BASE HEADER

I am writing to register my objection to the proposed Gypsy and Traveller site GT02 (Warwickshire Exhibition Centre).

I am objecting to the site on the basis of:

- The site is on Green Belt land and will directly affect the Green Belt

- The site is overlooked by Ufton, Leamington and Harbury and will have a detrimental effect on the landscape. Due to the elavation of the land around it it will not be possible to screen the site.

- Both the Fosse and A425 are busy routes and the access to and from the site will be unsafe.

- The Exhibition Centre will need to closed and it's heritage will disappear

- There is no infrastructure at this site and no facilities. The travellers will have to walk on busy public highways leading to risk to themselves and other.

I also feel that the study that was used to establish the requirement for gypsy sites is out of date and floored and has been driven by the current affairs and at that time. The requirement for these sites at all needs review.

I am also concerned that the site is on the Warwickshire DC and Stratford DC boundary and any implication and effects of this site will cross this boundary leading to inefficiencies and ineffectiveness of response.
