136 Broadway, Leigh-on-Sea, SS9 1AA - Application for the Grant of Premises Licence PDF 130 KB Minutes: The sub-committee received a report of the Deputy Chief Executive (Place) concerning an application by Navana Ltd for the grant of a Premises Licence in respect of Navana, 136 Broadway, Leigh-on-Sea, SS9 1AA.
The application was presented by the applicant’s solicitor, Mr J Wallsgrove. Mr H Fenner, attended on behalf of the applicants.
The sub-committee noted that no letters of objection to this application had been received from any of the Responsible Authorities although measures had been agreed between the applicant and Essex Police, the Licensing Authority and the Council’s Environmental Protection Team should the application be granted. These were set out in Appendix 3 to the report of the Deputy Chief Executive (Place).
Representations had however, been received from fifty local residents and Leigh Town Council. One of the objections was withdrawn prior to the hearing. Four of those residents, namely Ms Boughtwood, Ms Galgey, Mr Thomason and Ms Upton attended the hearing and gave evidence.
The residents’ concerns related to all four of the licensing objectives and, in particular, noise nuisance as the premises was located in a residential area with residential flats above the premises.
The sub-committee listened to all the evidence and submissions, and read all the documents. It had regard to the Statutory Guidance Notes and Southend-on-Sea Borough Council’s Statement of Licensing Policy. The sub-committee further considered the four licensing objectives namely the prevention of crime and disorder, public safety, the prevention of public nuisance and the protection of children from harm.
On the basis of the evidence presented to it, the Sub-Committee considered that the licensing objectives and the objectors concerns would be adequately addressed by the conditions imposed on the licence. The sub-committee therefore:
Resolved:-
The application be granted subject to:
(i) The Mandatory Conditions set out in Appendix 1 to the report of the Deputy Chief Executive (Place);
(ii) The conditions set out in Appendix 2 to the report of the Deputy Chief Executive (Place), subject to the following amendment to condition 5 to now read:
“5. No use shall be made of the external bottle bins or bottle banks between 21.00 and 08.00 the following day.”
(iii) The conditions set out in Appendix 3 to the report to the Deputy Chief Executive (Place) agreed between the applicant and the Essex Police, the Licensing Authority and the Council’s Environmental Protection Team. |
