Testun llawn:
I confirm that I fully endorse and support the content of the document entitled 'Land at Startford Road, Warwick: Objection to the allocation for and use of as a Gypsy and Traveller site' which has been submitted by the Case Meadow Residents' Association in response to the 6 week public consultation instigated by Warwick District Council.
In summary, my key areas of concerns and reasons for objection are as below:
- This land was never part of the original consultation, nor part of the short list. This has therefore come as a complete surprise.
- The local school have already voiced concerns around not being able to accomodate the extra children.
- This is clearly not a site where people would want to live - between the M40 and a sewage works.
- Warwick thrives on tourism with many people coming to vist Warwick Castle. When travelling in coaches they would overlook a gypsy and traveller site on the main route into town.
- This land was earmarked for employment, which would provide a boost to the local economy, and is now being considered for a gypsy and traveller site - this in my view is a complete inappropriate use of the site.
I urge you to support the objection of use of this land as a gypsy and traveller site.
