Preferred Options for Sites

Representation ID: 65304

Received: 21/04/2014

Respondent: Sarah Smith

Representation Summary:

For GT19, the consultation document states as a supporting factor:"Possible use of existing access points" but there is no credible solution for allowing large vehicles to turn into a constrained site off a busy road.

How does this compare with the commentary for site GTalt22: "Access would have to be shared with Camping and Caravan Club access", which is presented as a negative?
Please respond.

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.
