Aberdeenshire Council leader Jim Gifford told the Evening Express, “Officers are assessing the length of time it would take to develop the housing. But these types of houses go up in months rather than years. If the demand decreases the homes can move to different locations. It is almost like student accommodation for grown-ups. We are expecting this to range from one-bedroom flats or they could also be three bedrooms with a shared living room and kitchen.”
Aberdeenshire is targeting Inverurie and Stonehaven as possible sites, while Aberdeen has available land in Cutler. As scottishhousingnews informs MHProNews, the goal is to lure nurses and other health workers to the areas. ##
