City council votes for transit location Ikenhiem
Last night, September 30, the City Council approved the proposal to purchase Ikenhiem. The municipality wants to turn this into a transit location for status holders.
What will happen next?
The municipality can now buy the property and see exactly what needs to be remodeled so that status holders can live there. Status holders are people who have applied for and been granted asylum in the Netherlands. They are entitled to (social housing), but are still staying in an asylum seekers' center because there is not enough housing. In a transit location, people can live temporarily. After that they are supposed to move to their homes in different municipalities in Fryslân.
