Annex 2 - Conditions consistent with the Operating Schedule
Embedded restrictions:
Alcohol shall not be sold or supplied except during permitted hours.
In this condition, permitted hours includes:
On New Year’s Eve from the end of permitted hours on New Year’s Eve to the start of permitted hours on the following day (or, if there are no permitted hours on the following day, midnight on 31 December).
Operating schedule conditions:
1. The Designated Premises Supervisor shall be a member of the Pontefract Pubwatch Scheme so long as it so exists.
2. The CCTV camera's are to be maintained regularly and kept in good working order.
3. The emergency lighting system will be maintained regularly and kept in good working order.
4. Persons appearing to be under 18 years of age attempting to purchase alcohl will be required to provide proof of age.
5. Noise from amplified and non-amplified music, singing and speech arising from regulated entertainment at the premises between the hours of 23:00 and 07:00 shall not be audible inside habitable rooms of noise sensitive properties in the vicinity.
Informative Note:
Licensees are advised to carry out a simple “sound check” outside the nearest noise sensitive property by listening to the music etc. coming from regulated entertainment. If the music etc. is clearly audible then it is likely that this condition is being breached. Steps should then be taken to reduce the volume of the noise.
For the purpose of providing an objective standard to assess whether this condition is being complied with or not, noise shall be considered not to be audible if:
) the measurement of sound when music etc is on (expressed as LAeq, 1min) does not exceed the measurement of sound (expressed as LA90, 5min) when the music is off, and
) the measurement of sound in each 1/3rd octave band between 40Hz and 160 Hz when music is on (expressed as L10, 1min) does not exceed the measurement of sound in the same 1/3rd octave bands between 40Hz and 160Hz when the music is off (expressed as L90, 5min)
All measurements to be taken within the habitable room normally occupied at the time in question, using a Type 1 integrating-averaging sound level meter compliant with BS EN 60804, with either windows open for normal ventilation or closed, whichever situation causes greater noise disturbance.
6. Speakers used to relay amplified music, singing and speech provided as part of the regulated entertainment shall not be positioned outside the premises, nor internally, but directing out through external doors, windows and similar openings to the premises.
ADVISORY NOTE:
You can help facilitate patrons leaving in a quiet manner through promoting a ‘calm down’ period at the end of the night. Finish any “lively” entertainment (disco, live music, etc) about 30 minutes before the bar closes and play softer background music. Continue to sell water, soft drinks and other non-alcoholic beverages and allow customers to leave naturally.
7. Promotional leaflets (flyers) shall not be distributed to the public outside the premises (whether immediately outside or some distance away) except with the prior written approval of the Licensing Authority, and under the terms of a litter control plan approved by the Responsible Authority for Public Nuisance (Wakefield MDC’s Environmental Protection Team).
8. The Fire Alarm and Emergency Lighting Systems are to be tested weekly and a written record of these tests is to be kept. Any faults identified and the relevant action taken to rectify them are to be noted in the record.
9. Where the premises seeks to be open for licensable activities outside normal licensed operating hours to show recognised international events (for up to 20 events) at least 14 working days' written notice must be given to the police and the Licensing Authority. The event will not proceed if the police serve written notice of objection upon the designated premises supervisor 7 days prior to the event. Notification by the applicant shall include the intended opening times, the event to be shown and the measures which will be implemented to promote the licensing objectives.
