FIFE COUNCIL have been forced into spending more money on looking after their empty buildings after their insurance company stopped providing cover. The change of approach towards their vacant properties – there are currently 49, some of which have been disused for at least 10 years – will come at a cost with more inspections, CCTV and improved security measures. Councillors were told last Thursday that the council s insurers, Zurich Municipal, will no longer provide any cover for empty buildings while an alternative policy puts the local authority at greater risk. Michael O Gorman, service manager for estates, explained: We believe the new arrangements are good practice, they do incur greater cost but they are necessary to satisfy the insurance requirements.
