Arrivals of Travelers are usual at this time of year. They took over the Nuits-St-Georges rugby pitch this Saturday afternoon. Two hundred people for about forty caravans which will remain for fifteen days.
“They are not unwelcome.”
“They are not unwelcome“Explains the various right mayor of the town, Alain Cartron. The fact remains that the place is not dedicated to this type of installation, moreover there are none in Nuits-Saint-Georges. So to have access to water and electricity, Travelers use the D system.which raises some concerns.
Connection to fire hydrants
” What bothers us a little is that they connect themselves to the water pipes. They will go to the fire hydrants. With the little water we have in the water tables, it may not be the time to pump the water tables and risk not having enough pressure in the fire hydrants”, worries Alain Cartron.
“Last year, everything went well”
So the gendarmerie asked that the caravans not be washed since the territory is on red alert for drought. Message received assures Ruben, one of the men in the camp: “We will follow the instructions of the police. We were there last year, everything went well. There was no damage, no complaint, nothing broken. we may be frowned upon by some, but we try to make sure everything goes well.” The mayor has planned to visit them on Monday.
