Leeds Headlines 27 September 2023.

Transcript

00:00 Three stories in brief, and a new restaurant opening on Osthorp Road in Crossgate has been

00:06 granted permission to sell alcohol until 1.30am. The wine and tapas venue's owner has given

00:11 reassurances to a local neighbourhood association following their concerns about a possible

00:16 change in the residential character of the area.

00:20 Next, council tenants should lose their home if they're causing misery and antisocial behaviour

00:25 to their neighbours. That's according to councillor Conrad Hartbrook, who represents Rothwell.

00:31 He said the measure would act as a deterrent for criminal and nuisance behaviour.

00:36 And finally, Leedstock's public realm will be covered by a year-round alcohol licence

00:40 after the city council approved its controversial application. Street vendors operating in the

00:45 space will be allowed to sell alcohol until 8pm Sunday to Thursday and until 10pm at weekends.
