Planning permission has been given the green light to restore a former committee room at Clacton Town Hall.
The room, most recently used as the Housing Reception, is due to be converted back into a meeting room space as part of Tendring District Council’s (TDC) Transformation Project.
Last night TDC’s planning committee approved an application for Listed Building Consent, giving the proposals the go-ahead.
Under the scheme, the room’s original parquet flooring, some of the wall panelling, plasterwork and other features will be restored.
New features such as lighting, power and network connections are also set to be installed.
