Decision:
That the application for a Premises Licence in respect of Murphy's Roadhouse, 18 Esplanade Road, Paignton be granted as applied for and subject to the following conditions:
i) When the outside smoking area is used after midnight a SIA door steward shall be located in that area to ensure that patrons using the area do not behave in a manner which causes a nuisance to nearby residences; and
ii) A member of staff shall be designated to monitor the outside smoking area after midnight to ensure that any empty drinking vessels are cleared away promptly.
Reason for Decision:
Having carefully considered all the oral and written representations, Members resolved to grant the application having been satisfied that the Applicant’s presented as responsible Premises Licence Holders, who had demonstrated a prompt willingness to work with the Responsible Authorities to successfully resolve any issues that have arisen in the past.
Whilst Members noted that consumption of alcohol was not a licensable activity, they were mindful of their responsibility to ensure that the licensing objective ‘The Prevention of Public Nuisance’ was promoted where there was a potential causal link of nuisance to that activity. With that in mind and in carefully considering the representation of the Police, Members were satisfied that the two additional conditions would seek to alleviate the potential cause of such a nuisance.
Members were reassured that whilst they did not have sight of premises Noise Management Plan referred to, that one did exist and was suitable to these premises, as confirmed by the Public Protection Officer.
In concluding, Members noted that there were no representations of objections in respect of this application from any residents or any other Responsible Authority other than the Police.
