“This was an application to vary Premises Licence Number LN/2005118, relating to premises known as The St Mildred’s Bay, Beach Road, Westgate on Sea, Kent, CT8 8AD.

We note, in particular, that local residents have a genuine concern regarding the potential for the operation of these premises to result in noise outbreak causing prejudice to the Prevention of Public Nuisance Licensing Objective. And we do not minimise those concerns.
We have also noted that the Guidance issued under section 182 of the Licensing Act 2003 stipulates that we should accept the advice of the Police on matters relating to the prevention of ... view the full minutes text for item 694. |
