00:06drink-related problems.
00:08Global Food Store on Town Street in Armley applied for a license to sell drinks daily
00:13from 9am to 11.30pm.

00:21gathering in the area.
00:23The applicants said measures would be in place to prevent nuisance behaviour, including CCTV
00:28and staff training.
00:30Councillors will discuss the application and can grant, refuse or allow it with additional
00:35conditions.
