Allocations DPD Discussion and Consultation Document

Representation ID: 18421

Received: 26/04/2010

Respondent: Mr Leslie Sampson

Representation Summary:

Most if not all of the locations listed are in green belt so I am assuming that the Council is only able to consider geen belt for the purposes of providing serviced sites for gypsies (ie persons of nomadic habit of life) to be able to stay. My understanding is that the Council has to provide a total of 18 sites or pitches in the Council area by 2011 to comply with the requirements laid down by the regional assembly. I object to most of the suggested locations as they are clearly unsuitable as I have detailed below.
