Scottish Borders Housing Association is proposing to build 14 new homes in Burnfoot, Hawick, and residents are being invited to give their views on the proposed plans.
SBHA plans to build new homes in two locations – Fairhurst Drive and Leishman Place – and the association is keen to hear the views of those living in the area, prior to submitting an official planning application.
The consultation will take place in the Burnfoot Community Hub on Friday 7 October, between 12:00 and 15:00. People will have an opportunity to view the proposed plans and give their feedback.
The association recently confirmed that it expects the capacity of the site at Fairhurst Drive to be in the region of 10-12 new homes, anticipated to be a mix of one, two and three-bedroomed houses and cottages.
The site in Leishman Place will be able to accommodate four larger, three and four- bedroom family homes.
SBHA Director of Development Emma Garry said: “Burnfoot is an extremely popular area, and we are delighted be in a position to increase housing options here with these new homes, suitable for a variety of needs. We are keen to hear the thoughts of as many residents as possible on our suggested plans.”
