It will be helpful for the plan to acknowledge the two distinct business areas, which have different requirements in terms of local plan policy.

Accompanying Footnote 51 should be changed to more appropriately reflect the contribution of the Goodwood Estate to the local, regional and National economy.

Local Plan Paragraphs 10.71 – 10.75 The Estate supports the local plan in recognising the importance to the district of the Goodwood Motor Circuit and Airfield. The Estate similarly supports Policies A16 and A17 and changes to Local Plan Maps, A9a, and both A16a. While the airfield and motor circuit occupy the same area of land (Map A16a) it will be helpful for the plan to acknowledge the two distinct business areas, which have different requirements in terms of local plan policy.

Accompanying Footnote 51 should be changed to more appropriately reflect the contribution of the Goodwood Estate to the local, regional and National economy. The Estate has shared with the planning authority the LSE report commissioned to research the contribution of Goodwood (LSE “The Goodwood Estate: Estimating Socioeconomic Contribution January 2020”).

This document providing evidence from all Good businesses over a period of time, should be referenced in paragraph 10.71, rather than the one-off event mentioned. It will be appreciated that if a single event generates a significant local and National turnover of some £60M in 2014, the combined turnover from all Goodwood businesses will be of far greater significance. It is this most important and significant contribution to local, regional and National economics, that must be protected, enhanced and sustained through policies of the local plan. The report is being updated and will be shared with the planning authority when available (expected before the Local Plan Examination)

The paragraph should emphasise, as raised in other representations, the true value of the Goodwood Estate to the local and National Economy.

Goodwood Estate generates an estimated economic contribution of £435m into the national economy and £125m in tax contributions, of which £314m and £100m respectively benefit the local economy (2019 Study by London School of Economics). Consequently, one of the area's most significant providers of employment, homes and economic benefit, is under threat from inappropriate adjacent development. The Plan should ensure the benefits provided by Goodwood and its operations are sustained by appropriate policy protection and opportunity.
