Decision:

That the application for a Variation to a Premises Licence in respect of McDonalds Restaurant, Yalberton Road, Paignton be granted as applied for, subject to the following additional condition:

That the Premises Licence Holder shall take all reasonable steps to engage with the delivery company to find a product or an approved measure which will limit noise disturbance to nearby residents when deliveries take place at the Premises..

Reason for Decision

Having carefully considered all the oral and written Representations, Members resolved to grant the licence but with some reservation, as it appeared to them that the restrictive condition in respect of deliveries was not being adhered to and from the oral Representation of the Interested Party present, this appeared to be the main cause for concern

In respect of the application itself, Members were reassured that having explored this concern with both parties during the hearing, that set out in the written Representations and being satisfied that not all concerns were attributable to these Premises, that the granting of this application would not seek to undermine the Licensing Objectives.

Members were also reassured that by the 24 hour opening times of the premises, members of the public would enter the premises and in turn, would reduce the noise in the car park area.

Members noted that there were no Representations from any of the Responsible Authorities and from the oral submission given by the Applicant’s representative who read from correspondence between Devon and Cornwall Constabulary and the Applicant, they had no issues of concern regarding these Premises.

In respect of the litter, Members noted from the written and oral Representations that this issue has been addressed and continues to be monitored by the Applicant.

Should issues arise as a result of this grant, then a Review of the Premises Licence can be sought by the Interested Parties.
