Hornby residents stop liquor store plan after authorities fail to object


The decision said the proposed store, to have been called Good Bliss Liquor and run under the Thirsty Liquor franchise at 299 Main South Rd, would have caused more than minor harm to the community.
It said the applicants were “in complete denial of the vulnerability of the location” and had “no real plan” to manage issues.

Mark Peters, Mike Mora, Marc Duff, and Ross Houliston are pleased after successfully opposing a liquor licence application in Hornby.
Objectors listed existing problems in the area including public and domestic violence, drug dealing, vandalism, addiction, driving behaviour, littering and other social nuisances. One expressed shock that there were already 31 on-licences and off-licences in the Hornby area.
