All of the quotes you used are on the Friends of Peckham Rye website - http://www.peckhamryepark.org/newsThey don't quote any source or evidence for this claim either.The application was amended withdrawing the 'in perpetuity' aspect + some other amendments to reflect concerns that had been raised. The Licensing Authority then withdrew their representations against. TBF I don't think this info is on Southwark's website yet, but it was communicated by email to parties who have expressed interest.

ruffers Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Do we know how much Gala pay the council to hold this event? Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/290334-gala-setting-up-on-peckham-rye/page/10/#findComment-1582634 Share on other sites More sharing options...
first mate Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 So that website would have been the source for various articles, I am not involved with FPR but imagine they have the best interests of the park at heart.It would be good to know that those amendments and withdrawals have definitely been made how did you find out about them?DuncanW Wrote:-------------------------------------------------------> first mate Wrote:> --------------------------------------------------> -----> > I have quoted one of a number of online> articles,> > and do not know their source for the 'recovery'> > aspect.> > > > This year, when the event organiser requested> an> > in perpetuity licence for, I think, up to 4> events> > a year, Cllr Hamvas objected.

DuncanW Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 I'm sure they have, but that means different things to different people I guess.The info was sent to me in an email as I had expressed interest.If you want to DM me your email address I can forward it on. Understand if you don't want to and would rather wait, Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/290334-gala-setting-up-on-peckham-rye/page/10/#findComment-1582700 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnL Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 In Perpetuity is actually a long time.Like my Sky contract is 18months and that seems long.

jazzer Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Perpetuity - meaning, the state or quality of lasting forever. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/290334-gala-setting-up-on-peckham-rye/page/10/#findComment-1582716 Share on other sites More sharing options...
first mate Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Thank DuncanW.JohnL, legalalien kindly explained that it was likely this was not wholly sinister, in that the request was so the company did not have to go through the rigamarole of applying for a licence each year. That said, I think there is more control and accountability if they have to, which it seems they now will, if DuncanW is correct in what he has heard.
