Extra pitches for Gypsy and Traveller site? - Buckinghamshire

From the Bucks Herald

More Gypsies and Travellers could soon be setting up home in a Vale village.


On Thursday night Aylesbury Vale District Council will consider an application to extend the current site at Willows Park in Horton Road, Slapton.

The plans include extra access for vehicles, the laying of hardstanding and a new fence.

According to the application, the development would increase the capacity of the site to 13 pitches, which would be used by Gypsies and Travellers.

Planning officers have urged the council’s development control committee to approve the proposal.

But councillors will also consider implications for the area, including the impact on residents, highway safety and the impact on the surrounding countryside.
