(6) Description of Proposal Use class change from Class 1 to Class 3 Approved with a condition of early evening closure . (7) Please set out detailed reasons for requesting the review:- I am appealing the 6pm curfew on my approved class 3 licence. My tiny shop is no more than 50 metres sq and has a total of 11 seats( 4 tanles) . I play no music, I do no deep fat frying, I have no commercial cooking equipment, I have no alcohol licence or alcohol on the premises, I bake cakes and sell and serve light lunches. I'm struggling to see why a closure of 6pm each evening is an environmental issue to the town of Helensburgh. My business plan for this tiny Artisan business on the high street , included some revenue coming from the option to open later in the seasonal months. Not late, but around 8 or 9pm at latest. I offered Baking tutorials I'm my other shops and this was to be a part of my evening income in the winter when the summer trade is long gone. To stop me from earning g this income would be an instant death to my business which as already stated, relies on very few tables throughout the day. My immediate neighbour, 6 foot away is am Italian restaurant opening as late as he wishes. My neighbour a few hundred feet away was a fish and chip shop opening with no restrictions on time. The Upper Crust restuarant about 3 hundred yards going out of town, is open until late also. These places and over 117 other eateries in Helensburgh all have no restrictions on closing times, and they have multiple residents above them. The whole of Helensburgh is built with conercial properties on the ground floor and residents above. Why am I being singled out ? I pose no threat or noise, or smells or drunks at late hours. I'm a Tearoom, serving mainly elderly and people who love to bake. I'm at a loss. This is my appeal. If insufficient space please continue on a separate page. Is this attached? Please tick to confirm
