Announcement of decision Minutes: The Sub-Committee have taken note of all the written concerns raised in respect of The Grand Post House, 62-70 Lichfield Street, Wolverhampton. They have also listened to the arguments of those who have spoken at the hearing.
Having considered the views of all concerned, the Sub-Committee are satisfied that the Cumulative Impact Policy applied to these premises. They are further satisfied that sufficient evidence has been provided by the applicant to illustrate that the premises will not add to the cumulative impact already experienced and that the presumption of non-grant has been rebutted.
The application for a premises licence is therefore granted as applied for, but subject to conditions agreed between the applicant and responsible authorities as follows:
