It is with the upmost of regret that I feel the need to send you this message with regard to the above-mentioned subject.

Firstly, we were NOT informed at the original consultation, which we attended, that Stratford Road, Warwick was on the shortlist.
WHY ??

This part of Warwick is the main 'GATEWAY' from all routes, including the Motorway, to what is the second biggest tourist attraction in the U.K.What a sight for sore eyes to greet the many tourists that frequent the Town. Unfortunately, we can speak from experience that eye sores they do become. We have only recently moved to Warwick, where we thought we were purchasing a property in a sought after area !!!! We moved from Birmingham where there was a Gypsy/Traveller Site only minutes away.
When visiting the local waste disposal site, the traveller site was in full view and a complete disgrace, set alight and destroyed by they themselves.
And, of course, house prices did not go up, but only down and stopped like that until the day we left, and lost thousands of pounds !!!

At the present time, the Chase Meadow Estate has a good reputation and house prices have increased, with the cost of certain properties rising above £500,000. For which people would have worked and strived very hard to attain, and paid their taxes to achieve this goal in their lives. This also includes my Wife and I, who worked all our lives to attain what we have.

The Government, we are TOLD, have a duty of obligation to the travellers, BUT WHERE IS YOUR DUTY OF OBLIGATION to hardworking class who have paid their 'dues' in life. These travellers are very much for their own community, and like isolation, so why, therefore, do you not cater for their needs, and give them isolation ?? And put them on sites where their strong beliefs and values do NOT infringe on our way of life.
Our experience in Warwick with the Travellers thus far, has not been pleasant, with verbal abuse when they are here. NOT VERY NICE AT ALL.

Thank you for your kind assistance in this matter and I look forward to hearing from you shortly.
