Gypsy, Traveller and Travelling Showpeople Development Plan Document

Strongly disagree

We are writing to strongly object to the above site being allocated as a Gypsy/Traveller site on the following grounds:- With more than 13,000 residents of Bearsted, Thurnham, Hollingbourne, Downswood, Harrietsham, Wormshill, Stockbury, Shepway and beyond already using just one doctor’s surgery, would it be sensible to add further pressure on this surgery? The same applies to local schools. As Thurnham and Roseacre schools would not be in the catchment area, where is the proposed school? In addition the area is currently grid locked with traffic, to get out of the area is time consuming and frustrating. We reserve the right to comment further at Regulation 19 or on any future planning application, once more detailed information is made available.
