One part tranquility, one part revenue
Series: Estates Gazette ; (0048) 2 December 2000, 110-111(2)Publication details: 2000Subject(s): Summary: Looks at the problem of balancing the leisure use in urban areas with the residents' needs. It uses Westminster's Urban Development Plan as an example as it is in line with government policy on licensed premises and aims for a balance between residents' and operators' wishes. Westminster plans to resolve the leisure use saturation of central London by limiting opening hours and encouraging the export of bars and restaurants to neighbouring boroughs. Westminster also plans to use a split-licensing scheme, setting operating conditions to the premises to take in local requirements and allowing flexible, even 24 hour, opening times. As more mixed-use schemes go ahead and add to the pressures of urban planning, Westminster's UDP aims to retain the balance between the competing demands of leisure operators and local residents.| Item type | Current library | Call number | Copy number | Status | Barcode | |
