Decision: Granting of Shadow License The application sought a shadow license for various licensable activities including the sale of alcohol and late night refreshments. Proponents argued it was a precautionary measure to ensure business continuity. Objectors raised concerns about past management issues and community relations. The decision allows the premises to operate under the new license, ensuring regulatory compliance and offering a fallback should the primary license be compromised.

The committee's decision emphasized that any future problems could be addressed through a review of the premises license, highlighting a mechanism for ongoing oversight.
