Summary of Application

 

The Sub-Committee has determined a new application for a Premises Licence under the Licensing Act 2003 (“The Act”). The Premises sought opening hours including alcohol from 10:00 – 23:30 from Monday to Thursday, until 00:00 on a Friday and Saturday and the hours of 12:00 until 22:30 on a Sunday. This includes plays, films, live music, recorded music, or the performance of dance in an open space within the premises. A terminal hour for these activities has been proposed at 22:00 every day.

 

There is a resident count of 158.

 

Representations received

 

•        Metropolitan Police (PC Reaz Guerra)

•        Environmental Health Service (Ian Watson)

•        Licensing Authority (Roxsana Haq)

•        Covent Garden Community Association (Richard Brown and David Kaner)

•        The Soho Society (Richard Brown)

•        24 Local residents

 

Summary of issues raised by objectors

 

The Metropolitan Police maintained their representation on the grounds that the application would not meet the Licensing objectives and that there was insufficient detail submitted in the application. Environment Health Service made a similar objection but did propose conditions for the Sub-Committee’s consideration. The Licensing Authority also did not believe that this application would seek to serve the Licensing objectives and highlighted that the premises are located within the West End Cumulative Impact Area. The Covent Garden Community Association and The Soho Society made similar representations on the ground of the dispersal of patrons causing noise to residents, increased vertical drinking in the area leading to intoxication and a potential to exacerbate the already high levels of nuisance, crime and disorder in the area. Local residents raised many of the same issues as the two community groups however, they also highlighted how the deliveries to the area could increase the amount of noise created.

 

Policy Position

HRS1

 

Applications within the core hours will generally be granted for the relevant premises uses, subject to not being contrary to other policies in the Statement of Licensing Policy. Applications for hours outside the core hours would be considered on their merits, subject to other relevant policies and with particular regard to the following:

 

1.     The demonstration of compliance in the requirements of policies CD1, PS1, PN1 and CH1 associated with the likelihood of the effect of the grant of a licence for later or earlier hours on crime and disorder, public safety, public nuisance and the protection of children from harm.

1.       The application meeting the requirements of policies CD1, PS1, PN1  

          and CH1.

 

 

SUBMISSIONS AND REASONS

 

The Chair of the Sub-Committee opened proceedings by explaining that Item 1 on the agenda, would be heard now and the following 3 items to come after would be heard together in the round but that four separate Decisions would be issued. The Chair explained that as all 4 Items were in relation to the same Applicant but with different applications due to the spread of locations, that there would be no need to hear 4 individual applications. However, Item 1 was the most contentious and had generated the most objections and should the Sub-Committee choose to not grant approval, there would be no benefit in hearing any item thereafter.

 

The Presenting Officer Ms Emanuela Meloyan outlined the application to the Sub-Committee. She advised that this was a new premises licence under the Act in respect of 5 Langley Street and representations had been received from the Environmental Health Service, the Metropolitan Police Service, the Covent Garden Resident Association, the Soho Society, the Local Authority and twenty six interested parties. She also advised that the application was supported by one party and that the Premises were located within the St. James’s Ward and in the West End Cumulative Impact Zone.

 

Mr Craig Baylis addressed the Sub-Committee on behalf of the Applicant and explained that the Applicant had been in constant communication with local residents and responsible authorities throughout. Mr Baylis advised that a total of £74 million was to be invested into the area and the surrounding benefits to traders and communities would be substantial. An example of this is the kitchen with an open residency for those in the community wanting to train and develop their culinary skills. There would be a “grain to glass” operation with a brewery on-site to have the products of sale on site for consumption on or off the premises. Mr Baylis explained that there was a Planning application scheduled for the 9^th August 2022, however the operational management plan had been made available to the Sub-Committee for the hearing today. Works would start in August/September 2022 to then be completed by September or October 2023.

