Councillor Sharon Ball and I attended the initial consultation meeting at Roseberry Place yesterday afternoon to see the presentation and listen to plans for the redevelopment of a key area along the Lower Bristol Road.
The initial plans look very promising, with a mixture of one and two bedroom flats, small amount of local needs retail and an area for flexible employment opportunities.
There has been a large amount of time spent on the planning and research for this redevelopment and it is hoped we will see a formal planning application put forward to BANES Council during the Spring 2015.
We will keep you informed of progress with this project and hope this will result in more of the derelict areas of our community being brought back to life and benefiting local residents.
