Council chiefs have revealed ambitious plans to replace the 504 properties on the estate with up to 250 new homes, including more family accommodation – while paying tenants £4,700 each to move.

homeless Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 ahh the layton flats. lots of rough wasters and junkies living in these. they are however stuck in a decent enough area, near bispham road and stanley park. so the area could make a very good estate. thing is though property prices are dropping on their ass in blackpool to the point i think that its uneconomical to build there. lots of junkies are gonna get 5k and rehoused though, the dealers will be having a ball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are "known" druggies they won't be getting the £5k. Also not clear whether this is to just move them, or buy their secure tenancy.
