Current priorities and concerns

As Chairman of Licensing one of my main priorities has been to co-ordinate with all partners and EBC officers to ensure all licensed outlets including public houses and restaurants keep to their special conditions.

We are campaigning to ensure that all licensed premises display their special conditions on a front window display so police officers and even members of the public can stop anti-social behaviour and excessive drinking, by reporting the premises to the necessary authorities if the conditions are broken.

.

Another main concern is the Hersham Taxi Rank. This is under utlised and I trust that the situation will improve and have urged the taxi drivers to show more presence at this rank.

I will endeavour to keep the council tax as low as possible but improve the services of EBC in light of modern business practises.
