Minutes: The Board heard from Mr Alexander Munro, legal advisor, that objections to the application had been received by Police Scotland, NHS Grampian and the City Centre Community Council, Mr Munro advised the Licensing Standards Officer had withdrawn their representation.
Thereafter the Board heard from Jack Cummings, agent for the applicant who appeared alongside Lauren McCarroll, manager of the premises. Mr Cummings advised that the issue appeared to be that the variation would result in the premises operating for more than 14 hours. He accepted the views given by the objectors and advised that they would be happy to amend their application to the effect that the commencement hour Thursday to Sunday would be 12 noon (from the proposed 11am) which would then take them under 14 hours. The Board then heard from Sergeant Gill Flett who advised they would be happy to withdraw their letter on the basis of the amended commencement hour.
The Board then heard from Heather Wilson, NHS Grampian, who also advised they would withdraw their letter in light of the amendment.
The Community Council representative confirmed that the amendment suggested taking the premises under 14 hours would be enough and they would therefore withdraw their objection on that basis too.
The Board resolved:
To grant the amended application.
