Neither agree nor disagree

I am writing to formally object to the proposed development of a traveller site at Green Lane, Langley. This is a highly residential area, and placing a traveller site here would have a significant impact on the community as a whole. Firstly, Green Lane is accessed via a narrow, one-lane track, which is frequently subject to flooding. This presents clear difficulties in ensuring safe and reliable access to the site, especially during adverse weather. Moreover, the site is overlooked by a large number of homes, which raises serious privacy concerns for both the local residents and any future site occupants. It is also important to note that this site has previously been refused planning permission for residential development due to the concerns about the viability of this land being suitable for housing. There is no reason why these valid concerns should now be disregarded to permit a traveller site, which would still face the same fundamental issues. Furthermore, several alternative sites are available that are far better suited to this purpose. These sites are located in less densely populated areas, minimising the impact on local residents. Additionally, they offer improved access points and better infrastructure, making them more practical and appropriate options. In light of these considerations, I urge the council to reject the proposal at Green Lane and focus on these alternative sites, which would be far less disruptive to the community and better meet the needs of a traveller site.
