Blue Shop in Weymouth issued closure notice by council
Summary
The Blue Shop, a vape shop located at 8A Coburg Place in Weymouth, has been issued a closure notice by Dorset Council following multiple seizures of illegal smoking products over the past year. The notice, issued under the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014, was served on Monday, February 2nd, and the shop remains closed pending a full hearing on February 18th. The council believes the shop's operation has resulted in nuisance and potential disorder. Violators of the closure order face up to 51 weeks in custody or a fine. Dorset Council applied to Weymouth Magistrates’ Court to extend the closure order, and the court ordered the shop to remain closed until the full hearing.
