From Harlow Council
A County Court hearing has been set this Friday (26 April 2013) at 2.30pm in Chelmsford and the Council has served court papers to the Travellers today (23 April 2013).
Councillor Emma Toal, Cabinet Portfolio Holder for Youth & Citizenship, said: “The Council is working closely with the Police in accordance with established protocols and it is in contact with the Travellers. Residents expect us to protect the town’s green spaces and uphold the law and that is what we will do. We have asked the Travellers to leave the site and the next step for the Council is to take formal legal action. We appreciate that this must be frustrating for residents but there is a legal process to follow. In the meantime we will continue to work with the Police to monitor the situation.”
