Agenda and minutes

Councillor Julie Bird was appointed Chair.

No interests were declared.

Purpose.

The purpose of this report is for the committee to consider an objection notice given by a relevant person namely the Environmental Health Service and in respect of a Temporary Event Notice (TEN) received by the licensing authority under our reference (17/01509/LATENS).

 The committee is recommended to determine this matter.

Present

Mark Lewis, the applicant.

Richard Measey, Director of the Lodge.

Richard Maidment, Environmental Protection Officer and Nickii Humphreys, Licensing Manager were also in attendance.

DECISION

In the circumstances this committee chose not to serve a counter notice on this occasion.

Reasons

The committee heard the representations from the relevant person and considered the points raised by the applicant along with considering the application documentation.

The committee considered the Statutory Guidance with respect to this TEN application and the objection from Environmental Health, a responsible person.  The guidance is issued under section 182 of the Licensing Act 2003.

In addition to the above, the committee considered all relevant licensing objectives and considered the ap0plication upon its individual merit.

The committee having considered all matters and on this occasion was reasonably assured by the sensible assurances made out and offered by the applicant, the committee outlined for the purposes of accuracy the following:

·         It was clear that the organisers will be present at the proposed event (Mark and Richard) and will exercise appropriate control.

·         The committee accepted the assurance that live music will close at 11.30pm and that thereafter the DJ will move inside with outside music being background until 02.00. 

·         The committee was pleased that the level of noise (bass) can be independently controlled and set by the organisers and will be so controlled.

·         The committee would feel it is appropriate for the organisers to contact HMS Nelson ward room in advance to confirm the above event will occur and to perhaps add assurance as to appropriate monitoring occurring and contact numbers to be provided.
