The North Lincolnshire Council has approved the conversion of unoccupied office areas above the Ellko supermarket in High Street, Scunthorpe, into residential flats. The sanctioned development involves the establishment of 26 self-sustaining flats. The units, available in one, two, and three-bedroom specifications, will each consist of individual kitchen and bathroom utilities. Profoundly, the premises will not function as a House in Multiple Occupation (HMO), securing distinct living quarters for each flat. This commendable decision comes on the heels of a meticulous noise assessment, addressing concerns associated with the central locality of the town. This article is a derivative of original reportage by www.bbc.com, shared by The Lincoln Post.
