Trago Mills in Merthyr Tydfil has been given permission to open, sell alcohol and play live music for longer. The store on Swansea Road was successful in applying to vary a premises licence to allow the sale of alcohol from 10am to 10pm from Monday to Sunday, play live music indoors and outdoors from 10am to 8pm from Monday to Sunday and to be able to open from 9am to 10.30pm from Monday to Sunday.
The application was considered by the council’s statutory licensing committee on Monday, June 12 which has decided to grant it with certain conditions including the number of days for outdoor musical entertainment in a year, noise monitoring and CCTV requirements among others. Trago Mills had a licence which allowed it to sell alcohol from 9am until 8pm between Monday and Friday, from 9am until 6pm on Saturday and from 9am until 4pm on Sunday.
The licence it already had was for opening hours and the playing of live music from 10am until 8pm between Monday and Friday, from 10am until 6pm on Saturday and from 10am until 4pm on Sunday. That licence was granted by the licensing sub-committee on in March 2018, subject to conditions and the report said that the council has not received any complaints in relation to this premises since the licence was issued.
