During his presentation Chandler said pallet units need to be separated by 10 feet. They only have to separate MSUs by five feet. MSUs would also be built in a factory in Denver and delivered to the site as a fully built product. Pallet shelters require some on-site assembly. Aurora has about 100 pallet shelters. Knight said more than half of the people who move into a pallet shelter in Aurora move out and into permanent housing.
