A Southside cafe cannot be turned into a Thai takeaway after a developer’s appeal was thrown out by councillors.
Council planners had rejected a bid to turn premises at Boyd Street into a hot food takeaway, with a seating area, but the applicant, 4 Square Property Ltd, called for the decision to be reviewed.
They argued the venue would “add value to the surrounding neighbourhood”, with a new tenant serving “high-end Thai cuisine”. However, councillors on the city’s planning local review committee have upheld the original decision.
