Petition Derelict property owners pay higher tax plus implement forced action plan.

Britain has a vast amount of derelict buildings. Ranging from multi-million pound mansions on London's 'Billionaires Row' to buildings of cultural/historical significance. Redevelopment is required. Forcing higher tax and action/development plans would pressure owners towards development/sale.

More details Letting these buildings rot is atrocity when development and investment are an opportunity. Action is required to force change. http://www.theguardian.com/society/2014/jan/31/inside-london-billionaires-row-derelict-mansions-hampstead http://sheffieldoldtownhall.co.uk/ http://www.theurbanexplorer.co.uk/ https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=derelict+buildings+uk
