Local county councillor for Pembroke Monkton and St Mary South Cllr Jonathan Grimes has raised further concerns about late night licenses leading to a rise in antisocial behaviour for the locality.<br />“As well as this, I myself have serious concerns over the application variation. In my role as county councillor, I am frequently approached by residents of the ward with concerns over anti-social behaviour in the area around The Commons in Pembroke as well as the Main Street itself. This is often linked to the drunken behaviour as well as the misuse of drugs.<br /><br />“I therefore believe that a business selling alcohol late at night in this particular area would only be detrimental to the peaceful existence of the adjacent residential properties and the wider community. It would encourage people to dwell in the immediate vicinity of the premises and possibly encourage drunken behaviour.”<br />©PCC
