Penryn councillors have fully supported a planning application from Ocean BMW on Falmouth Road to allow it to expand its showroom onto an adjacent site.

The plans would turn the showroom into a large, three-storey building displaying BMW and Mini cars and BMW motorcycles, with space for two marine businesses to operate from the site.

The application is for a change of use for the new site and building and for alterations to that building and the existing building, including a fibreglass model motorbike existing from one wall.
