The club say the change would offer greater flexibility for event planning and that their only close neighbour supports the plan.
An application for the variation of Scarborough Rugby Union Football Club’s (RUFC) premises licence has been submitted to the borough council seeking permission to slightly change the location of a marquee bar within the grounds of the club. Scarborough RUFC already has permission for the marquee bar itself.
The premises licence is held by the J. M. Guthrie Clubhouse on Silver Royd in Scalby, Scarborough.
A public consultation on the plans is currently ongoing and representations can be made until November 24.
The application submitted to Scarborough Council states: “Alcohol may be sold within a tented structure acting as an outside bar facility within the grounds of the premises.”
The application also states that conditions for approval would include “additional portable toilets adjacent to the bar”, a requirement that “all drinks sold outside shall be sold in non-glass containers”, and that “no alcohol can be sold or consumed in a tented structure after 9pm”.
The application is also seeking to change a further condition of its current licence which would permit people visiting Hartley’s café-bar to be served alcohol after 8pm.
Currently, the RUFC’s licence states that “no tented structure shall be erected within 100 metres of any residential property”.
The notice of the application states that the change would offer “greater flexibility for our events planning” adding that “our only close neighbour fully supports the change”.
RUFC also states that the time limitation would “ensure the tented structure was not used for the supply of alcohol beyond 9pm” while “marquees would not be placed near the boundaries of the site in the areas marked in green on the attached plan”.
The licence currently permits the sale of alcohol and the playing of music at the J. M. Guthrie Clubhouse until 2am seven days a week.
