As a result, the licence will now be issued,&#8221; a council spokesperson said<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Channel 4 moved its HQ to Leeds in 2021 and makes two daily news broadcasts from the Brewery Place site, which it has occupied since 2022.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Broadcasts are delivered from the first floor directly above the planned bar.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">In its objection, ITN had said it would consider moving to a different location should the issue not be resolved.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The pub applied to serve alcohol until 02:00 on Monday to Saturday and midnight on Sundays.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/lnp\/ldrs\" class=\"ssrcss-f6h2dj-InlineLink e1kn3p7n0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Local Democracy Reporting Service,<\/a> ITN had commissioned a noise assessment which suggested ceiling insulation to dampen noise from inside.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Noise consultancy Nova Acoustics said its assessment &#8220;suggests that if external patron noise is appropriately controlled, then the likelihood for impact is low&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The report said the playing of recorded music was expected in the outside area.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">It said: &#8220;However, this should be limited to a background level to avoid actively encouraging patrons to raise their voices.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;In addition, good management of the external area will be required to avoid patrons shouting, particularly when directly outside the TV studio.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Conditions already agreed with the council included no loudspeakers in use outside after 23:00 and customers being asked to keep quiet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#8220;Agreements were reached between the applicant and objectors.
