RESOLVED to grant the application as they did not feel that the granting of the licence would undermine the licensing objectives.
Present: Applicant: Colin Rossiter Sue Parsons The Application An application for the grant of a Premises Licence had been received from St Catherine’s Church in respect of St Catherine’s Church Hall, Kings Road, Canton, Cardiff, CF1 9DE. The applicant had applied for the following: (1) In respect of the following licensable activities: (i) The sale of alcohol for consumption on the premises. (ii) The provision of regulated entertainment in the form of recorded music (indoors). (2) Description of Premises (as stated by applicant): “The church hall is a traditional tin tabernacle bult in the 19th century sited in secured church grounds next to the church. The hall has a main large room with a smaller back room plus two toilets, full fitted kitchen and storage space. It has regular fire and electrical safety checks in accordance with public building regulations and is well maintained. It is used partly as a community venue and hired to various members of the public for children’s parties, wedding receptions and evening events which includes discos. This helps provide income for our church. The capacity we generally allow is 100 people”. (3) Unless otherwise indicated the premises may be open to the public during the following hours and for any hours consequential to the non-standard timings: Wednesday to Sunday: 14:00 to 23:30 hours (4) To provide licensable activities during the following hours: (i) The sale of alcohol for consumption on the premises: Wednesday to Sunday: 14:00 to 23:30 hours (iii) The provision of regulated entertainment in the form of recorded music (indoors): Thursday to Sunday: 14:00 to 23:30 hours It was noted by the Sub-Committee that there were no objections from either South Wales Police or Environmental Health / Pollution Control. Applicant Representations Addressing the Sub Committee, Colin Rossiter explained that he had been a member of the church for a number of years and was also involved in utilising the church hall for fundraising for the church. Currently, the church hall was used for a number of different events, including Brownies, Guides, yoga, dog training and birthday parties. For many years there had been a monthly ‘suburban’ disco on a Saturday night, running for 8 or 9 years with approximately 80 to 90 people attending. There had been no issues and no complaints during this time. It was a wooden building, so they were mindful of nearby residents and the noise. It was not their intention to upset the neighbours. The ‘suburban’ disco took up a considerable proportion of the temporary event notice allocation, and they used two themselves each year. It was for this reason that they were applying for a licence, so they were no longer required to apply for temporary event notices. Granting the application would not mean that there was necessarily an increase in events, but it did mean they would be able to agree to some other events taking place, for example wedding receptions. They did not intend to become a wedding reception venue, and it was a community facility. Mr Rossiter addressed the concerns raised by the objector, confirming that it was not normal for the church hall to be used on a Sunday afternoon. On this particular occasion it was booked from 5pm to 10pm, and expected to finish about 9pm. It was a children’s party on a fine evening in September and the children were outside. Whether or not they had a licence at that time would not have made any difference as it was not related to alcohol. He noted that there was a strict rule on Friday and Saturday nights, where everyone had to be out by midnight, with music turned off by 11:30pm. The Sub Committee queried the potential increase in events. Mr Rossiter advised that there were three or four events already booked for next year. Together with the ‘suburban’ discos and the allocation of temporary event notices, that was 15 per year. Mr Rossiter explained that the hall was attractive to people, as recently a grant had been received from Welsh government and the Church’s Council which was used to update the facilities. The cost of keeping the church itself running was in the region of £1,000 a week and the money made by using the church hall helped towards those costs in the amount of approximately £20,000 per year. Decision The Sub Committee considered the application on its individual merits and considered all the committee papers, the statutory guidance made under section 182 of the Licensing Act 2003, and the Council’s Statement of Licensing Policy, together with oral representations made by the applicant and the written objection from a nearby resident, noting however that the objection did not relate to licensable activity and parking issues were outside the remit of the Sub Committee. The Sub Committee RESOLVED to grant the application as they did not feel that the granting of the licence would undermine the licensing objectives.
