Council policies restrict the opening of new takeaways in areas of high childhood obesity
Plans to redevelop empty units in South Shore have got the go-ahead from town hall planners - but their owner was warned they must not be used as takeaways. Hopes of using the properties to serve takeaway food were dashed due to obesity fears.
Planners said the changes would bring two empty commercial units back into use and "improve the appearance of the existing building in an area of special local character.” Originally it had been proposed to use the ground floor units as hot-food takeaways, but this would have contravened council policies restricting the opening of new takeaways in areas of high childhood obesity.
