Brisbane council plans to sell eight properties over unpaid rates, some over 10 years old, to ensure fair contributions to local services.
Brisbane City Council is selling eight properties in suburbs including The Gap, Red Hill, Ashgrove, and Darra due to nearly $250,000 in unpaid rates, some dating back over a decade.
The move follows failed attempts to collect payments through in-person contact and legal action.
Council leaders say the threat of sale typically prompts resolution in similar past cases and stress the unfair burden on compliant ratepayers.
Officials acknowledge possible unintentional non-payment due to language or other barriers but affirm the need for accountability in maintaining equitable contributions to local services.
