Minutes:

The Committee carefully considered the application and the representations of the objectors both written and oral.  The Committee noted that the premises was located in a largely industrial area.  The Committee accepted the representations of the objectors that their businesses had been negatively affected by Anti Social Behaviour and Crime in the area however there was no evidence that this was in any way connected to the operation of the premises and there was also no evidence that there would be an increase in these behaviours if a licence was granted.   

 

The Committee noted that the applicant was an experienced and responsible operator and intends to liaise with GMP regarding any concerns GMP has in relation to match days and would cooperate with any request by GMP to limit sales in the event of high risk matches.  The Committee expect the operator to manage the premises responsibly in order to service their customers needs without allowing the premises to become a destination for bulk alcohol sales. 

 

Overall the Committee considered that if the premises is managed robustly on the terms granted the Licensing Objectives should not be undermined.  The applicant and the objectors are all aware that the licence can in the future be reviewed if it's operation does undermine the Licensing Objectives. 

 

Decision

 

To grant the application as applied for with condiitons as set out in the operating schedule and those agreed between the applicant and LOOH.
