PLANNING GREEN LIGHT FOR SEAFRONT HOTEL TO BE CONVERTED TO APARTMENTS

Soon to be converted to apartments - the Oyo Hotel on Kingsway

PLANNING consent was today granted for the Oyo Hotel MJ on Kingsway in Cleethorpes to be converted to seven self-contained apartments. 

The application submitted by Mr Jide Daramola did not go before North East Lincolnshire Council's planning committee but was determined under delegated powers by case officer Lauren Birkwood who maintains the proposal will be "in keeping with the existing property and wider area". 

She believes there will be "no significant impacts" on the residential amenity of neighbours, nor on drainage or highways.  

The Grimsby News says: How regrettable to see the loss of another Cleethorpes hotel - one that enjoys  an advantageous position looking over the estuary. Only last week, NELC chiefs announced an initiative aimed at enhancing tourism and encouraging more staying visitors. How can this  this be achieved if the authority continues with its policy of allowing resort hotels and guesthouses to be converted to flats and bedsitters?
