I would like to have a say in this application for a liquor licence. I have not seen any displayed application posted, or distributed to the residents that overlook this area, so I will have to make some assumptions.
I have no objection to this training school having a licence between 8am to 5pm whilst they are training their students in making cocktails. The school hours are for classes from 8am to 4pm weekdays.
I do have any objections to a licence being granted if alcohol is being served for consumption and outside of these business hours, and on weekends. This school is in a quiet residential area of West Melbourne, and potentially excessive noise that could arise from drunk and loud behavior does echo in the area.
There are already many established bars in the West Melbourne area on the exposed main streets (such as Spencer and Victoria Streets) they already have security and processes in place to deal with any deviant behaviour. As this training college is in a quiet park with no passing traffic, if anything goes wrong outside of business hours, it will not be quiet, or safe for the residents that live on the adjoining roads.
thankyou for considering my comments.