 

Mr Baylis explained that this application was for the basement of the old Langley nightclub that the Applicant wanted to turn this area into a conference centre for corporate events and ticketed events. This space would only be used for core hours and would not be expected to be in constant use. The Old Brewers Yard was also within this application. He stated that this was an open space area but would have part-coverage, the toilets for patrons. This area was based within the Old Langley nightclub area, the basement. The Old Brewers Yard would be expected to have 100 seated covers as a condition. Mr Baylis explained that the two licences as such, previously there was a licence for a 500-person capacity nightclub with a 01:00 licence. He explained that this was an application for 200 people in an open space with some coverage under core hours. Food would be available to those people. Mr Baylis stated that he understood that dispersal had been a key issue for local residents, addressing this concern he explained that there were two routes for egress, Old Brewers Yard leads out into Langley Street and the basement area leads out into Shelton Street with an SIA on both exits.

 

In response to the Sub-Committee questions Mr Tom Johnson, the Project Director, explained that the kitchen would be open to local talents, they would also work with local foodbanks to use their spent grain to make bread or for compost this was   done previously during the Covid-19 pandemic. Mr Johnson also stated that they would be open to the idea of peppercorn rent for businesses using the event space.

 

In response to the Sub-Committee question about the capacity for the overall application covering all four Items and how this might negatively affect local residents, both Mr Baylis and Mr Johnson explained that the events were prebooked events and so they would not have hundreds of people turning up without notice. There would also be SIA Door Supervisors on both egress and ingress points.

 

The Sub-Committee noted that it was Council policy to refuse (Policy PB1) with the only offering as an exception being that a 500 capacity nightclub will now be a total 200 capacity basement and open area. Mr Baylis explained that this would remove a troublesome licence for the nightclub in replacement of a predominantly 100 cover licence in the open area as the basement area of the old Langley nightclub would be used for private events and used occasionally.

 

Ms Alison Oswald, a local resident addressed the Sub-Committee virtually she explained that she lives in a Council-managed block, but people’s perception of Covent Garden was not that it was residential and family-centred. Ms Oswald explained that some of the families have young children and there are also people of retirement age in the area, both these groups especially do not want their sleep to be disturbed from early morning deliveries and people leaving this premises at a late hour. Of particular concern to her was the roof terrace in a further application made by the Applicant. Ms Oswald was also concerned about the egress towards Covent Garden underground station as this would not have the capacity to take this increased number of people in the area, where as Leicester Square station would be able to handle dispersal more easily. In response to the Sub-Committee, she stated that she would prefer the bar to close at 22:00 hours.

 

Mr Ian Watson on behalf of Environmental Health Service addressed the Sub-Committee and confirmed that had he had been engaged with this application and had given pre-application advice to the Applicant. Mr Watson advised that it was an intensive area to control the street environment. He stated that when reading the documents, there was a vagueness around the seating and vertical drinking arrangements with dispersal not clearly stipulated. He stated that there was a draft application that has gone to the Planning Committee, but this has not been confirmed as there are multiple ingress and egress points, this does need to be clarified. Mr Watson also expressed concern about the noise report conducted by the Applicant as this was undertaken towards the end of 2021 when London especially was hit by the Omicron Covid variant with many people isolating due to contracting Covid or pre-emptively isolating to avoid catching Covid. Mr Watson stated that the reduction in visitors to London and Londoners reducing their social interactions should be factored into the levels of noise recorded in the noise report. Mr Watson also had some questions for the Applicants, namely, whether there was a smoking policy, the request is for core hours in the external yard but within the proposal it stated that there will be no entertainment after 22:00, where will glass bottles be collected from and can 2 days of waste be stored.

 

In response, Mr Baylis confirmed that waste can be held for 2 days and will be stored in the basement area. The covering for the yard will only be 50% of the area leaving half uncovered for smokers. Planners had not yet approved the operational management plan, so some details do remain to be confirmed. Mr Baylis also confirmed that if the Sub-Committee wished, they would drop the application for events in the yard and use Temporary Event Notices instead.

