Plans for a major redevelopment of the Seapoint arcade building in Salthill have hit a stumbling block.
Oldside Enterprises Ltd has already secured permission for an overhaul to the main building that would include a new casino and overhead apartments.
But now, planning permission has been refused to demolish a building at 183 Upper Salthill that forms part of the planned redevelopment
