Six more charges have been laid against former Ipswich mayor Paul Pisasale as part of an investigation by Queensland's Crime and Corruption Commission.
Mr Pisasale, 66, has today been accused of corruption, misconduct in public office, perjury, possessing a restricted drug and two counts of fraud.
The CCC said the official corruption charge related to corrupt payments allegedly made by a property developer.
The CCC will allege the perjury offence was committed at an investigative hearing conducted as part of a CCC investigation.
It said as the investigation was ongoing and the matter was now before the court, the CCC could not comment further.
Mr Pisasale has been issued with notice to appear in court on November 7.
The former mayor is now facing a total of 11 charges, which also include one count of extortion and two counts of attempting to pervert the course of justice.
A court granted Mr Pisasale bail in August.
At that hearing, Mr Pisasale was told he must not speak to any Ipswich City Council employees as a condition of his bail.
