BASE HEADER

I would like to register my displeasure at the idea of a permanent traveller site being located on the Stratford Road, Warwick.

Enough trouble, noise and inconvenience was caused when they set up home on Chase meadow last year on two separate occasions, and this was only temporary.

Aside from the obvious and dramatic drop in house prices, residents should not have to put up with all of the associated problems that are attached to certain elements of this community.

Despite what some may say, the facilities are inadequate for the area currently, without adding in all these extra people who will no doubt take priority in places like the GP surgery and irk the locals no end.

If you as a council are obliged to site this camp somewhere, then surely the needs and wishes of the permanent tax paying community should take precedence over a group of people who possibly do not care where they live?

The site on Europa way should be the first choice in my opinion, especially as the land in Harbury lane is unlikely to become available for several years.
