GT02 Land abutting the Fosse Way close to A425 junction
Representation ID: 64883
Received: 06/05/2014
Respondent: Warwickshire Exhibition Centre
It was inappropriate for the Council to name Warwickshire Exhibition Centre in earlier publications. This has lead to difficulties in securing bookings for exhibitions and in two instances exhibitions have not proceeded.
The centre attracts over 40000 vistors per year with knock on benefits for the local economy. The Centre employs 10 permanent staff and 30 temporary staff. This employment is under threat.
External organisers will change their perception of the venue if the proposals go ahead with concern over issues like vehicle security. The site could become derelict leading to further security concerns.
