Summary

The North York Council's statutory licensing subcommittee convened to review an application by Jeremy Verity for a variation of a premises license for La Faria. The application sought to extend the use of external areas for dining and drinking until 11:00 PM from April to September.

Decision: Approval of License Variation The committee approved the application to extend the operational hours of La Faria's external areas. Arguments in favor highlighted the absence of complaints during past events under temporary licenses and the applicant's commitment to community harmony. Opposition from local residents centered on potential noise and public nuisance. The approval aligns La Faria with nearby establishments, potentially boosting its business without a history of related disturbances.

Additional Information: The meeting was marked by a thorough review of past incidents and compliance, with detailed presentations from both the council's representative and the applicant. Notably, the absence of opposing residents at the meeting left some questions unanswered directly, relying instead on written submissions. The decision reflects a balance between business interests and community standards.
