New Hospitality Lounge Plan for Whitby Town

Wednesday, 13 September 2023 at 06:00

By Anttoni James Numminen, Local Democracy Reporter

Whitby Town Football Club has applied for permission to create a new hospitality lounge at its stadium.

A new “match day sponsors’ and hospitality lounge” could be created at Whitby Town Football Club if the plans are approved by North Yorkshire Council.

WTFC’s application would see the variation of its premises licence in order to allow the addition of the hospitality lounge.

The application concerns the Towbar Express Stadium at Turnbull Ground, Upgang Lane in Whitby.

Documents submitted by the club state that “the proposed variations to the licensable activities are the addition of a match day sponsors’ [and] hospitality lounge” in addition to amendments to its current licence.

The proposed amendments would state that “no glass drinking vessels will be allowed outside the clubhouse or hospitality suite” and that “no glass drinking vessels will be allowed on the balcony of the hospitality suite”.

Public representations regarding the application are currently ongoing.

Members of the public that wish to take part can write to North Yorkshire Licensing Services at Scarborough Town Hall, St Nicholas Street.

The licensing authority can also be contacted via email at licensingservices.sca@northyorks.gov.uk.

According to the council’s website: “Representations must be received no later than September 27, 2023, that is, 28 days after valid application.

“Representations must state the grounds for the representation.”
