City of York Council (21 010 595)
Statement Not upheld Licensing 25-Feb-2022
Summary: The Ombudsman exercised discretion not to investigate Mr D’s complaint about the Council failing to follow the correct procedure when it approved a minor variation application sent by a neighbouring business. This is because he could have appealed a later review hearing which considered his evidence and concerns about the application. In addition, we could not achieve any worthwhile achievable outcome by investigating further.
