Representation Summary:

I strongly oppose the proposal to turn this land into a Traveller Site! Not only do I consider this use will impact on ALL our lives in the village, it will reduce the value of our properties and damage local businesses - if not causing them to close completely. Also concerned about local availability of school places. Please listen to the tax payers of the area for a change!!

I strongly oppose the proposal to turn this land into a Traveller Site! I was unable to attend the meeting at Loraine Victory Hall on Thurs 13th Feb '14 regarding this issue, but I understand that the overall majority were also opposed - Not only do I consider it will impact on ALL our lives in the village, it will reduce the value of our properties and damage local businesses - if not causing them to close completely. This is not 'guessing'. Local services are constantly being affected by cut-backs, but you can find money for this proposal?! I am also concerned about the availability of school places . . . and that is just the tip of the iceberg! Please listen to the tax payers of the area and try to support us in what we want to happen for a change !
