Green light for new takeaway at former OAP centre in Kirkcaldy
Plans to turn a long-abandoned former Kirkcaldy old folks’ centre into a take-away have been given the go-ahead.
The change of use will breathe new life into the building after permission was formally granted by Fife Council.
Hasan Dogan has got the go-ahead to redevelop the old Dunniker OAP Centre on Lauder Road.
The centre - which sits opposite a Co-op store close to Victoria Hospital - was previously the Dunnikier Old Mens’ Club and latterly the OAP Centre. It was once home to a number of local groups and activities before being sold in 2018.
Closed for a number of years, the building was set on fire in 2022.
The new plans will see it turned into a take-away which will operate between midday and 11:00pm seven days a week.
Conditions include ensuring there are suitable customer litter bins which will be emptied at appropriate intervals.
