HOUSING associations in Darlington have been given almost £3m to spend on new developments.
The Housing Corporation has allocated a sum of £2.7m for development in the town during 2001/02. This is an increase on last year's £1.9m.
Darlington Borough Council's cabinet will be told tomorrow that cash has been put towards six schemes.
Railway Housing is using £1.1m of the cash to build the second phase of its development at Hundens Lane.
Three Rivers Housing has also been given cash to create six units for young adults with learning disabilities and to complete the second phase of development to the south of Smithfield Road
