a bright dutch idea ?!

While I was collecting information about wilding in the dutch province of Zeeland (see thread): I stumbled over this: all municipalities did put a ban over wilding over there; only one did not – the municipality of Reimersdaal ( = 10 villages).
They only ask you send an e-mail to the municipality stating you are coming on that date; and that you have a selfconvient MH. You put a copy of the e-mail on your windshield and you may go wild. :confused:
Only restriction: obey traffic laws etc, no more than 5 days, no more than 5 MH on one spot. (of course some spots should be avoided for safety raisons: sluces, slip-ways, fishers quays,…)
At first I found this a weird idea, but after some reflection it's geniuos ! :)
(I became a little rusty above, so it toke some time :eek::D)
In this way they avoid all what municipalities always are complaining about:
- masses of MH’s
- staying too long
- spilling waste-water and loos and dirt
- squating of places by ….
(if any complaint: they know you ! :eek:).
Maybe an idea to put under the nose of those reluctant, and MH-banning, municipalities in England.? :cool:
(I know Graham Hadfield chooses to be no longer a member, but I am sure he could make a benefit of this example – but I guess he will come in now and then and read this :))
 
Three Cheers for Reimersdaal:D and shame on the other municipalities:(, sounds like a great Idea and I hope Reimersdaal benefits from their scheme.
Somehow I cannot see It working over here as our local authorities are so paranoid at the site of one or two campers in their area, saying that, I still think the problem lies with the "Dog walking snobs":eek::mad: that are straight onto the council when they see wilding in their midst
 
Wish that poor Phil Admin could have got the "Thank You" button to work

Anyway - again many thanks to Belgian

Maybe Lenny,
I only hope some politician would 'steal' the idea :eek::D
Oops: I made a mistake it is Reimerswaal instead of Reimersdaal :(:rolleyes:
