Representations Received

 

·       Maxwell Koduah - Environmental Health Service

·       2 Local Resident (opposing)

·       3 Local Residents (supporting)

 

Summary of Representations

 

·       THE EHO states that as presented, the application would have the likely effect of causing an increase in Public Nuisance and may affect Public Safety within the area

·       Three supporting resident’s representations states the operation is a benefit to the area, and unlikely to cause a nuisance to the area. It’s well lit operation and door staff will deter crime and disorder and the operators are experience and respected.

·       The two objecting resident’s concerns are that the Premises will cause public nuisance as a result of the longer hours requested. The premises licence should be restricted to Westminster’s Core Hours. There will be disturbance to residents living in the area from taxis and car use and customers dispersing at closing times.
