PC Dennett asked questions of the applicant.

 

The Regulatory Services Manager asked a question of the applicant.

 

The Licensing Sub-Committee AGREED the following:

 

“Having heard from Kent Police, Environmental Health, the Regulatory Service Manager and the applicant, there are concerns about a knock-on domino effect if the applicant was granted.  There are doubts as to the genuine need for extra hours in regards to alcohol.  The Sub-Committee does not support the application to extend live music.  There are concerns about nuisance to residential boats in the harbour. This would set a worrying precedent.  The Sub-Committee does not support an extension to the late night refreshment licence as again it sets a worrying precedent.  The applicant argues that the application does not make ‘a blip on the seafront’ but the Sub-Committee disagrees and feels the application does not support the licensing objectives which are: the prevention of crime and disorder, public safety, the prevention of public nuisance and the protection of children from harm.”
