Funky Mojoe in High Road reapplied on Thursday to stay open until 2am on August 27, October 29, Christmas Day and December 27.

The club withdraw a bid for the same temporary event notices on August 3.

A council spokesman said: “The council’s anti-social behaviour (noise) team has objected to the recent application on the grounds that the proposed events will cause public nuisance to the residents who live in the vicinity.”

As a result, a members’ panel will be set up with a hearing date still to be announced.

Speaking on Friday about the application, Cllr Richard Hoskins, of Church End ward, said: “They [Funky Mojoe] have late opening 52 weeks of the year.

“That should be enough seeing as it’s operating in a residential area.”

The venue’s management is not willing to comment to the Recorder on its licensing applications.
