The former Dolphin Hotel, on Eastborough in Scarborough, can now be converted into flats and a coffee and sandwich shop. Giulian Alonzi, ice cream maker and owner of the Harbour Bar, has been given permission to convert the former Dolphin Hotel into residential flats and a “bespoke sandwich shop”. The sandwich shop will be on the ground floor of the four-storey building whilst the three two-bedroom apartments will be located on the upper floors.
Environmental health officers recommended limiting the permitted hours of construction work to protect the amenity of neighbours but the council said doing so was “unnecessary and unenforceable” and did not add the condition. It was also recommended that an environmental noise assessment and sound insulation and ventilation scheme be approved by the local authority to protect “the amenity for future occupants”.
