Dear Warwick District Council

I am writing to voice my objection about the proposed traveller site in Harbury.

My personal experience of travellers joining a new community is that have a tendency to act disrespectfully towards pre-established communities. As Harbury is a village with a large representation of elderly residents, the arrival of a new group of travellers with an aggressive attitude to joining new groups who are unsympathetic to the needs of elderly and vulnerable people could become particularly problematic for Harburys community.

I also believe that Harbury itself does not have sufficient resources to easily accommodate vastly increased numbers of residents and will therefore stretch our limited resources detrimentally. This is of particular concern if the travellers are not contributing financially to our local economy by employment, taxes etc and given that the proposed location of the site has no other local facilities.
