Premises Licence Variation Application for Seaside Pizza and Kebab’s, Weymouth PDF 219 KB An application has been made for a variation of a premises licence at Seaside Pizza and Kebab’s, 113a Dorchester Road, Weymouth, DT4 7JY. The application has been advertised in accordance with the regulations and has attracted relevant representations. A Licensing Sub Committee must consider the application and representations at a public hearing. Additional documents:
Minutes: The Senior Licensing Officer introduced the report. The
application was to vary the premises licence to have late night refreshment
indoors and outdoors. Monday to Sunday 12 to 05.00 hours, supply of alcohol on
and off the premises Monday to Sunday 12 to 05.00 hours. Dorset Police had
submitted a representation as they were concerned about proposed opening and
delivery hours, the variety of alcohol to be sold and how it would be sold
along with late night refreshment and undermining the licensing objective of
the prevention of crime and disorder.
The conditions requested by Dorset Police were to ensure that the sale
of alcohol was linked to the sale of a takeaway for delivery, that strong
alcohol was not to be sold, no alcohol to be displayed in the premises, that
measures were taken to ensure that deliveries were to a verified residential or
business address and that one door supervisor after midnight at the premises.
The applicant agreed to most of the conditions suggested. But did not agree
with alcohol only being sold with a takeaway meal, door staff and the
restriction on the type of alcohol which could be sold. The Agent for the Applicant, Mr Watts presented his case to
the Sub-Committee. He informed that the Applicant was agreeable to a terminal
hour of 02:00 with deliveries to 03:00 hours. The Applicant had agreed not to
sell higher strength alcohol or more than four cans of beer, larger or cider.
But were concerned about selling half bottles of wine which were difficult to
source. He added that the premises would have a different clientele to venues
in the Town Centre and therefore would operate differently. He did not believe
that a person who had been drinking in town would walk to the premises to buy a
kebab. He made the committee aware that customers would mainly come from
Lodmoor Hill area and purchase a takeaway with some alcohol to have at home. He
stated that there would not be an issue with street drinking as alcohol could
only be purchased with food and no alcohol would be visible to the public
within the shop. Kirsty Gatehouse on behalf of Dorset Police addressed the Sub-Committee. She highlighted that the police were concerned about the type of alcohol that would be sold. She referenced anti-social behaviour issues concentrated around Weymouth Town Centre late at night. She recognised that the premises was outside the town and not in the cumulative impact zone, but it was not far from the town centre. Dorset Police wanted the premises to sell alcohol with a takeaway only by delivery to prevent street drinking, to stop people entering the takeaway and buying large amounts of alcohol. Similar conditions had been applied to comparable venues. To prevent alcohol being consumed on a bench or open space and instead delivered to a verified address. Delivery drivers would wear cameras and verify the sale of alcohol to ensure the customer was at a legal drinking age. She ... view the full minutes text for item 61. |
