Planning Rules

They have submitted their planning application on the basis that it is permitted development.  Our belief is the intent of the original planning was to allow a restaurant type operation not a live music venue and therefore should not be included within the current permission.

The planning Application is very short on detail which does not allow the full impact of the application to be assessed correctly.  Examples include that in their licence application they state the doors will remain closed.  Hence they will need Air conditioning units, where will these be placed on the exterior?  Residents are not allowed to install External AC Units.  The same Arguments follow for the cellar cooling equipment.  Where will the exterior units be located?  Both types of units will be running 24/7 in the heart of a residential areas with nothing to block or ameliorate the noise.

Tenants are specifically restricted by their leases to limit exterior noise and are prohibited from having amplified units in gardens and communial spaces including the park.  Yet the planning application is for a Live music venue within 2 meters of the park with four sets of opening double doors which will off course be closed at all times.
