Middlesbrough Council is looking to sell off scores of its buildings as it attempts to avoid issuing a bankruptcy notice.
The council reported in August that it was at risk of issuing a section 114 notice, predicting a budget overspend of almost £12m.
An asset review will be discussed by the council’s executive this week. It proposes the closure and sale of council-owned buildings and assets, including the town hall, community centres, car parks, a golf centre and development sites.
The sale of these assets could bring in an estimated £33m, according to the report.
