PLANS have been submitted to build a storage building on a vacant Kilmarnock car park.

Innovative Utilities (UK) is behind the application for Rowallan Business Park which includes associated offices.

Thomson Hunter Associates has been appointed as the agent for the proposal, which has been submitted for planning permission to East Ayrshire Council.

The site, spanning 2,435 square metres, will see the transformation from a vacant car parking site, previously accommodating 52 spots, to a storage facility with 12 parking spaces.

The development will introduce a gross non-residential floor space of 311 square metres under Class 4 Business use, which is office and light industry.

While the change of use from a car park to a storage building with offices has been flagged, the application made on behalf of Innovative Utilities (UK) states that the car park is currently vacant.

The proposal also hints at altered arrangements for water and drainage, with the new site set to connect to the public water supply and drainage network.

A decision is yet to be made on the application.

To view the application in full, you can go to East Ayrshire Council's planning application at 26/0102/PP.
