The owners of a Govanhill flat which was infested with pigeons and has been described as a “health hazard” have objected to a council plan to compulsory purchase the property.
Glasgow City Council wants to buy 3/1 178 Allison Street to allow Govanhill Housing Association to bring the property back into use, but the owners have claimed the move is “neither justified nor appropriate.”
Officials served a closing order on the flat five years ago as it did not meet the “tolerable standard” and has been branded a “danger” to neighbours.
