I object to this application for the following reasons:
1) Public safety concerns and g General well-being of the neighbourhood
• This a residential area where families with young children live.
• There is a high school +-100m away from this location, which is an unnecessary temptation to underage school kids as well as an increased chance of drunk driving and accidents.
2) Potential impact on crime rates
• The area does not have regular Police roadblocks; therefore, people will not be deterred from drunk driving. In addition, the road is already known as a safety blackspot and has additional signage.
• Drunk people walking around the neighbourhood increase the chances of crime.
• The road is already known as a safety blackspot and has additional signage.
3) Potential disturbances and Increased noise levels
• In NSW, the night (10 pm to 7 am) noise level should not exceed the background noise by more than 5 decibels. The licence is until 12:00 AM, and the noise restrictions are unlikely to be adhered to.
• Unwanted noise levels when people depart the premises late at night.
4) Parking -related issues
• Parking in the area is limited, and this will cause issues for residents.
5) Impact on property values
6) Impact the overall character of the community.
7) Increased waste and litter
Finally, Roaming Bar Pty Ltd was registered in Oct 2023, and there is no history of being a responsible licence holder.
