union Canal Local Wildlife Site." But is omitted from Section 7 and the site remains a preferred option. But the proximity to a local wildlife site has been included within the commentaries in Section 7 for other sites.
Please could Council officers explain this inconsistency?
To whom it may concern
Regarding the consultation on the Preferred Options Sites for Gypsies and Travellers, I refer you to my below comments:

There is great inconsistency in the commentary for some sites being deemed suitable and others unsuitable.
For example:
GT19 - "Services available on site as currently used by Caravan and Camping Club " has been presented as a positive factor.
By comparison:
GTalt22 - "As a Caravan and Camping Club site, this use would not be suitable"
Please could Council officers explain this?
Please respond.
