They were due to be up for private rent
Flats built on the site of a former police station could now be used to house families experiencing homelessness. Nottingham City Council had initially proposed the apartments be put on the market for rent, however, an 'urgent' need for temporary accommodation means a change of use is proposed.
The council says: "Since the 2019 decision, the need for additional temporary accommodation has become more acute. NCH agreed that, at least in the short term, it would utilise the Midland House building as temporary accommodation for families to whom the council has a duty."Nottingham City Homes Limited is the parent company for two smaller companies called Nottingham City Homes Enterprises Limited and Nottingham City Homes Registered Provider .
"This would involve leasing the property to NCH RP to manage because, as a registered provider, NCH RP is capable of claiming enhanced housing benefit to meet the costs of this accommodation," the council adds. "In this way, this would save the council over £500,000 per year in its temporary accommodation budget."
