The legal advisor to the Committee informed Members this item had been withdrawn from the agenda and that a report would be prepared for consideration at the next meeting of the Licensing Committee.

The Licensing Committee considered the report of the Executive Director Place proposing the designation of one site in the Borough as a ‘licence street' for street trading under the provisions of the London Local Authorities Act 1990 (as amended) and, if the designation were agreed, to consider the granting of a street trading licence at those sites.

Members were reminded that at its meeting on 4 March 2015, the Licensing Committee resolved to adjourn consideration of the application for a street designation at 960 Brighton Road, Purley CR8 2LP to give the applicant time to address the concerns of the Committee.

The applicant was present for the application to assist Members of the Committee with any queries.

The Members of the Committee considered the application and thanked the applicant for addressing its previous concerns in the revised application:

RESOLVED: that the site on the footway outside 960 Brighton Road, Purley CR8 2LP be designated for the purposes of street trading, as set out in Appendix A, and that a street trading licence be granted with the Council's standard conditions.

The Committee is asked to determine whether:

to make the variation to the Sex Establishment Licence as applied for or to make such variation to the Sex Establishment Licence as they think fit or to refuse the application for a variation to the Sex Establishment Licence.

The Licensing Committee considered the report of the Executive Director Place concerning an application to vary the Sex Establishment (Sex Shop) License at Private Shop, 20c Selsdon Road, South Croydon CR2 6PA.

The applicant was present for the application to assist Members of the Committee with any queries.

The Applicant amended the application to remove the door graphic and wording (‘+18 years only' shield) and the small window graphic (‘Be who you want to be' shield) as shown in the proposed images attached to the report at Appendix 2.

Members of the Committee accepted these amendments.

Councillor Sue Bennett arrived 7:34pm during the consideration of this item and took no part in questioning or discussions relating to it and did not vote on the matter.

The Committee RESOLVED to grant the application to vary the Sex Establishment (Sex Shop) License at Private Shop, 20c Selsdon Road, South Croydon CR2 6PA to enable amendments to the external appearance of the premises by placing window wording (‘your intimate lifestyle') and window graphic and wording (‘Private Shop the adult store you can trust') to the main window and that both signs be applied in the proportions shown in the ‘mock up' photograph of the front of the premises shown at Appendix 2 and agreed that authority to approve the final design and size of the window graphics be delegated to the Licensing Manager in consultation with the Chair of the Licensing Committee.

Councillors Matthew Kyeremeh and David Wood abstained from voting on this item.

Members asked the Licensing Manager to ensure that when applications of this nature are brought to the Committee for consideration in the future, that scaled drawings of the designs be presented so that Members can more easily assess the potential impact of the designs.
