Old Trespass , licensing issues
I saw previous comments, and have been to take photos of the Notice of aplication for the grant of a Premises Licence under Section 17 of the Licensing Act 2003.Chik'n Ltd (Trespass site) says the proposed licensable activities and hours are:- Sale of alcohol on and off the premises from 10.00 - 23.30 Sun- Thurs and from 10.00 - 00.00 Fri and Sat.- Late night refreshment indoors and outdoors from 23.00-00.00 Sun to Thurs and 23.00 - 00.30 Fri and Sat- opening hours 10.00 - 00.00 Sun to Thur and 10.00 - 00.30 Fri and SatLooking at their website for their other restaurants, it does look more takeaway, with chikn wraps, chikn burgers, chikn tenders, Korean rice box, milkshakes, craft beer. No mention of other alcohol. I know residents have previously written about other venues asking that the sale of food be a condition for buying alcohol. I would probably do the same this time, so people can't just stop by for a beer, or buy one to take away, without having to buy food. THe signs unfortunately don't give us an email address, Instead it says any representations regarding the application must be received IN WRITING by Safety and Licensing Department, Regulatory Services Partnership (Wandsworth), Merton Civic Centre, London Road, Morden, SM4 5DX no later that 20 April 2022, stating the grounds for representation. There is a similar sign up in the old Subway, for Thunderbird chicken, but the date for that was 22 March. I think the new government guidance about change of use of property means there doesn't need to be a buildings application, although there must be something that explains to the council what alterations will be done on site to ensure it complies with all the regulations that restaurants need to fulfil. I personally would suggest people write with their concerns. If no one does, then nothing will happen, and it'll all go through. Unless someone can find an email address?
