Development description
I want to erect a canopy connected to my existing structure at centre perks, on the grounds of athlone regional sports centre. The canopy will be a 9.15 metres x 4.3 metre canopy 10 mm multiwall polycarbonate roof, galvanised steel frame, grey pvc side walls 4ft high on 3 sides black handrails and black gutter supplied and fitted. It'll provide shelter from the elements and make this fantastic location more accessible for more of the year. It doesn't interfere with any other buildings or amenities and i think only adds to the area.
