Peel Promenade development gets green light

Peel Commissioners’ Marine Parade development is being granted planning approval. 

The local authority wants to use the tennis courts at the far end of the town's promenade to build a community centre which includes a cafe and two function rooms.

It says the existing sports area can be moved elsewhere.  

The proposed cafe would hold a total of 100 customers, and plans also include a set of new public toilets. 

Meanwhile the smaller, 50-seat function area will also serve as the new clubhouse for the bowls club.
