work with different organisations, the applicant’s experience, the capacity of
the premises, fire and food regulations, risk assessment of the building,
disabled facilities, ventilation for the barn, whether he would agree to the
Challenge 25 policy (rather than Challenge 21) and how the applicant planned to
liaise with residents and the community. The applicant informed the committee that due to naivety and
in-experience in this area, he had not met with the Parish Council and other
organisations. He ran a tap house for 3 months during lockdown., The premises
when constructed has the capacity for 50-60 people and there will be disabled
toilets and potentially a lowered bar area. The barn would be used mainly as a
tap house and as an office. The importance of engaging with the community was
highlighted by councillors and the applicant assured that he would contact
residents and the community when events were planned to be held and provide a
contact number. The representation from the Parish Council expressed
concerns about noise and light pollution, outside seating, the close proximity
of residents, music outside and antisocial behaviour. Mr Gentt also addressed the Committee and had similar
concerns to the Parish Council. All parties were given the opportunity to sum up their cases prior to the sub-committee adjourning to make their decision. |

New Premises Licence Application for Pageant Gardens, Sherborne PDF 185 KB To consider a new premises licence for Pageant Gardens, Sherborne. Additional documents:
Minutes: The Senior Licensing Officer introduced the report for a new premises application for Pageant Gardens. For regulated entertainment outdoors, plays, films, live and recorded music and performance and dance and anything of a similar description between the hours of 09.00 to 23.00 hours. The sales of alcohol are on the premises, Monday to Sunday, 10.00 to 23.00 hours. Dorset Police requested conditions to be added to the licence if it is to be granted and the applicant has agreed to all conditions. The committee was informed that the premises area had applied for Temporary Event Notices (TEN) in the past and had not received any concerns, comments, or objections from residents. Steve Shield, Town Clerk on behalf of Sherborne Town Council, presented his case. Both Dorset Police and Fire Service supported the newly proposed license application with some conditions. This included the town council agreement to restrict all alcohol sales to 22.00 instead of 23.00. All other organisations would continue to apply separate for a TENS licence in relation to alcohol. The committee was made aware that a new premises licence would give the town council the ability to accommodate a number of events taken place during the daytime and the evening such as, Sherborne Monthly Markets and Sherborne Town Band. There are a permitted number of TENS licences that can be allocated to the location each year and a new licence would reduce administration time for the town council and Dorset Council. The town council stated that it is mindful of its neighbouring residents and businesses and will ensure communication and notification is provided across the town. Cllrs asked questions regarding the sale and control of alcohol. The Town clerk responded to questions from Cllrs by adding that alcohol will be tightly controlled and risk assessments, appropriate documentation and legislation will be in place. All parties were given the opportunity to sum up their cases prior to the sub-committee adjourning to make their decision. |
