Preferred Options for Sites

Representation ID: 65303

Received: 21/04/2014

Respondent: Sarah Smith

Representation Summary:

For GT19 the consultation document states: "Services available on site as currently used by Caravan and Camping Club". This is seemingly presented as a factor supporting GT19 as a Preferred Site. However, the commentary for site GTalt22: "As a Camping and Caravan Club site, this use would not be suitable" is not a supporting factor.

Please explain this contradiction.

To whom it may concern
Regarding the consultation on the Preferred Options Sites for Gypsies and Travellers, I refer you to my below comments:
8. Preferred Options for Consultation
PO1: Meeting the Requirement for Permanent Pitches - OBJECT
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.
