Spread this to any friends and forums you know!!

I've already done FMUK, Motorcaravanner's Club, and WildMotorhomers (FB).

Has John put it on Out and About Live? And what about Motorhomefun/facts. I don't have accounts there, but I know some people do :)
 
There are other places to go (at the moment). But if we let Scarborough get away with this, other councils could get ideas. It could be the thin end of the wedge.

The number of objections does count. When they tried to close the byways to traffic and motorhomes at Stonehenge, they got 350 objections which forced Wiltshire County Council to go to public enquiry. 350 is a lot of objections. At the public enquiry, we won. The inspector ruled the ban was not needed. Motorhomers 1 Town Hall 0

We can get 1000's of objections from motorhomers if we get our act together!

The last time this went to consultation it was halted because AndyS threatened NYCC with legal Action because it had not been printed in a Motorhome Magazine. The council had now included MMM in the list of places where the advert was to be placed. There should be an advertisement in MMM now.

The email I received was sent to various Councilors, AndyS, Tom Peil and myself at TMCTO.

I have posted in MHFun but not MHFacts as I no longer have access. I didn't renew membership when it was taken over by a non motorhome website collector only interested in selling potential advertising numbers.

That 350 objections is sufficient to cause a council or whoever to rethink.
350 should be easily achieved from here..
PROVIDED we dont just leave it to others !!!
 
Done my bit, but have to confess that I have no intention of visiting a town that does not want me.
 
Me too, but it is the thin end of the wedge. Like resident's parking, it could spread like a cancer, if we don't challenge the legality and discrimination aspects now.

Very easy for other councils to follow

Have sent reply to link that was provided earlier and completed council form.
Agree with earlier comment about limiting number of nights stayed... Also emphasized commercial benefits to towns if allowed out of season ...
 
My objection went in yesterday covering the parking issue ........
Also added that 4 of us travel to the east coast for sea/beach fishing in my MH average loss of revenue to local trade circa £280 per weekend.
Tackle/bait shop £160, food/beer outlets £120, mailed the link to two of the tackle shops we use, knew nothing about it, but will send in an objection, one in Whitby the other in Scarborough.

Now that's thinking outside the box!! Nice one
 
Sent my objection in stating that there may be a human rights issue here.
 
night fishing

Could we all say we are night fishing on the coast?
 
pay to park

I am sure tha we all would pay to park at the same rates that it would cost to park juring the day say :£4 per night so they are getting double for the same parking space that would be normally empty.
