Tesco appeal failure to obtain alcohol license in Cumulative Impact Zone
Last month, Tesco failed in their bid to obtain an alcohol license for their Mill Road store, which is in a Cumulative Impact Zone, which creates a rebuttable presumption against new alcohol licenses. This is despite the statement on their website that
“We do not apply for licences in areas with known disorder issues”
We have now heard that, as expected, Tesco plans to appeal.
We are finding out exactly what process will be followed, and will report any updates here. We will maintain the opposition we successfully put forward at the Licensing Committee last month.
An update on this and other matters will be published shortly.
