Harrow town centre 'shop swap' plans recommended for grant
Plans to turn a Harrow town centre shop into a gaming centre and a neighbouring gaming centre into a shop have been recommended for approval.
Watford-based company Ablethird has applied to change the use of 8 St Ann's Road from an adult gaming centre (sui generis) to retail (A1 class) and to simultaneously change the use of 10 St Ann's Road from retail to an adult gaming centre.
Harrow Council's development management committee will meet on Wednesday March 25 to decide whether to follow their officers' advice and give the two parallel schemes the thumbs-up.
Ablethird's original application to turn number 8 into a gaming centre - run under its Agora brand - was turned down by the authority in October 2003 but was allowed on appeal in August 2004.
The firm was actually blocked in October 2007 from changing number 10 into an adult gaming centre.
