Application to Vary a Premises Licence PDF 29 KB For Members to consider and determine an
application to vary a premises licence Additional documents:
Decision: That the licence be granted in accordance with the details above. Minutes: The Community Protection Manager introduced the report which was for a request to vary the Premises Licence of the Albion Hotel, Church Street, Connah’s Quay.
There had been a Premises Licence in force at the Albion Hotel since the Licensing Act 2003 took effect in 2005. However, in recent months the business had not been operating but the Premises Licence remained in place as long as the required annual fee was paid to the Licensing Authority.
On 16 April 2014 an application was made to transfer the Premises Licence to Saxon Leisure (NW) Ltd from the previous holder. On the same date an application was also made to vary the Premises Licence from the existing activities as follows:
Existing Activities Live music; recorded music; facilities for making music; facilities for dancing; facilities for entertainment of a similar description: Monday – Saturday 7.00pm to midnight Sunday 7.00pm to 11.00pm
Supply of alcohol: Monday – Saturday 11.00am to 11.00pm Sunday Noon to 10.30pm Good Friday Noon to 10.30pm Christmas Day Noon to 3.00pm and 7.00pm to 10.30pm New Year’s Eve 11.00am to Midnight New Year’s Day Midnight to 11.00pm
Proposed Activities Provision of films; indoor sporting events; boxing or wrestling entertainments; live music; recorded music; dance; entertainment of a similar description to music and dance: Monday – Sunday 10.00am to 2.00am the following morning
Late Night Refreshment: Monday – Sunday 11.00pm to 2.00am the following morning
Supply of Alcohol: Monday – Sunday 10.00am to 2.00am the following morning
Opening Hours: Monday to Sunday 10.00am to 2.00am the following morning
Adult Entertainment: None
Operating Schedule – nothing additional was included in the application.
Representations had been received from eight local residents, details of which were included in the appendix to the report. In addition, a petition of 180 signatures had also been submitted however petitions were not regarded as relevant representations in the context of the Licensing Act as there was insufficient detail of individual resident’s views.
North Wales Police had made representations which were also detailed in the appendix to the report, as was subsequent email correspondence between the applicant and the Police and a location plan of the premises.
The agreed position between the Police and the applicant on activities, days and hours operation was as follows:
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday – times as on the existing licence as referred to above.
Friday and Saturday – hours of 10.00am to 2.00am the following morning with no customers to be admitted after midnight. Also, that North Wales Police be notified within a reasonable time of any boxing, wrestling or cage fighting events to be held at the premised and for such events to finish at midnight.
