Applicant’s agent
Mr Brian Jamieson
Licensing Authority
Ms Susan Figuiredo, Health Safety & Licensing introduced the matter and stated that the application was for the grant of a premises licence for the sale of alcohol from 11:00 hours until 23:00 hours Monday to Saturday and until 22:30 hours on Sunday. She drew members’ attention to objections raised by some residents, Public Safety Team and the police which were annexed to the main report. She added that the Police and the Public Safety Team had indicated the withdrawal of their objections subject to the applicant agreeing to their conditions and confirming their acceptance in writing.
Mr Brian Jamieson the applicant’s started by reiterating that both the Police and Public Safety Team had indicated to withdraw their objections subject to the applicant agreeing to their conditions. He confirmed that the applicant had accepted the conditions in full as imposed by the Police and the Public Safety Team. In reference to the objections raised by residents he stated that the premises would not be used as a bar and that amplified music would not be played on the premises. In reference to the objections raised by residents, Mr Jamieson stated that the operation would not involve the use of the garden so as to prevent interference with the objector’s use of the garden. He continued that the issue about smoking had been grossly exaggerated by the objector. Mr Jamieson confirmed that the capacity limit would be set for 50 persons and that the sound proofing above the level required had been installed.
At this point the applicant and his agent were asked to leave the meeting room to enable the Sub-Committee to discuss the relevant issues of the application.
Having considered the submissions and representations made by the applicant and the objectors, the Sub-Committee determined;
That the application by Hell Yes Ltd for the grant of a premises licence for the sale of alcohol from 11:00 hours until 23:00 hours Monday to Saturday and from 12:00 hours until 22:30 hours on Sunday be granted subject to conditions as agreed with the Police i.e.;
a. Open glass containers shall not be permitted outside the premises
b. Installation of CCTV to Home Office Guidance standards
c. Adoption and adherence of a “Challenge 21” policy
d. Maintenance of a refusal book and an incident book which shall be made available to the Police and Licensing Authority
e. Total capacity limits including staff and performers shall not exceed 50
f. Secure facility to store controlled drugs and weapons prior to collection as set out in the representation from the Public Safety Team.
In arriving at its decision, the Sub-Committee noted the acceptance in full of the conditions required by the Police and the Public Safety Team. Members also noted that as the applicant was not applying for music licence and that the hours were limited as set out above and conditions as set out above would be imposed, serious nuisance was unlikely to be caused to the residents and therefore there were no grounds to refuse the application.
