Decision details

Change of use to convert garage and rear garden to be used as part of public house

Roots Micro Bar, 17 Nottingham Road, Kimberley, Nottinghamshire, NG16 2NB

This application had been brought to the Committee for consideration at the request of Councillor P J Owen.

There were no late items for the Committee to consider in conjunction with the application.

Mrs Tonia Bailey – Turner, objecting and Councillor M J Crow, Ward Member, addressed the meeting prior to the general debate.

Consideration was given to the impact a small increase to the size of the existing public house would have on traffic and neighbour amenity.  There was a discussion about car parking, noise and the need for a site visit.  It was noted that the public house was small and the additional outside space would not represent an impact greater than a neighbour having a gathering in their garden.

It was proposed by Councillor P J Owen and seconded by Councillor D K Watts that the item be deferred to allow a site visit to take place.  On being put to the meeting the motion fell.
