BROAD LANE OFF LICENCE, 73 BROAD LANE, N15 To consider an application for a variation of a premises licence. Additional documents:
Minutes: Daliah Barrett, Licensing Officer, introduced the application for a variation to the premises licence for 73 Broad Lane, N15. Representations had been made by the Metropolitan Police and Public Health due to concerns of potential rise of Anti-Social Behaviour that could occur causing problems for residents in the surrounding residential areas. A previous application by the applicant Mr Cantay in 2016 had been withdrawn following evidence gathered by the Licensing Authority and Police showing that Mr Cantay was not retailing alcohol responsibly
Monica Ukandu, Public Health, outlined her representation against the application as set out in pages 30-34 of the agenda pack. The area surrounding the premises had a high volume of vertical drinking establishments and known street drinking issues and Public Health had concerns that these issues may be further compounded by additional premises making alcohol available in the early hours of the morning. Public Health were of the opinion that the application should be refused, however, if the Committee were minded to approve the application, a number of conditions had been put forward for inclusion on the licence.
Josef Cannon, Applicant Representative, presented the application for a variation to the premises licence. It was highlighted that there had been no instances of issues or breaches of the current license since the historical problems that occurred in 2016. Mr Cannon raised the fact that the Metropolitan Police were not present at the hearing demonstrating in his opinion that there was no significant concern on their part regarding the application for this premises and advised the Committee that Mr Cantay was happy to accept all of the conditions put forward by both the Police and Public Health. In response to questions from the Committee, Mr Cantay explained that it was cost effective to extend his supply of alcohol hours due to the fact that a large percentage of his income was through the sale of alcohol. He also confirmed the number of staff working at the premises and their roles within the business All parties summed up and the Committee adjourned to consider the application.
RESOLVED The Committee carefully considered the application for a variation of the Premises Licence made by the applicant, the representations made by the applicant, Public Health, the Council’s Statement of Licensing Policy and the Licensing Act 2003 s182 guidance.
Having heard the parties’ evidence, the Committee resolved to vary the premises licence as follows:
Supply of Alcohol Sunday to Thursday 0800 to 0100 Friday to Saturday 0800 to 0300 For consumption of Alcohol OFF the premises
Hours open to the Public Monday to Sunday 0600 to 0300
The committee decided to grant the license in part subject to conditions which it considered appropriate and proportionate to promote the licensing objectives. The extended hours were granted as asked save for on Sunday when the Committee felt that the hours for the supply of alcohol should be restricted to 1am.
The Committee added the following conditions which were requested by the Metropolitan Police and agreed with ... view the full minutes text for item 51. |
