Plans to let a Bournemouth nightclub trade until 5am are due before councillors next week.
Lost, in Commercial Road, has applied to extend its licence on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays directly before a bank holiday Monday, while also seeking permission to use the venue's second floor.
The request, made by Lascelles Richardson for VIP Events Ltd, would change door staff conditions from a general risk assessment to a written assessment based on day, time and event type, with at least 2 supervisors from 10pm on those dates using body cameras.
The council has received 7 representations from residents, with 6 raising concerns about potential "public nuisance disturbances" and 1 supporting the application, which will be considered alongside the applicant's suggested changes.
Dorset Police's Licensing Team has mediated with the applicant, with agreed changes including a glassware policy and a review of the dispersal policy when required by the venue in future.
The licensing committee is set to consider the application on Tuesday, September 8, when councillors will decide whether the licence variation should be granted for the Commercial Road site in Bournemouth.
