5.4 Address by interested parties
5.4.1 Objectors
We heard from the Environmental Health Officer who had submitted objections on the grounds of Public Nuisance, specifically noise nuisance to the surrounding residential area and wanting clarification on how often events would be held however, discussions before the meeting had served to remove these concerns. The Environmental Health Officer stated that it had been agreed that live music would be limited to 15 events per calendar year and it was proposed that this be added as a condition or that a TENS should be applied for. The Environmental Health Officer also stated that the wording of the application in regards to the supply and consumption of alcohol in hotel rooms was not sufficiently clear and so a condition could be applied to ensure compliance.
