Warwick Racecourse:

Strongly object to inclusion in the plan, an important area of land that should only be developed with the full consent of the people of Warwick and not as a Conference Centre or Hotel.

Strong objection from peoplein Warwick toa greater intensive commercialisation of this site, which includes Local Wildlife Site. The area is also within the District Council Conservation Area and the area was common land has a high level of public use (which should remain). The whole area should remain as desingated by the Warwick District Council Act 1984. This would be put totally at risk if the Local Plan contained a carte blanche for large scale commerical development.

There is not detail of what may be included in a master plan, although it is probable that it will follow GVA's proposal which is to maximise Warwick Racecourse and the Jockey Club's financial position.
