Cabinet member for Children and Young People’s Services, Coun Adam Wilkinson
Initially Calderdale Council’s Cabinet gave the go-ahead for council officers to look into buying two properties in the borough and draw up works required which will turn them into suitable homes.
Then in the private section of business at April’s meeting of the full council, councillors agreed the recommendation to add the money to to the council’s capital programme to buy and refurbish the properties.
They will do this through prudential borrowing – by which councils can borrow money at special rates – over 25 years and the aim is that the new properties are developed on an “invest to save” basis.
