Provision Of New Student Residences
University of the West of Scotland Ayr Campus – Public Consultation Open Day - Monday 8th March, 2.00 pm – 7.30 pm.- Room J129 UWS, Ayr Campus, Beech Grove, Ayr.
University of the West of Scotland has commissioned a student residences development for its new Ayr campus to provide 300 bed spaces.
The first phase, of 200 beds, is due to be completed in line with the new University campus completion of September 2011. The residences development site, located on the west side of the former pitch and putt in Craigie Estate, already benefits from outline planning consent [reference 07/00881/OUT] and the University now seeks approval for detailed design.
The new accommodation will comprise apartments each with shared kitchen/diner and lounge facilities. Communal facilities will include management suite, common room and laundry provision.
The second public consultation open day will take place on Monday, 8th March at the University’s existing campus in Ayr. The event will run from 2:00pm-7:30pm in Room J129. All comments collated and reviewed from the first consultation have been summarised and will be anonymously displayed at the open day with team members on hand to discuss how these comments have been addressed where possible and integrated into the proposal.
Further comment cards will be available at the event and can be completed at the consultation or taken away and returned to the address, and by the date, stated on the card. Representatives from UWS and the project team will be available throughout the event and will be happy to answer any questions you may have. Alternatively, please contact the project architects: Marc Henshaw or Tom Exell at Lewis & Hickey Architects, 1 St Bernard’s Row, Edinburgh, EH4 1HW. Tel 0131 343 6222.
Comments made to Lewis Hickey and/or University of the West of Scotland are not representations to the planning authority. If an application for planning consent is submitted by Lewis Hickey/University of the West of Scotland there will be an opportunity to make representation on that application to South Ayrshire Council as the Planning Authority.
