Town reports tax-deed notices mailed April 18; three addresses removed from list

Town staff told the Woodstock selectboard that official tax-deed notices were mailed to property owners and lienholders on April 18. According to the update, three properties have been removed from the list since the last board update.

Staff described the current phase as the formal notice period following an earlier courtesy letter. Recipients were given two weeks from the mailing date; the transcript records a deadline identified as May 20. For two of the removed properties staff said they know the cases are closed; for one property (132 Paradise) a signature was recorded on the lien notice but staff could not decipher the signer’s name and said they were monitoring the situation to determine whether a new owner signed for delivery.

Board members did not take further action on the item during the meeting; the matter remains with town staff for monitoring and any next steps required under tax-deed procedures.
