Summary of Application

 

This is an application for a new Premises Licence under the Licensing Act 2003 (“The Act”).  The Premises intend to operate as a restaurant unit within the Marylebone Square development.  This is a new Premises Licence application and therefore no Premises history exists. 

 

Representations Received

 

• Environmental Health Services (EHS)
• Metropolitan Police Services (MPS) (Withdrawn)
• Marylebone Association
• Councillor Karen Scarborough (Marylebone Ward Councillor)
• Resident x 8

 

Issues raised by Objectors.

 

The EHS states that the proposal may undermine the licensing objectives of Prevention of Public Nuisance, Public Safety and Prevention of Harm to Children. The Applicant has offered an extensive list of conditions but these may not be sufficient to allay Environmental Health concerns, in particular further information is requested on capacity, prevention of internal noise transfer, prevention of odour and dispersal at closing time.

 

The residents main concerns were:

·       the new restaurants in Marylebone Square would create noise and be disruptive in a highly residential area.

·       the Applicant was seeking to operate beyond the Council’s Core Hours Policy which would disrupt the quiet neighbourhood at night.

·       the dispersal of patrons.

·       the close proximity of the proposed venue to a primary school is not conducive with having a safe environment for children.

·       antisocial behaviour increasing in the area due to the presence of the venue.

·       noise pollution in the area.

·       the litter impact on the neighbourhood from increased traffic - waste, cigarette butts, glasses etc.

·       school children having to walk past the effects of antisocial behaviour and litter on the way to school.

·       research shows the presence of these venues near schools poses a long term risk to children in terms of increased use of alcohol, as they go through the stages of child development.

·       Moxon St and Aybrook St were very busy thoroughfares during the day.

·       Tables and chairs outside the Premises.

·       Delivery and waste collections in the area.

The main concerns expressed by St Vincent Catholic Primary School, the Marylebone Association and the residents were:

·       the close proximity of the proposed premises to a primary school is not conducive with having a safe environment for children. The presence of the Premises would affect collection, pick-up and evacuation procedures.

·       the Applicant was seeking to operate beyond the Council’s Core Hours Policy which would disrupt the quiet neighbourhood at night.

·       the dispersal of patrons.

·       antisocial behaviour increasing in the area due to the presence of the venue.

·       noise pollution in the area.

·       the litter impact on the neighbourhood from increased traffic - waste, cigarette butts, glasses etc

·       school children having to walk past the effects of antisocial behaviour and litter on the way to school.

·       research shows the presence of these venues near schools poses a long- term risk to children in terms of increased use of alcohol, as they go through the stages of child development.

·       Tables and chairs outside the Premises.
