Cap on number of drinking venues in Derby city centre to remain in place
A restriction to limit and control the number of drinking venues within Derby city centre will remain after police warned crime could rise if it was removed.
Derby councillors have voted to keep large parts of the city centre a Cumulative Impact Area (CIA).
A CIA allows local authorities, such as Derby City Council, to restrict the number of licensed premises in specific areas – if they believe a high concentration of them could undermine key safety objectives.
The CIA encourages different types of offerings for the city centre away from drinking venues and nightclubs. Derby also has Vaillant Live, Derby Theatre, The Quad, casinos, crazy golf and cinema attractions.
