PLANS to build a nine-screen cinema and six restaurants at the Alhambra are due to be approved at a planning meeting next week, council papers reveal.
The development will create up to 230 jobs - 60 at the cinema, 160 in the restaurants, and ten in security and maintenance.
The extension will be built on top of the existing roof structure and would mean the removal of one of the glass rooflights. A decision will be made at the planning board on Tuesday.

We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
