COMMENTS on plans to build 35 retirement apartments in the centre of Cirencester are open to the public until February 19.
Developer McCarthy & Stone plans to turn the former T H White garage in Tetbury Road into 35 one and two-bed flats, with 31 car parking spaces.
A noise assessment of the site recorded high levels of low frequency noise and an architectural report confirmed that there is a high likelihood of Roman remains under the site.
Due to the site likely containing Roman funerary activity further archaeological work is expected it the plans go ahead.
According to a spokesperson from applicant McCarthy & Stone Developments the total expenditure generated by residents in the local economy by a typical example of their developments is £670,000 per year.
If the application is approved the first residents are likely to move in during autumn 2016.
Comments on this application can be submitted to the council using reference number 14/05222/FUL.
