With reference to article 3 of appendix A of the minute of the meeting of the Licensing Committee of 17 March 2015, the Sub Committee had before it (a) a letter from Mr Mckane, Enforcement Officer, dated 5 March 2015, which advised and presented photographic evidence to confirm, that the statutory notice in respect of this application had not been displayed in accordance with the requirements of Paragraph 2(2) of Schedule 1 of the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982; and (b) a letter of objection.

The Sub Committee was advised that it firstly had to determine whether the statutory notice had been displayed in accordance with the requirements of Paragraph 2(2) of Schedule 1 of the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982.

The applicant was in attendance and spoke in support of his application during the course of which he explained the rationale for the location of the site notice and why he believed this met the statutory requirements.

The Sub Committee resolved:-

(i)         to agree that the statutory notice had not been displayed in accordance with the requirements of Paragraph 2(2) of Schedule 1 of the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982 and therefore to refuse the application, and

(ii)        to agree to waive the application fee should the applicant re-apply and to advise the applicant that should the application be resubmitted within one year that the Licensing Committee would consider whether a material change had occurred and whether to consider the application at that time.
