A vacant hairdressing salon could be transformed into a fried chicken takeaway after planning officers recommended the scheme for approval – despite objections from Rhyl Town Council, residents, and the health board. The application, submitted by Ernest Thananjcheliyan, seeks permission to change the use of the former Helen's hairdressers at 45 Trellewelyn Road into a hot food takeaway serving fried chicken, fries, rice, and salads. The business would operate daily between 11am and 11pm.
