REPRESENTATIONS<br />
SEVENTY SIX signature petition received raising OBJECTION to the proposed change <strong>of</strong><br />
use, plus a letter on behalf <strong>of</strong> the <strong>West</strong> <strong>Norfolk</strong> branch <strong>of</strong> CAMRA raising the following<br />
grounds:<br />
We believe that a Public House is a vital local amenity, especially when other amenities such<br />
as local shops and post <strong>of</strong>fices are under threat. A well run Public House <strong>of</strong>fers a controlled<br />
drinking area which can reduce nuisance in the local area as well as providing a focus for<br />
village life. It is even more important if it is the last remaining pub in a village or area. It can<br />
also provide valuable local jobs and reduce the temptation to drink and drive. There are<br />
many examples <strong>of</strong> well-run and pr<strong>of</strong>itable pubs in the <strong>West</strong> <strong>Norfolk</strong> area and we feel that the<br />
Red Hart could join these if given the chance.<br />
TWO letters from a third party interested in purchasing the public house and has made an<br />
<strong>of</strong>fer to the applicants.<br />