 

PC Reaz Guerra on behalf of the Metropolitan Police Service stated that he was present to assist the Sub-Committee. He raised a question pertaining to the yard area being enclosed, this was answered by Mr Baylis. He stated that the Police were pleased to note that SIA’s will be present at both exit points. This will act as some protection for people casually spilling out into the street in case of pickpocketing and theft.

 

Ms Roxsana Haq representing the Licensing Authority advised the Sub-Committee that the Licensing Authority had maintained their representation as there is a policy presumption under Policy PB1 to refuse the application. She stated   that it was for members of the Sub-Committee to determine whether the applicant’s intention to surrender the licence for the basement area at 5 Langley Street licence would be adequate to depart from policy.

 

Mr Richard Brown, Licensing Lawyer, Westminster Citizens Advice Bureau, on behalf of the Covent Garden Community Association and the Soho Society advised the Sub-Committee that this was not a review of the Old Langley licence and should not be viewed as such, this was a new application. He stated that in relation to the Langley licence it was welcomed that this licence would be surrendered, he would expect Mercers who currently hold it only to offer out the premises to a responsible outfit. Mr Brown explained that the Covent Garden Community Association sees this application as a whole across all 4 Items before the Sub-Committee today and that this was another licence being granted within the Cumulate Impact Zone. He stated that planning permission had not been granted for this application. Mr Brown stated that the comments and submissions given were also representations of the Soho Society.

 

Mr David Kaner on behalf of the Covent Garden Community Association expressed concerns in relation to the total capacity for the venue which would be around 1,000 people whereas, the Langley Street licence had just 500 people in the basement area and will be during the days as well as the evenings. Mr Kaner also reiterated that this was within a Cumulative Impact Zone and the Applicant here representing Diageo must explain in detail why this would not impact the area despite the potential doubling of capacity. Mr Kaner stated although part covered, noise will escape from the yard area and he agreed with Mr Watson from the Environmental Health Service that the acoustic report needed to be carefully considered given the timeframe it was taken. He stated that the issue of dispersal was of concern and he requested that the serving of alcohol should end at 23:00 hours, with people leaving via Shelton Street until 22:30 and then from Langley Street afterwards to reduce the impact on residents. Mr Kaner requested that there should be no deliveries before 08:00 hours.

 

Mr Robert Thompson, a local resident of Langley Street addressed the Sub-Committee he explained that he had been a resident there for over a year and there are issues with noise rising upwards due to the narrow nature of the street. He expressed concern about the dispersal of people from the venue and agreed with Mr Kaner than the bar hours should be reduced to 23:00 hours.

 

In summing up Ian Watson for Environmental Health Service reiterated that this was a large development, and a robust dispersal policy would be crucial for the benefit of local residents.

 

Mr Baylis in his summing up stated that there has been engagement with the community by Diageo and that the overall discussion at the Sub-Committee had been constructive. He said there should be significant weight given to the surrendering of the 01:00 licence for the old Langley Street nightclub and that all further issues can be ironed out in consultation with local stakeholders.

 

Conclusion

 

The Sub-Committee has a duty to consider the application on its individual merits and took into account all the committee papers, submissions made by the Applicant and all other parties, and the oral evidence given by those parties in attendance during the hearing in its determination of the matter.

 

The Sub-Committee were mindful that during the hearing the application for regulated entertainment in the outside area had been withdrawn.

 

The Sub-Committee noted that the Applicant had put forward the surrender of the 01:00 nightclub operation Premises Licence for the basement at 5 Langley Street as the justification for the Sub-Committee to permit an exception to policy to grant this application. In surrendering this Licence, the Applicant believes that this would provide sufficient mitigation to demonstrate that this application would not add to cumulative impact in the area.

 

The Sub-Committee had regard to the fact that the Applicant had agreed to the surrender of the Premises Licence for the basement at 5 Langley Street night club which reduced the number of patrons leaving the premises by 500 people. However, having regard to the mitigation from the applicant relating to cumulative impact and the Council’s policy the Sub-Committee was not satisfied that the surrender of the existing premises licence and the Applicant’s proposals would be sufficient not to add to cumulative impact for the hours applied for. The Sub-Committee accepted the argument that 500 people in the basement of the building, in a nightclub type operation is a very different type of operation than that proposed.

