Ian - If you want to direct a question to a particular Councillor, then contact them directly, and then post their response here (as long as they don't ask you not to). Many of us are too busy to read, let alone respond to, this Forum every day.(OK I am at the moment, but that's due to a temporary condition I offten accuse my kids of - "work avoidance".
But your general question is a good one - the council could defer a future (greater) capital receipt by using these flats as temporary housing, thus saving revenue costs on the Homelessness budget. I look forward to the response you get. |
