COUNCIL SEEKS VIEWS ON LICENSING Sheffield City Council is inviting the city’s residents, community groups, businesses, licensees and other agencies to have their say on licensing in the city. They are being asked to comment on a revised licensing policy for Sheffield, which has recently been reviewed to offer more information and guidance not only to applicants
for licences, but also residents and businesses. The consultation runs to August 9 2010. After the consultation the policy will be revised to take into account the comments received, and the final version will be agreed by the Council. Chief Licensing Officer, Steve Lonnia, explains: “The policy must be reviewed every three years in accordance with the
law. Although the policy has worked well we wanted to give much more information and guidance to everyone who uses it so that they find it helpful and easy to use.” The Chair of Licensing, Cllr Clive Skelton, said “We want to hear the views of everyone. Having a good policy in place will help us ensure that we have a city that people want to
live, work and visit on a regular basis and where they are safe to enjoy their leisure time. Please let us have your comments.” Paul Thompson, Assistant Manager of the Frog and Parrott pub who was crowned Sheffield’s first winner of the Best Bar None awards in January, said: “The revised policy should help everyone ensure that Sheffield is the place to visit and
that we continue to offer safe and well-managed licensed premises for everyone to enjoy.” Comments on the policy from residents, community groups and businesses are welcome. You can see the policy on the Council’s website at www. sheffield.gov.uk/ policyconsultation. A hard copy of the policy can be obtained by contacting the
Licensing General Section on 0114 203 7752. You can email your comments to general.licensing@ sheffield.gov.uk or, alternatively, write to “Licensing Consultation”, Licensing General Section, Sheffield City Council, Town Hall, Pinstone Street, Sheffield, S1 2HH. All comments need to be received before 5pm on August 9 2010.
