Residents living in the Smithdown Road area of south Liverpool have said they are fed up with the impact alcohol, litter and anti-social behaviour is having on their neighbourhood.
The comments have come to light after plans were put forward for another late night off licence to open in the popular student area. Liverpool Council has received an application for a premises licence that could see a unit at 142 Smithdown Road turned into an off licence that would sell alcohol daily until 2am.
The plans, from applicant Indika Sudath Aththiligoda Gammage, have prompted a number of objections from people living locally who believe there is a need for less alcohol to be sold in the area, not more.
