Decision (including reasons if
different from those set out in report):
Ms Michelle Steward (Presenting
Officer) confirmed that this was a new premises licence application
made by Arboretum Lounge Ltd (Applicant), noting that the
Premises intended
to operate as a refreshment and function space for employees
working in offices within the Premises. She advised that the application had received a number of
objections from local residents, Environmental Health (EH) and the
Licensing Authority (LA). Ms Steward noted that a letter
dated 28th March was not received by the
residents. She also confirmed that the
Premises were in St James’s Ward and in the West End
Cumulative Impact Area (CIA).
With reference to the letter dated the 28th of
March, Mr Spieglar advised the
Sub-Committee that the Applicant had hand delivered letters to
local residents setting out the proposals for the Premises but this
had not been received the residents and
was the reason why a follow-up letter (24th April refers and
contained within the committee papers) was sent to the residents.
Mr Spieglar advised that with regard to the letters, his client had
hoped to have conversations with the residents before the hearing,
unfortunately this did not happen. Mr Spieglar stated that Mr Ronald Mind was
the founder of the company and was also the founder of the Library,
a private members club which he founded in 2013. Using Streetmap, Mr Spieglar highlighted the
location of the Library in relation to the new premises for the
Arboretum, he also showed the distance between the Premises and the
entrance to the resident’s properties. Mr Spieglar also highlighted the servicing
yard on St Martin’s Lane.
Mr Spieglar noted that the Library’s
premises licence was included in the Applicants report pack, he
advised that the application for this premises licence was almost
identical to the application for the Library’s premises
licence. Mr Spieglar advised that the
application was exactly the same as the Library, with the only
difference being the categories they were seeking to provide
licensable activities ...
