Work on improving the outdoor dining area for Conrod’s at the Boathouse Cafe, Mooragh Park, Ramsey, is expected to start this spring.

The coffee shop leases the building from Ramsey Commissioners and both parties worked together on the design.

Planning approval was granted last July for the creation of an outdoor dining area with planters and cafe barriers with signage, canopy covers and low voltage lighting.

Housing and property manager Mark Close told the commissioners that all the structures would be installed in a way that they could be removed to leave the area back in its existing condition.
