Representations
The Interim Assistant Director, Waste, Fleet and Transport Services presented a report (Document “B”) which outlined an application for review of a Premises Licence authorising the sale of alcohol and the provision of regulated entertainment for one event per calendar year. The Panel was advised that the licence was restricted to the hours of 1200-2000 and that it did not have a specified date within each year. The application for review had been made on the basis of concerns about public nuisance and crime and disorder.
The Licensing and Local Land Charges Manager advised the Panel that the supporting documentation for the review had been served on all parties to the hearing and that supporting documents from the Event Management Team had also been circulated, although they had been received late.

They also suffered from nuisance caused by people who loitered outside the store while drunk. Although the stewards for the street party tried to help with the problem they were often too busy to do so. Such problems meant that customers could not access the store or were unwilling to approach the premises if they had young children with them. The closure of the road for the street party also meant that potential customers were discouraged. There had been previous problems of party goers trying to enter the store while holding bottles and glassware containing alcohol and even an incident of public urination outside ... view the full minutes text for item 3. |
