Reasons for the
decision
 
The application for a premises licence has
been approved, as members of the Licensing Sub-committee were
satisfied that the licensing objectives would not be
undermined.
 
The Sub-committee took into consideration that
the Responsible Authorities (the Environmental Protection Team, the
Environmental Enforcement Team, and the Metropolitan Police Service
("the Police") made representations on the grounds of crime and
disorder and prevention of public nuisance, however, they agreed
conditions in advance of the hearing and withdrew their
representations. The Sub-committee noted no local residents
objected to the application.
 
The Sub-committee took into consideration the
representations made by the Licensing Authority on the grounds of
crime and disorder, and the prevention of public nuisance in a
residential area. In addition the extension of licensable hours
beyond core hours contrary to Policy LP3 and the concerns about
dispersal from the premises taken altogether would undermine the
licensing objectives, and have an impact on the local
residents.
 
The Sub-committee took into account that the
Licensing Authority also maintained their objection on grounds of
policy, ongoing planning issues  where
planning permission was required by the premises contrary to Policy
LP5 for change of use of the ground floor from sui generis
(workspace and auxiliary café) to sui generis (workspace and
auxiliary drinking establishment (A4)) with additional outdoor
seating spaces.
 
 
 
The Sub-committee felt that the premises had
operated a number of Temporary Events and there were no crime and
disorder issues arising from those events. The Sub-committee noted
that the premises is a small venue. It was noted that the outdoor
area and garden would be closed from 22:00. The Sub-committee took
into consideration that the Applicant had carried out soundproofing
works to the premises. The Sub-committee noted that the
Environmental Protection Team had set the noise limiter at the
premises.
 
The Sub-committee carefully considered the
evidence presented to them, and took into consideration the
measures that the Applicant had put in place. The Applicant agreed
to have SIA door security until 30 minutes after closing to ensure
dispersal is carried out safely. The Sub-committee felt reassured
that the off-sales would cease at 23:00 hours and the alcohol to be
sold in sealed containers. The Applicant also agreed to hold
liaison meetings at less twice a year to address any concerns local
residents may have.
 
Having taken all of the above factors into
consideration the Sub-committee was satisfied that by granting this
premises licence that the licensing objectives would not be
undermined.
