Application for New Premises Licence - Flawd, Unit 3 Mansion House, New Islington, Manchester, M4 6HF

The report of the Director of Planning Building Control and Licensing is enclosed

Minutes:

Consideration was given to a report of the Director of Planning, Building Control and Licensing regarding a New Premises Licence.

 

The Hearing Panel considered the written papers, oral representations of all parties as well as the relevant legislation and guidance.

 

The applicant’s agent addressed the Hearing Panel and stated that the premises would be located in the ground floor commercial space of the building and that the applicant was an experienced operator. The agent explained that this was a small venue for 30 patrons and that the weekend hours requested were less than was required of them in accordance with the Special Policy in effect in Ancoats and New Islington. The agent confirmed that there were no objections from responsible authorities and that four residents had objected, three had been contacted and two had subsequently settled on agreements with the applicant. Of the two remaining objectors one did not reply and the other remained concerned about smokers and the hours applied for in the application.

 

In their deliberations, the Hearing Panel felt that this was a responsible operator and had no concerns in granting the application.

 

Decision

 

To grant the licence subject to agreed conditions.
