8. CONSIDERATIONS & ASSESSMENT

8.1. The main considerations in the determination of this application relate to the acceptability varying conditions 29 of application BH2019/02948 in order to extend the opening hours of the approved public house on the site to the hours of 09:00 - 00:30 on Mondays to Sundays.

Impact on Amenity:

8.2. Application BH2019/02948 granted permission for the demolition of the Sussex Cricketers Public House and a replacement public house to be incorporated in the approved development. The opening hours are conditioned as 09:00 - 23:30 Mondays to Sundays including bank or public holidays. This current application proposes to extend the opening hours by an hour. It is noted that the proposed opening hours match that of the pre-existing public house on the site.

8.3. The site is in close proximity to neighbouring residential properties including the proposed residential flats approved on the site, some of which would be located directly above the public house. No concerns were raised on the 2019 application regarding the impact of the proposed public house on residential amenity. Objections have been raised raising concerns that the increased opening hours would result in increased noise and disturbance.

8.4. Whilst it is acknowledged that an increase could result in additional impact, the Environmental Health Officer has reviewed the proposed opening hours and raises no objections, given they were the opening hours of the previous public house and that the hours would align with other nearby licensed premises.

8.5. It is therefore considered that the variation of the opening hours would not have a material impact on the previously approved scheme or significantly impact on neighbouring properties.

Other Considerations:

8.6. The other conditions previously applied must be revised and updated where necessary:

· Conditions 1 is not used as works to Phase 1 have commenced

· Condition 2 is updated to include new plans

· Conditions 5, 8, 23, 40, 47, 48, 51, 52 and 72 have been re-worded to ensure that details submitted under Approval of Details applications are implemented.

· Condition 65 of application BH2019/02948 relates to Car Free development. It is no longer considered appropriate for the LPA to impose the car free condition because parking in the local area and limiting the issue of parking permits is already covered through the management of the Controlled Parking Zone. Condition 65 will therefore be removed on this current permission.

9. COMMUNITY INFRASTRUCTURE LEVY

9.1. Under the Regulations of the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) 2010 (as amended), Brighton & Hove City Council adopted its CIL on 23 July 2020 and began charging on all CIL liable planning applications on and from the 5 October 2020. The original application was granted planning permission prior to the introduction of charging on CIL liable applications. Since the proposal does not increase the amount of floorspace permitted and relate to a condition, the scheme is not CIL liable.

10. EQUALITIES

10.1. None identified in addition to those identified in the original application.
