Representation Summary:

The possible Pre-determination of a Future Planning Application: Para 3.142 includes "visitor accommodation", alongside items such as recreation, leisure and horse racing. This clause could give the Racecourse a pre-determining future approved planning application for the building of "visitor accommodation" on the land, e.g. a hotel. Therefore, such a reference should be excluded so that any such future planning application can be considered on its own merits and not be influenced by a WDC policy document.
Main point of objection is the reference to "visitor accommodation" in 3.142 in the CT7 camping and Caravan sites, this must be removed from this document.

Objections to CT7, (Warwick Castle and Warwick Racecourse/St. Mary's Lands), of WDC-New Local Plan May 2014
We have just been able to have a glance of the WDC-New Local Plan, May 2014. The possible Pre-determination of a Future Planning Application: Para 3.142 includes "visitor accommodation", alongside items such as recreation, leisure and horse racing. This clause could give the Racecourse a pre-determining future approved planning application for the building of "visitor accommodation" on the land, e.g. a hotel. Therefore, such a reference should be excluded so that any such future planning application can be considered on its own merits and not be influenced by a WDC policy document. The building of a hotel there has so many effects and implications that have already been outlined several times to WDC and we do not want to go through them once again here. The main point of our objection is " the reference to visitor accommodation in 3.142 in the CT7 camping and Caravan sites", this must be removed from this document.
