Formal Written Representations from Planning Services
“The Diner”, 13 Farnham Road, Romford, RM3 8ED
Summary This written representation is submitted to object to the variation to the licence in connection with the property known as “The Diner”, located at 13 Farnham Road, Romford, RM3 8ED. This is raised in direct relevance to the licensing objection specific to the “Prevention of Public Nuisance”. Site description: The site is situated on the east side of Farnham Road, on the ground floor of a 4-storey building which has a parade of shops on the ground floor. The site is located in very close proximity to many residential homes, with 3-storey residential units in the form of flats located directly above the application site (which is the same along the parade of shops on the eastern side of Farnham Road), as well as residential dwelling houses located nearby in Newbury Gardens and Chippenham Road. Consideration for representation. A planning application was submitted under reference P1796.10 for the “Change of Use from Class A1 to Class A3 and installation of extract ducting to the rear.” This was granted on 23rd May 2011, and there were several conditions attached to the development, including:
2. The premises shall not be used and no deliveries shall be made other than between the hours of 08.00 hours and 22:00 hours on Mondays to Saturdays and between 09:00 and 17:00 hours on Sundays without the prior consent in writing of the Local Planning Authority.
There have been several planning applications since, but none have altered or changed the use of the property or have removed or changed the hours of operation. In granting this planning permission [P1796.10] for the use of the premises, consideration was given to the prevention of public nuisance; and most notably to the local residents located in close proximity. The application to vary the licence seeks to have the use operating outside of the times previously approved by planning; which have not been appealed against or challenged / changed since. As this is the case, planning would object to the application as it seeks to have use operating past these approved times until the late hour (being open until 24:30hrs on a Saturday night); and would be contrary to the licencing policy 007. This would increase the noise and activity in the late evening / night time (when there is a lower ambient noise level in the area) to a level that has not been prevalent to the distress of the local residents and to the general public, and is also deemed unacceptable and neighbourly; and contrary to Licencing policy 008. Furthermore, allowing alcohol to be served from 11:00hrs until 24:00hrs may increase the chance of persons under the influence loitering in the nearby areas, causing anti-social behaviour; which may be especially prevalent given the large pedestrianized areas; most notably along Hildene Avenue. The only way that the concerns of planning services would be alleviated would be to grant a conditional licence; limiting the opening hours to those stated in the planning condition above, and the model conditions set out under the licencing policy (Conditions PN1-PN23). It must also be noted that any unauthorised development or use is liable for enforcement action. There are also outstanding planning issues with regards to the discharge of conditions for application P1796.10; which will now be addressed by the planning enforcement team.
