As its cash flow issues continue, the Mayor and City Council (M&CC) decided at a financial meeting on Thursday to start selling properties that are heavily in arrears on rates.
Speaking to Stabroek News yesterday, Town Clerk Royston King said, “The reason why the council is doing this is because we have been… reaching out to property owners, particularly those who have been in default and we have been pleading with them to come in and settle their accounts and many of them, notwithstanding the fact that we have been giving amnesties…, have not come in to settle their accounts.”
