·        The Hurdler, 93 New Cross Road, Stamford

The Environmental Health Manager (Environment) advised the committee that agreement had been reached with three of the applications currently before the committee and it was therefore considered unnecessary to hold a hearing.  These were the applications in respect of The Bull Hotel, Market Deeping, The Hurdler in Stamford and The Royal Oak in Bourne.  A proposal to authorise the Head of Environmental Health and Licensing should be authorised to determine the applications as appropriate.  The remaining applications had been requested for adjournments by the applicants themselves.  In respect of The Baskervilles in Baston, the notices had not been correctly displayed outside the premises and the applicant had therefore agreed to an extension of time.  In respect of The Burghley Arms in Bourne, negotiations with the police were still ongoing.  It was therefore moved and seconded that the above named applications be deferred.

The meeting closed at 9.47a.m.
