GENERAL PURPOSES COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION

That the application by Plaza Premium Lounge Ltd., doing business as Distinguished Visitor Lounge, for a Liquor Primary Licence at 3211 Grant McConachie Way, in order to offer full liquor service be supported and that a letter be sent to the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch advising that:

(1)

Council recommends the issuance of the proposed licence based on the lack of community responses received and that the operation will not have a significant negative       impact on the community;

(2)

Council’s comments on the prescribed criteria (set out in Section 10(3) of the Liquor        Control and Licencing Act Regulations) are as follows;

(a)

the location of the establishment is zoned Airport District and since the property is under Federal jurisdiction, the City does not review or comment on business uses for zoning purposes;

(b)

the proximity of the proposed location to other social or recreational and public buildings was considered.  There are no public schools or parks within a 50 meter radius of the proposed liquor primary location;

(c)

that a LCLB application for a 59 person capacity operation with liquor service hours of 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. was considered;

(d)

the number and market focus or clientele of liquor primary licence establishments within a reasonable distance of the proposed location was considered;

(e)

the potential for additional noise in the area if the application is approved was considered;

(3)

as the operation of the establishment as a liquor licensed establishment might affect      nearby residents the City gathered the views of the residents as follows:

(a)

a letter was sent to the Vice President of Community & Environmental Affairs at YVR requesting that a letter of notice of a new liquor primary licence establishment be circulated to other business operations at YVR;

(b)

signage was also posted at the subject property and three public notices were published in a local newspaper.  This signage and notice provided information on the application and instruction on how community comments or concerns could be submitted;

(4)

Council’s comments and recommendations respecting the views of the resident’s are as follows:

(a)

there were no responses to all the public notifications and based on the lack of        any responses received from the community, Council considers that the       application is acceptable to the majority of the community, residents and businesses in the nearby area.
