PLANNING THUMBS-DOWN FOR ROOF GARDEN ATOP CLEETHORPES MEXICAN-STYLE BAR

It's no-go for the roof-garden at the Havana Cabana bar-restaurant 

IT looks like a Mexican-style rum and tequila bar in Cleethorpes  will have to shut down its roof garden and outdoor seating area.

Havana Cabana, on Sea View Street, went ahead with the project without the benefit of planning permission.

Following investigations - plus protests from neighbours about loud music  - Taniya Hussain submitted a formal planning application to North East Lincolnshire Council, but this retrospective proposal has now been refused.

As well as the noise complaints, there were questions over both the loadbearing structural integrity of the roof garden and over adequate escape arrangements in the event of a fire.

The refusal notice states: "The alterations to form roof garden and seating area attached to Havana Cabana have been in place for nearly one year and have provided an additional facility for the business, supporting it during the pandemic. 

"In addition, the area provides a facility for patrons to use adding the vitality of this part of Cleethorpes town centre. 

"However its construction, operation and position relative to sensitive domestic receptors in what was previously a quiet area at the back of buildings is such that it has generated unacceptable noise nuisance to the detriment of neighbours residential amenity."
