MHK wants more action taken against dilapidated property owners
Manage episode 518919661 series 3416651
A Douglas East MHK says Treasury isn't going far enough to deal with dilapidated properties and derelict buildings on the Island.
Joney Faragher is introducing a motion to Tynwald later this month which aims to give local authorities the power to impose charges on the owners of these sites.
It also adds that any off-Island owners of domestic property should face additional charges on that property.
Treasury has been consulting residents and local authorities about removing exemptions for derelict properties, introducing caps on the quarry rate as well as looking into rebate schemes.
Local Democracy Reporter Emma Draper has been speaking to Ms Faragher.
