Update on Ashdene House from EGVRA
It has been thought by some that EGVRA were in favour of Ashdene House becoming converted into more student accommodation. I wish to reiterate and make clear for the record that this is most certainly not the case.
I most recently raised this topic at the Councillors' Surgery on Saturday 12th May at which local councillors - Marisa Heath, Japneet Sohi, Nick Prescot and Nigel King were present and was subsequently (17th May) sent this statement from Cllr. Marisa Heath -
"Following the last proposals, local councillors intervened and requested that an alternative to dense student accommodation was provided despite the financial viability. We are now looking at good quality private accommodation with a well designed building and have been drawing up proposals. We plan to come back to residents within the next few weeks to get their opinions on our designs."
Your EGVRA committee will be keeping a close eye on this.
