Change of use of land to rear of public house and retention of marquee (revised scheme)

Oliver’s Pub and Kitchen, 20 Nottingham Road, Eastwood, NG16 3NQ

The application is brought to the Committee at request of Councillor D Bagshaw.

The Committee paid due regard to the late items, including a number of issues raised by residents.

Kane Oliver, the applicant and Ian Ward, objecting made representation to the Committee prior to the general debate.  A statement was read on behalf of Councillor K Woodhead, Ward Member.

The Committee, having noted the information provided to it, debated the item.  Consideration was given to the proximity of the development to neighbours and the materials and appearance of the marquee.  It was noted that if the marquee was taken down, the pub could still put tables and chairs outside and that could create more noise. There was a discussion about the temporary nature of the structure and the permanency of the permission. 

          RESOLVED that planning permission be granted, subject to conditions.

RESOLVED that the conditions include the limitation of the number of events to twenty a year, with a curfew of 11pm and the precise wording of the permission and conditions delegated to the Vice Chair of Planning Committee, the Chair of Planning Committee and the Head of Planning and Economic Development.
