Council verdict on controversial plan to turn newsagent shop into a bar:
The council's planning department received 10 letters of objection. Reasons included the residential area being an"inappropriate location" for a bar. The locals raised concerns over its impact on the character of the area, increased litter, increased noise and disturbance, increased crime and anti-social behaviour, loss of privacy and its effect on already existing parking and traffic issues.
A report by planning officers said it was felt nearby homes"would be subjected to undue noise levels arising from the proposed drinking establishment." A noise impact assessment document submitted with the application was considered to be inadequate. The applicant had therefore"failed to provide sufficient detail about the potential impact upon the neighbouring properties in terms of noise and how this would be mitigated.
The report went on:"The area along Broadway is generally quiet. To introduce another licensed premises at this location, used purely as a drinking establishment, would result in an adverse impact on the amenity currently enjoyed by locals. "The area is mainly residential and there are houses in close proximity to the property. For these reasons, the location is considered unsuitable for this type of premises."
