STAFF RECOMMENDATION

 

 

That the application from Mayfair Lakes Management Corporation, doing business as Mayfair Lakes Golf Course, for an amendment to add a patron participation endorsement under Food Primary Licence No.129629, in order to offer entertainment in the form of live bands and recorded music for dancing, be supported and that a letter be sent to the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch advising that:

 

 

(1)

Council supports the amendment of an endorsement for patron participation as the issuance will not pose a significant impact on the community;

 

 

(2)

Council comments on the prescribed criteria (set out in Section 53 of the Liquor Control and Licensing Regulations) are as follows:

 

 

 

(a)

The potential for additional noise and traffic in the area was considered;

 

 

 

(b)

The impact on the community was assessed through a community consultation process;

 

 

 

(c)

Given that there has been no history of non-compliance with the operation, the amendment to permit patron participation under the Food Primary Licence should not change the establishment so that it is operated in a manner that is contrary to its primary purpose as a golf course and food and beverage establishment;

 

 

(3)

As the operation of a licenced establishment may affect nearby residents the City gathered the view of residents as follows:

 

 

 

(a)

Property owners and businesses within a 50 metre radius of the subject property were contacted by letter detailing the application and provided instructions on how community comments or concerns could be submitted;

 

 

 

(b)

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

 

 

(4)

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

 

 

 

(a)

That based on the number of letters sent and the lack of response received from all public notifications, Council considers that the amendment is acceptable to the majority of the residents in the area and the community.
