DENTIST SEEKS TO EXPAND PEMBROKE BUILDING PLN Dentist seeks to expand Pembroke building A local dentist is seeking planning permission to expand a Pembroke building to accommodate his practice.

Dr. Clark Godwin has applied to the Development Applications Board to gain approval to build an extension to an existing building on 41 Parsons Road.

The upper level of the two-storey structure will be home to his dental office and reception area. The lower level will contain an apartment.

"I want to increase the number of dental surgery chairs from two to four,'' Dr. Godwin explained. "All of upstairs will be dental and downstairs will be residential.'' In November he received approval from the DAB to change the Pembroke building's use from a house to a dentist's office.

Last year, Dr. Godwin successfully appealed a Dental Practitioners' Board decision to strike his name from the list of registered practitioners after his conviction for insurance fraud.
