Dozens of properties owners in the Queanbeyan region will have their homes and businesses sold by force if they don’t pay thousands of dollars in overdue rates payments owed to the local council.

Queanbeyan-Palerang Regional Council plans to auction 38 properties that have thousands of dollars in overdue rates owing on them.

The council’s general manager says “every effort” has been made to contact the property owners, who have today been named in local newspapers alongside the amount they owe.

The auctions are scheduled to go ahead on May 2.
