An application to build a three-storey block of three flats in what was previously the gardens of 67 and 69 Longbrook Street has been submitted to the city council for approval.
The gardens are currently a 209 square metre private car park used by commuters. The applicant is the landlord of both houses, which are large student HMOs.
The application documents present the proposals for the two-bed flats, which are designed for a total of ten occupants, as residential development.
They mention the St James Neighbourhood Plan but do not address its community balance policies.
Comments on the development proposals can be submitted via the city council website where the application can be viewed in full.
