COUNCIL VOTES TO CLOSE COFFEE STALL

Maitland Council has voted to close a popular coffee business, saying it no longer operates within the State Environmental Planning Policy.

The Bearded Cactus operates in the front yard of a home on Newcastle Road at East Maitland.

It’s considered a ‘mobile food and drink outlet’, and as such, no DA is required to trade out the van because the vehicle can be taken off site and used elsewhere.

Since opening in January, trade at the site has grown considerably, and council believes it can no longer operate as a mobile development.

Council says it’s also received a number of complaints regarding loud music, a large number of tables and chairs on the premises, and parked vehicles denying access to neighbouring homes.
