Mr Brown addressed the Sub-Committee. Members asked questions of Mr Brown. The Sub-Committee agreed: Having heard from the Regulatory Services Manager and Environmental Health Officer and noting the applicant was not in attendance but was aware of the proceedings and stated that the Sub-Committee could go ahead without him being present, the Sub-Committee decided on Option 3.2- to refuse the application. By operating a Temporary Event Notice, it would be a breach of conditions of the Planning consent – conditions limit the hours to 10.30am to 23.00, Monday to Sunday so to safeguard amenities currently enjoyed by the occupants of nearby residential properties. It was noted the applicant has not demonstrated any special circumstances or given reasons for a departure from policy. The decision has been made taking account of the following licensing objectives: the prevention of crime and disorder and the prevention of public nuisance.
