First seizure of noise equipment from city club 10/09/2010
NOISE control officers have seized equipment from a city nightclub after ongoing complaints about late-night loud music.
Leicester City Council's Noise Control Team seized 18 items of noise equipment, including loudspeakers, amplifiers and mixing desks, from La Belle Africaine, in Jubilee Road, off Belgrave Gate, on Friday, September 10.
It is obvious that the use of additional entertainment permission as contained in the Licensing Act 2003 (which was obtained in this case) is not an effective means of dealing with noise.
