It has seen the overall cost to transform Nuneaton's council house into emergency rooms for families at risk of homelessness skyrocket to £2.1m
The conversion of the council house into a huge emergency homeless hostel is going to cost £850,000 more than planned.
It has been revealed that Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council underestimated the cost of the works to create much-needed emergency rooms for families at risk of homelessness.
And it has seen the overall total skyrocket from £1.25m to £2.1m.
The new costs are revealed in an updated capital programme document due to be discussed by members of the council's cabinet on Wednesday.
The issue has been debated before, behind-closed-doors.
But now the figures are out in the pubic domain within the cabinet document.
CoventryLive contacted the borough council for a comment. None was made available at the time of publication.
