They have already made their point of view on several occasions. Regularly, the question Travelers Returns regularly in the discussions between elected officials from the community of communes of the Dorée Valley. Several concerns encountered in recent months have led inter -municipal officials to adopt a more restrictive position. Whether in the illegal installation on land, on the purchase of land with a view to sedentarization, or the application of the internal regulations of the reception area in Laigneville.
But on this equipment, occupied by a few caravans, it is difficult to live this tightening of bolts. “We do not feel considered by elected officials and officials of the community of communes,” explains a non-sedentary. As for life on site. “There is no light on site at night. There is no room so that our children can cycle or play inside. ”
“They have our contact details”
He continues: “The price of electricity has increased. If you pay at KW/h, it happens that it cuts in the middle of the night. Because we find ourselves at 0. We must then wait for the next day and the arrival of the agents to recover the electricity. There is no bank card payment terminal on site. ”
“Firefighters cannot enter their vehicle inside,” continue other travelers. “If there is a concern, they have to take the sick or injured to him.” And to ensure that they cannot break the rules: “Agents have copies of the documents of our vehicles.”
The school question
Then comes the question of schooling. “The regulations are clear: we can educate children for a period of three months, but one must respect a one month beat between two periods,” explains parents of travel. “We can ask for derogations, but our last requests have all been refused. We even wrote to the prefecture, unanswered. “
Travelers are then reduced to finding expedients to ensure the educational continuity of their children.
More regularization
Another discord is the purchase of land with a view to sedentarization. “The municipalities make pre-empties to prevent us from buying using pre-emption,” we are continuing in Laigneville. However, we are not trying to settle on agricultural land. ”
On this specific point, the mayor Christophe Dietrich has already spoken several times. Whether in the municipal council or within the authorities of the Golden Valley. More particularly on the questions of regularization of land located in the wetland. “It is not worth requesting a water and electricity meter. They will not get them, “he said in June 2024. More recent words in community council suggest that the person concerned has not changed their idea. On the contrary.
