Objection:   We object on the basis that it will have a detrimental effect on the amenity of neighbouring residents.

Residential amenity will be negatively impacted through an increase in noise and disturbance caused by an extension in the hours of opening. The extended hours of opening will result in a longer period during which noise and vibrations are generated by the premises and patrons. Additionally, as a result of the application proposals, noise will be generated for an extended period into the night caused by staff clearing up tables, and carrying out noise-generating activities such as the disposal of glass bottles into bottle bins, thereby harming the amenity of neighboring residents.      JT:  08 January 2021
