Representations
The Assistant Director, Waste, Fleet and Transport Services presented a report, Document “I” which outlined an application for a variation to extend permitted hours on a Friday and Saturday for the supply of alcohol, playing of recorded music and provision of late night refreshment. Members were advised that representations in respect of the application had been received from both the Environmental Health Service and a ward councillor.
The applicant attended the meeting and spoke in support of his application, stressing that he had taken the representations made extremely seriously and had addressed the concerns within them as far as he could. He had instituted a no-glass policy whereby patrons of the bar were not permitted to take any kind of glass or bottle outdoors. This policy was regulated by the door staff who had now been employed. He also stressed that he had a friendly working relationship with his neighbour businesses and that they worked together, in the main, to address the issues of littering in front of their premises.
The Chair questioned the applicant in respect of patrons drinking outdoors; about the seats and tables that were reported to be outside the bar and about patrons using the outdoor space to the rear of the premises. The applicant confirmed that patrons were no longer permitted to take their drinks into the street after dark; that there were tables and chairs in front of the bar as it had previously been a café and that patrons could not use the outside space to the rear of the bar as it was the fire exit only.
Another member questioned the applicant in respect of the maximum number of patrons that the bar could hold and whether he intended to remove the tables and chairs from the pathway as they could encourage patrons to linger outside. He was advised that the maximum occupancy was 80 and that the applicant would remove the outdoor seating if so required. He did however confirm that drinks in glass receptacles weren’t permitted to be taken outside and that he had installed wall-hung ashtrays to prevent littering. He had instituted a shut down procedure for each evening which included a full clean-up outside.
He also confirmed that the Police had never had to contact him in respect of the bar, nor had he ever had to call the Police to attend. He advised that there had been a noise problem in the summer but that had been addressed. He also advised that, as far as he understood, there were few residents in the flats above the businesses on Brook Street and that no resident had approached him direct ... view the full minutes text for item 6. |
