BASE HEADER

I am writing to convey my concern about the site of the new Gypsy site, I moved to Harbury with my family in September 2010 and have never felt more secure and safe ever since, we chose Harbury as it has a well serviced village location and very small amount of through traffic.
We moved from Headington in Oxford and had a Gypsy site about four miles from where we lived, also the Oxford city council re-housed some travellers on the estate we lived on. I have had a few dealings with travellers as I am a keen caravanner and have sold a few of my old Vans to gypsies, i found that they are quite agreeable people business wise once you can agree on a price for either an item they require or work they are offering to do for you, but on every occasion they have a severe lack of respect for local people and they Never tidy up the mess they make and the council will always be left to clear up the mess left by the travellers and a lot of unrest from locals will need addressing.
I believe that if the travellers need a site it should be much farther away from other communities, as they do not want to fit in with their surrounding, but wish to create their own living standards that others around them have to accept (even if the neighbours have lived in the area for a few generations).

I hope that I have not been too demeaning, as I have stated above, I have had a few dealings with travellers in the past, but in my knowledge they have very set beliefs and life structures that do not fit in with the surrounding area and population, I can be contacted on this email address and would like to know that my objection is satisfactory to be registered.
