Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Application to extend opening hours - Royal Casino Slots 519 Green Lanes
Hello,
There has recently been an application to remove the restriction on the opening hours of the 'Royal Casino Slots' so that it no longer needs to close at 11pm - and can trade late into the night.
Studies have shown that gambling facilities are linked to crime and ASB (noise and disruption) and risk affecting vulnerable groups the most (children and those with mental health challenges, the homeless, and suffering addiction).
There are already numerous gambling outlets on Green Lanes which can be seen to have a detrimental impact on community wellbeing and this could set a precedent for others wishing to open into the early hours. (please note that this is separate from a similar recent planning application at Admiral, No.513 Green Lanes).
If you would like to make a representation (it doesn't need to be long and detailed) please email Licensing.Licensing@haringey.gov.uk with a deadline of Thursday 19th December.

Thanks for the heads up. Here's the thread about the last application by Admiral which has some details about objecting.
Edit: I can't find the application on the planning website, but if you have it then please link!

You can also read here why that application was denied (primarily on the basis that "the extended operating hours would result in comings and goings at unsociable times which the appellant would have little or no control over") and I can't see why the same reasoning wouldn't apply here.
