There is a resident count of 99.
Representations Received
Representations were received from the Licensing Authority, the Metropolitan Police and the Environmental Health Service (withdrawn).
SUBMISSIONS AND REASONS
Ms Jessica Donovan, Senior Licensing Officer, outlined the application to the Committee. She advised that this was an application for a New Premise Licence located in the St James Ward and West End Cumulative Impact Zone. She confirmed that representations had been received from the Licensing Authority (LA), Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) and Environmental Health Service (EHS), which had been withdrawn following agreement of conditions. She confirmed that the additional submissions from the Applicant and the Interested Parties had been circulated. Mr Stewart Gibson, representing the Applicant Company, outlined the application to the Committee. He advised that they were applying for off-sales for their convenience store under the Londis brand. The brand was a subsidiary of Tesco, so they had the support of the brand, including their field management teams and head office. Mr Gibson advised that their request was within WCC Core Hours and no more than 15% of their selling space would be dedicated to alcohol (including the space behind the counter). Spirits would be supplied behind the counter and the sale of alcohol would be ancillary to the main use as a convenience store. He advised that selling alcohol would be key to the growth of the business as it was likely to double the basket spend and 95% of similar stores sell alcohol for that reason. Mr Gibson advised that they would not sell single cans or bottles and there would be no sale of beer, cider or larger above 5.5% except for pre-approved premium beers and ciders.

She confirmed that representations had been received from one interested party. She confirmed that the additional submissions from the Applicant and the Interested Party had been circulated.
