A DEVELOPER has been refused permission to turn a commercial garage into a members-only gym.
Damian Murray, of Bob Bennett Town Planning, applied to open the new facility in Selwyn Avenue, Highams Park.
But council officers rejected the bid under delegated powers.
They said the plans would have a negative effect on parking in the area and would reduce amenities in the neighbourhood contrary to council policy.
