Many residents have contacted your local councillors to ask what is the process for making an objection following the application to set up an off license at the fireplace shop on Oakfield Road, Whickham. The objection should be made on a form which can be obtained from: Trading Standards and Licensing, Development and Enterprise, Gateshead Council, Civic Centre, Regent Street, Gateshead, NE8 1HH.
All objections must be based on some or all of the following grounds which are listed in the form:
The prevention of crime an disorder
Public safety
The prevention of public nuisance
The protection of children from harm
The last date that objections will be received for this particular application is Tuesday 19th September.
Normally, residents who object will have an opportunity to speak at the hearing should they wish to. However, this depends the number of people who wish to speak. A provisional date for the hearing has been set for he morning of Thursday 12th October, although of course this may change.
