Allocations DPD Discussion and Consultation Document

Representation ID: 18287

Received: 12/04/2010

Respondent: Sheila Cook

Representation Summary:

I do realise however that the travellers have to go somewhere so why not allocate them where there are already travellers on the A1245 opposite View Nurseries or on the site at the junction of A127 and A1245. I am sure this would be the best and happiest solution for everyone. I do hope you consider the people already living in Rayleigh who make Rayleigh such a lovely place to live. Please don't spoil it for us.

I live in Louis Drive West and I am writing to say how strongly I object to there being a proposed travellers site being put in London Road . I moved to Rayleigh five years ago because, as a retired lady, I wanted to spend my retirement in a lovely peaceful environment . That is the reason I bought a property in Louis Drive West so that I could walk to the top of my road and see green fields. Not rows of houses and caravans. To put the Travellers Site next to Swallows Aquatics would upset a lot of people especially the elderly.
