Proposed new gaming centre for Edgware Road

Many of you will know that there is a planning application to turn the off licence at 165 Edgware Road into a gaming centre with slot machines etc. There is also another application being considered which proposes an extension of the premises, presumably to make way for more equipment. The first application has been deferred by the planning committee following my intervention and that of the SERA secretary, Keith Martin and will not now be heard again until March. We have asked Safer Neighbourhood Team  to report on the possibility of such an establishment increasing anti-social behaviour in the area. Any interested residents should also make their voices heard by writing to the Panning Department, and, if possible, attending the meeting of the Planning Committee. At the last meeting only I and  two residents were present to put the point of view of people in the area.
