The authorities say they are under pressure to accommodate growing numbers of asylum seekers.
But critics say the proposals are "alarming and disconcerting".

Ex-outpost of Buchenwald
If the local authorities in Schwerte have their way, asylum seekers will move later this week into one of the non-descript white barracks once overseen by the Buchenwald concentration camp, where more than 50,000 people died during World War Two.
The barracks are situated on the grounds of a Nazi-era railway repair workshop and some 700 forced labourers worked there until the outpost was closed in 1945.
Refugee groups say the plan as tasteless and historians describe the site as a place of exploitation, oppression and violence.
Communities under pressure
Local authority spokesman Carsten Morgenthal points out that communities in Germany are under increasing pressure to find accommodation for the growing stream of asylum seekers arriving in the country.
In an interview with Der Spiegel website, he said the building in question had never been used to accommodate forced labourers and had been put to various uses since the end of the war, as a home for war wounded, a storage site and, more recently, a kindergarten.
