I object to traveller sites based at Horseman Side and Goatswood Lane, Navestock, for the following reasons:
1. Navestock has been allocated three sites in the Plan whilst the rest of the Borough has only two
2. The above sites are now occupied by more caravans and other semi-permenant dwellings than were originally agreed by BBC.
3. sites have been tarmaced and paved in clear contravention of GB legislation
4. these sites do not meet the accepted criteria in terms of proximity to services nad facilities
5. governments aim to meet travellers needs must be extended to settled communities.

I feel very strongly about my local councils continued determination to prioritise the needs of a chosen traditionally essentially normadic lifestyle. Travellers have tarmaced precious gb and flouting planning regulations.

I have lived in Navestock for 20 years and Im saddened by the traveller sites, they make our village an open sewer, with rubbish and caravans parked on gb land .

I object to the traveller provisions in the plan as they now outnumber the settled community and this has had a detrimental effect on our village in a number of ways such as crime, destruction and littering and general abuse of gb land. The site does not meet general criteria for suitable sites- proximity to services and facilities and public transport. Navestock doesnt have these!

I fully support Navestock Parish Council's position on travelelrs. They cannot be allowed to behave as they like. They must obey the laws of the land, like everyone else. If not they must be brought to justice and/or pay the price. BBC must make sure they enforce the regulations.

It is unclear as to the actual number of pitches, both those in existence and those proposed. Paragraphs 4.122 and 4.124 state a new target will be provided once an updated needs assessment is completed, so how can we know what we are being consultated on?

Paragraph 4.123- how has this estimate been produced, because if accurate then it would seem that there is a need for only 14 more pitches on the current target. ALso it is unclear if the 20 pitches proposed on the 5 named sites are the same 20 pitches with temporary permision?

Is there an agreed definition of a pitch? how does BBC carry out checks to ensure the pitches are occupied by one household?

There is a problem with the CLG count , which is based on figures provided by the Council, and residents have no confidence in the Councils count.

We agree 100% with our Parish Council. How can Navestock be suitable for Traveller sites when we dont have good transport, shops, schools, ect. I cannot and would not build on land without permission yet travellers do what they like. we would like to thank our Prish council for loooking after our interests as BBC is not and the village is being destroyed.

As a local family we are appalled that BBC have allowed this situation with the growing illegal settlements in Navestock to continue. In Navestock it is common knowledge that the settled community are outnumbered by the travellers, however BBC are portraying a totally inaccurate picture with quoted numbers for the proposed LDP.

The council surely has a commitment to the local community as this obviously causes bad feeling as the gb and environment is being comleted destroyed. This is a rural community and shoul be returned to its original status but resently local people are being intimidated by travelelrs.

We object as there appears to be one law for travellers and another for us.
