An application has been made to approve a lap dancing club in the building formerly known as Zorba's restaurant on Olton Boulevard East. Whatever we think about this proposal, we MUST oppose for reasons that will be considered by the licensing committee of Birmingham City Council. 

• This is close to Tiny Terrorz on the Warwick Road and opposite a nursery.
• It is in the middle of residential housing and close to a new development of 48 homes opposite. New housing behind the site is just 4 metres from the busy car park. 
• No planning permission has been sought for the change of use. The council does not know if this is suitable. 
• This is not a busy town centre with a night time economy. 
• Residents don't need the late night noise and disturbance from customers of this club. 

We call upon the city council licensing committee to refuse this application.
