Solihull Council to consider casino applications
| Posted on August 21, 2010 at 4:12 AM |
Solihull Council has received two applications for the grant of a large casino licence.
The two applications are for a large casino at the National Exhibition Centre, applicant Genting Casinos UK limited, and on the former Dave & Buster site (Otium Leisure Park), Highlands Road, Shirley, applicant Grosvenor Casinos Limited.
A report will be submitted to the Solihull Licensing Committee on September 15th when the applications will be judged according to the criteria set down within the Gambling Act 2001.
If both applications meet the initial criteria, the Council will begin the second stage of the application process, where each applicant will outline the benefits that their large casino will bring to the borough. The licence will then be awarded to the applicant who would, in the Council’s opinion, bring the greatest economic, financial and social benefits to the area. However, the Council still reserves the right to pass a “No Casino Resolution” should it be considered that by granting a casino licence insufficient benefits would be available to the borough.
Representations in respect of these applications must be made in writing by Friday 27 August 2010 and sent to gmorrice@solihull.gov.uk or sent to The Licensing Manager, P O Box 1833, Council House, Solihull, B91 9DZ.
