Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to raise my objections to the proposed Gypsy/Traveller sites that are adjacent to Chase Meadow and the Forbes Estate (GT11).
Firstly there will be too much pressure on local schools, Doctors surgeries and amenities. Chase Meadow is an already growing estate with new builds currently extending the estate, this already puts pressure on the local primary schools who are already struggling to provide places this year. The Doctors surgery already has to cover the Chase Meadow estate, the Forbes estate and surrounding areas in Warwick. With one of the proposed Gypsy/Traveller sites being across the road from Chase Meadow and the Forbes, and being one of the larger proposed sites I feel it is unacceptable and unfair to place the site in that location, so close to an already heavily populated area. It will also cause house prices in the area to decrease and prospective buyers will be put off by the traveller sites being in such close proximity.
Secondly, the Hampton Road site is on a flood plain and given the amount of rainfall we have had in recent years it would be very likely that it would flood.
Thirdly, I do not believe that the settled community and traveller community would be able to live peacefully alongside each other and become integrated given the amount of discord amongst the local community as shown in the consultation that took place at the Aylesford School meeting on the 15th July. This is one of the requirements for such sites and I don't believe that this can be met.
I hope that my concerns will be taken into consideration when deciding which sites will go ahead.
