Planners approve modular homes for homeless in Cornwall
The BBC report Cornwall Council's plans to install more one-bedroom modular units for homeless people on a site in Long Rock have been approved
The application was unanimously approved by the council's west sub-area planning committee on last week.
Planning officers recommended that the application be approved, according to the Local Democracy Reporting Service.
In their report to the committee they said:
"In terms of the benefits of the scheme, it is acknowledged that the scheme would increase the supply of specialist 'move-on' (rather than emergency) housing, which is an identified priority of the current housing shortage within Cornwall.
"The proposal has significant social and economic benefits by having purpose-built accommodation available, rather than the council using expensive and less suitable alternative accommodation as it does at present."
