Dear Sir

 

I fully endorse the feelings of ********* of **** Braemar Avenue re the alcohol licence for 216 Ealing Road which has done nothing but bring anti-social behaviour, litter, health hazards such as spitting in the street and generally encouraged groups of seemingly purposeless males to congregate, later urinating in Braemar avenue and discarding their plastic bags and beer cans along the road and in One Tree Hill.

 

The residents of Braemar Avenue are very disadvantaged by this situation and our children walk in fear to their destinations.  Most of the males affected seem to belong to a group which has dubious connections with the working world and which has too much time to use the alcohol provided in a way which has a negative impact on the community. The shop and its customers is a blight on the neighbourhood and should be a target for both Brent council and the local constabulary.

 

The shop itself is chaotic and unclean and is not the kind of shop to allow for the planned regeneration for this area to be implemented.  Since its adoption of the off-licence status, the whole area has in fact degenerated and, like *******, my family and I feel unsupported by Brent council and unable to stay in the area, if, indeed, we are able to escape the mess created by the lack of planning in terms of licenses allocated to premises which are either supporting gambling or alcohol.

 

It is incumbent on the council to begin to rectify the problems it has created and a curtailment of such licensing is much overdue.  Please take the first step and revoke the alcohol licence for 216 Ealing Road.  I await your positive response to our concerns.

 

Yours faithfully
