Warwick Castle and Warwick Racecourse should have separate policies as they are so different, particularly in terms of scale and the number of visitors. The consultation on the town centre suggested that Warwick Racecourse should not be treated as a special case. The Local Plan is therefore inconsistent with this.
There is already a management plan for the St Marys Lands and it is not clear why a new masterplan is needed, how the plan will be developed and who will be responsible for preparing it. The reference to visitor accommodation in 3.142 is inconsistent with previous applications and could be seen as a form of pre-determination without justification. There is already sufficient visitor accommodation in the District including close to the Racecourse.
The policy seems to favour the Jockey Club over other stakeholder in St Marys Lands despite evidence that the Jockey Club is not financially under threat. The Policy is in conflict with the 1984 Warwick District Council Act which refers to St Marys Lands and requires 25 hectares should be kept undeveloped for public access and recreation.
