Hundreds of publicly-owned buildings could soon be sold-off across Aberdeen to raise millions of pounds for council coffers.<\/h3>\nHundreds of publicly-owned buildings could soon be sold-off across Aberdeen to raise millions of pounds for council coffers.<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n
The Press and Journal<\/em> writes:<\/p>\n The cash-strapped local authority agreed to reduce its property holdings as part of last year\u2019s budget talks, as councillors tussled with options for cutting \u00a340 million. Now buyers with an interest in more than 300 sites across the city are being asked to make themselves known \u2013 and to tell officials which properties they would be most interested in purchasing. Aberdeen City Council has valued the lots at \u00a345 million, with hope funds raised can be put towards ongoing regeneration work.<\/p>\n \u2026SNP group leader on Aberdeen City Council, Alex Nicoll, said: \u2018The council must look to save money where it can and if selling off these buildings makes financial sense then that is what should be done.\u2019<\/p>\n
