I could not agree more. I believe if a property has been neglected by the owner for an extended period, the Council should have the power to seize the building and do whatever is needed then sell it or the land. As an example, the old Palladium in Ossy which has been an eyesore for years. The Council should be able to demollish it, if they see fit, and sell the land on with the owner getting nothing.
