Council is always buying up empty buildings. In fact I think they own The Crown amongst others.It's a private, failed business. I don't know what the Council or the Mayor are supposed to do?
If the council went round the town buying every failed, skint business, they'd be in an even bigger financial hole that they're in now.
The owners of the building will be making money from the sale, more than they're getting from operating it as it is now. It's their decision.
