Decision (including
reasons if different from those set out in report):
The Sub-Committee considered an
application by Real Ale Ltd for a variation of a premises licence
in respect of Real Ale Ltd, 4 Formosa Street,
London, W9 1EE.
The Licensing Officer
provided an outline of the application to the Sub-Committee and
clarified that the current hours for off sales of alcohol listed in
the report (at page 3) were incorrect and should read 10:00 to
21:30 on Mondays and 10:00 to 22:00 Tuesday to Sunday. This was due
to an error with the hours that had incorrectly been inserted on
the current licence at page 34 of the report. It was also confirmed
that Environmental Health had withdrawn their representation
following the agreement of conditions with the
applicant.
Mr Peyton and Mr King,
the applicants, explained that through their premises they had
managed to build up strong relationships with the local community.
They had taken an active involvement in various local events and as
such, it was considered that they had made a positive contribution
to the neighbourhood. The reason why the variation application had
been submitted was simply to allow the business to continue to
thrive in the local area. It was recognised that concerns had been
raised over the proposed variation to the licence; however, no
concerns had been submitted by the resident living above the
premises or by the landlord of the property. The Sub-Committee was
advised also that Environmental Health (EH) had received no
complaints of any nature regarding the operation of the premises.
Many of the concerns raised about the local area did not relate to
the premises who wanted to be a considerate neighbour.
The applicants
provided information on the three aspects of the application.
Firstly, it was requested that conditions be removed from the
licence in order to enable them to place waste outside the premises
for collection more than 30 minutes before the collection time.
Other establishments on the street already did this and allowing
the premises to do the same would mean they would no longer have to
store it internally ...

Decision (including
reasons if different from those set out in report):
The Sub-Committee considered an
application by Halamar (Golden Square) Ltd for a new premises
licence in respect of Basement and Ground
Floor, 37-38 Golden Square, London, W1F 9BS.
The Licensing Officer
introduced the application to the Sub-Committee and confirmed that
one of the local residents had withdrawn their representation
following additional information supplied by the
applicant.
Mr Thomas,
representing the applicant, provided to the Sub-Committee with an
overview of the current contractual situation with the site. It was
explained that the applicant, Mr Depoix, had agreed a lease for the
premises subject to a licence being granted for the hours
requested. Mr Thomas confirmed that a meeting had been held with Ms
Callingham, a local resident, to try to address some of the
concerns she had raised in her representation. Following this
meeting it was now proposed to make the following amendments to the
proposed conditions on the licence:
- Place the full model
restaurant condition on the licence, MC66;
- Include a condition
preventing customers smoking from taking drinks or glass containers
outside with them; and
- Requiring all sales
of alcohol for consumption off the premises to be in sealed
containers only and not to be consumed on the premises.
Mr Thomas considered
that the main issues concerning the application centred on the
opening hours and the fact the hours for the sale of alcohol were
30 minutes in excess of the Council’s core hour’s
policy from Monday to Thursday and one hour on Sundays. The reasons
for this was that the applicant wanted to open at 07:00 throughout
the week, as they wanted to provide their customers with a
breakfast option. In addition, the terminal hours relating to the
sale for alcohol had been applied for as these were in line with
the hours granted for the planning permission. The premises would
operate as a restaurant with the slight extension beyond core hours
being sought simply to allow customers to finish their meals. The
premises building was being redeveloped and benefited from a
current licence. The hours on the application were ...

Decision (including
reasons if different from those set out in report):
The Sub-Committee considered an
application by Regency Coffee Boutique Limited for a new premises
licence in respect of 61 Kingly Street, London, W1B 5QL. The
premises operated as a convenience store and the application was
seeking an authorisation to sell alcohol for consumption off the
premises.
The Licensing Officer
introduced the application to the Sub-Committee and confirmed that
Environmental Health and the Police had withdrawn their
representations following the agreement of conditions with the
applicant.
Mr Jordan, representing the
applicant, advised the Sub-Committee that constructive discussions
regarding the application had been held
with the responsible authorities and local residents. Attempts had
been to engage with the sole resident who had made a representation
but these had proven unsuccessful. Following these discussions the hours proposed had been scaled
back and the conditions to be added to the licence were similar to
those operated by comparable premises in the local area. As such,
this had resulted in Environmental Health and the Police
withdrawing their representations. The applicant was a very
experienced operator and had run convenience stores since 1995. The
Sub-Committee was advised that during
this time no issues had ever been reported at any of his premises.
Details of the in-depth training programme staff were required to
undertake was provided along with
confirmation that a Challenge 25 policy was operated. The
Sub-Committee also noted that the only forms of ID accepted at the
premises would be either a passport or driving licence. All alcohol
on display would be stored behind locked screens outside of the
hours permitting the sale of alcohol and CCTV would also be operated at the premises. Therefore,
with the restrictive conditions to be
placed on the licence and the restricted hours for the sale
of alcohol, between 10:00 and 20:00, it was proposed that the
premises would not add to cumulative impact in the local area. It
was recognised that street drinking was
an issue locally and as such, no alcohol above 5.5% abv would be
sold in addition to no sales of single cans of beer.
Ms Haq, representing the
Licensing Authority, thanked the applicant for the productive
discussions which had taken place. It
was acknowledged that restrictive
conditions would be placed on the licence and the proposed hours
were within the Council’s core hours. In terms of
policy the application was considered
compliant and therefore the Licensing Authority’s
representation had only been ...
