A music venue has delayed its application for a new licence as nearby householders are consulted on noise-prevention measures.
Concerns were raised over drinks being served indoors until 1am and some outdoor events being staged at Project House in Armley.
The Armley Road venue already has a premises licence, but sought updated permission from Leeds City Council to operate.
It would allow up to 12 outdoor events to be held on Saturdays and bank holidays between May 1 and August 31, with music played until 9pm.
A licensing hearing at Leeds Civic Hall, scheduled for Tuesday, May 5, was adjourned until July at the request of the applicant, Super Friendz Ltd.
A council report said: “The applicant requires sufficient time to engage with the concerns of local residents, commission a noise impact assessment and to prepare their case for the hearing.”
Three letters of objection were received from people living nearby on the grounds of potential public nuisance.
One wrote: “We already hear their events, above the sound of our television with our windows and doors closed.
“Between May and September we are likely to want our windows open, which exacerbates the the issue of noise disturbance.”
The venue had already reached an agreement with West Yorkshire Police over conditions on the licence.
They included CCTV, staff training, door searches and crowd control measures.
A licensing report said: “Children and young people under 18 years of age shall only be allowed on the premises in the company of an adult.
“All events will be ticketed with the exception of privately booked functions.”
A licensing sub-committee will have the option of granting the new application, refusing or allowing it with additional conditions.
