With news that the Sunny Hill Pub will be reopening residents will have direct access to this and the Over 50s Club to purchase alcohol. I believe that additional access to alcohol purchasing will further worsen anti social issues that are already problem in this area.
We also have vandalism issue in the shopping complex that the proposed bottle shop would go into and I think with the added alcohol this will only compound this issue.
I am not opposed to business development in the area and would like for all the shops in this complex to be leased and have successful operations but I think a bottle shop is unnecessary.

As a business owner I do not want to stifle business development in this area. However, much public reaction from customers who frequent this shopping area aligns with my belief regarding the possible antisocial behaviour that may result from this proposal.
Further, business premises in this centre are routinely subject to out of hours vandalism. This proposal is likely to exacerbate such acts.
If this proposal is to be accepted by Council then hours of operation must be tightly controlled so that people do not congregate in the area after businesses close.