 

The use of the outside space in Brewer’s Yard for 200 people drinking alcohol, including vertical drinkers caused the Sub-Committee serious concerns and it was felt that the operation of the outside area would cause a nuisance to residents in the area and therefore negatively impact the licensing objectives.

 

 

 

The Sub-committee noted the Council’s policy and Cumulative Impact Assessment identifies that cumulative impact occurs and increases significantly after 21:00 hours and there was value in the surrender of the licence, but as stated this alone does not overcome the Sub-Committees concern that the hours after 21:00 hours for licensable activities in Brewer’s Yard would add to cumulative impact. Therefore, it was the Sub-Committees decision to grant the sale of alcohol in Brewer’s Yard but to limit the terminal time to 21:00 hours.

 

The Sub-Committee noted that the Applicant had engaged with the Environmental Health Service and that the Metropolitan Police Service were satisfied that the courtyard is enclosed, and people cannot leave that area easily as it is controlled therefore patrons will not be drinking on the streets.

The Sub-Committee noted the interested parties’ concerns in relation to dispersal and carefully considered their proposed conditions.

 

The Sub-Committee is aware that conditions must be appropriate for the promotion of the licensing objectives and that they must be tailored to the style of trade. The nature and wording of conditions in any case including this matter, rely on issues such as, but not limited to, the evidence, the quality and experience of the operators, the nature of the location, the style of operation, previous enforcement history and the nature and cumulative effect of other conditions on the Premises Licence.  Conditions vary from case to case and indeed, each case is determined on its own merits.

 

The condition proposed by the CGCA, was considered by the Sub-Committee but it did not consider the condition appropriate and proportionate for the following reasons:

(a)  The Applicant had proposed a detailed Operational Management Plan and Delivery and Serving Plan and whilst the interested parties had expressed concern about dispersal into the locale, the Sub-Committee considered the inherent benefits of the location alongside the applicant’s positive steps to manage patrons leaving would ensure that the licensing objectives were promoted;

(b)  By reducing the hours to core hours this would assist with dispersal, and with 500 people no longer leaving the premises in the early hours of the morning and the style of operation, this will assist with gradual dispersal;

(c)   The Applicant will appoint SIA Door Supervisors to control the flow of patrons.

The Sub-Committee noted that the enforcement of the condition proposed by the CGCA is dependent on:

(1)  The continued existence of the Operational Plan and there is no agreed condition compelling the operator to retain such a plan;

(2)  Definition of ‘relevant staff’ and when the training should take place;

(3)  The closure of any entrance will raise issues in relation to emergency escapes;

(4)  Enforcement Officer recognising or measuring the best endeavours of staff.

In light of the above, and the requirements under paragraph 1.16 of the Revised Home Office Guidance issued under section 182 of the Act, the Sub-Committee found that the condition was not precise enough and therefore unenforceable.

 

The Sub-Committee approved the proposed licensable activities and hours for the basement area as this area will only be used for private pre-booked functions or as an event space for circa 100 people. With the surrender of the Langley Premises licence and as this facility will be in the basement, the Sub-Committee was satisfied that an exception to policy had been met and would be appropriate in this case and with the proposed conditions the operation resulting reduction in the capacity and hours for the basement use the operation would not adversely impact the licensing objectives.

 

The Sub-Committee decided, after taking into account all the individual circumstances of this case and the promotion of the four licensing objectives:

 

1.     To grant permission for the Performance of Plays, Exhibition of Films, Live Music, Recorded Music, Performance of Dance (Indoors) (Basement Area hatched green on the plan) Monday to Thursday 10:00 to 23:30 hours Friday to Saturday 10:00 to 24:00 hours Sunday 12:00 to 22:30 hours.
