Advice
The Committee unanimously supported the recommendation.
Background
Place Management NSW (PMNSW) is partnering with Independent Liquor and Gaming Authority (ILGA) and the City of Sydney (CoS) to deliver a pilot that will streamline outdoor alcohol licensing requirements for venues. The Rocks hotels and restaurants have been put forward as the initial priority focus to trial new regulations to assist local tenants in The Rocks for extended trading. An on-site meeting was held 29th September 2020 at The Australian Hotel with TfNSW, CoS, Police Licensing, Avert Risk and PMNSW to discuss this activation and review streamlining similar future activations under the pilot program.
Due to the short timeframes imposed to turn this around by
16th October, following site meetings, PMNSW subsequently submitted
an application to the Central Sydney Traffic and Transport Committee
(CSTTC), whom endorsed the proposal on 15th October. The areas proposed have
been set up, have been running under the terms, have had no impacts on traffic,
parking or loading zones and are planned to be in place until 27th April 2021.
This date could be extended from 6 - 12month next year if required.
This proposal is for the endorsement by LPCTCC of the existing activities until 27th April 2021 in line with CSTTC.
