The Licensing Department's Report Submitted – the
report of the Licensing Manager giving details of the application to vary the
premises licence for Red Lion, Porthmadog. The application was made in relation
to changes to the interior plans of the public house, and to include an
external area as a licensed area. It was
reported that although the beer garden was already licensed, the application
was made to extend the licensed area of the premises to include structures in
the form of beach huts with alcohol ordered and served via a window in the rear
of the premises. It was noted that
the Licensing Authority Officers had sufficient evidence that the application
had been submitted in accordance with the requirements of the Licensing Act
2003 and the relevant regulations. It was noted that a recent planning
application (C20/0076/44/LL) to provide five beach huts and a 'hatch' door to
the main building had been approved in accordance with conditions that
included: ·
The
use of the wooden huts hereby permitted (with the exception of the smoking
shelters shown on the exisiting site plans) shall not be open to customers
outside the following times 9:00 am to 21:00 pm in any one day. ·
The new bar servery hatch shall be closed outside
the following times 9:00 am to 21:00 pm in any one day. Reference was made
to the measures that had been recommended by the applicant to promote the
licensing objectives, and it was highlighted that these measures would be
included on the licence. Attention was
drawn to the responses received during the consultation period. It was noted
that one objection had been received from a member of the public expressing
concern regarding anti-social matters in terms of noise, public nuisance,
sanitary issues and crime and disorder. The objection was supported with
relevant up-to-date evidence which included short video clips, as well as
screenshots showing the time and date. The Local Member expressed concerns
about noise and public nuisance on behalf of neighbouring residents and the
Environmental Health Service noted the need for the alcohol sales outside and
the use of beach huts to cease at 21:00. The Town Council, the Police and the
Fire and Rescue Service had no objections. It was recommended
that the Committee considered whether any additional precautions needed to be
imposed on the licence's conditions, if it determined to approve the
application in accordance with the observations of Public Protection and the
requirements of the 2003 Licensing Act. In considering the application, the following procedure was adhered to:- · Members of the Sub-committee and the applicant were given the ... view the full minutes text for item 4. |
