Board signals assent to list several tax-foreclosed properties pending legal review
Summary
A staff member asked the board for permission to list multiple tax-foreclosed properties that completed the 90‑day redemption period; board members indicated assent in discussion, with final listing to proceed after attorney foreclosure review. Addresses mentioned included variants of 158 King Street and 2158 King Street.
At a town meeting, a staff member asked the board for permission to list several tax‑foreclosed properties for sale after the town’s attorneys complete a foreclosure review. The staff member said the properties have completed the 90‑day redemption process and are now ready to be listed once legal clearance is finished.
The staff member summarized the package and referenced specific properties, stating: “In your package, you see a list of actual closed properties. These are the ones that have gone through the 90 day process to let them redeem them.” The staff member asked the board, “Is the board good with me listing these once the attorneys, given the foreclosure review?”
Addresses mentioned in the discussion included what were recorded in the transcript as variants of “158 King Street” and “2158 King Street.” The recording of these addresses in the transcript is inconsistent; the town should confirm the correct street numbers before posting listings or public notices.
Board members responded in discussion with what the transcript records as brief affirmations and paperwork directions, and the staff member said they would “get those done ASAP.” The transcript contains no formal motion or roll‑call vote on the record in the excerpt provided; staff characterized the exchange as seeking and receiving the board’s practical approval pending attorney review.
Next steps: staff will proceed with attorney review and, if the foreclosure review is complete, prepare the properties for public listing. The meeting excerpt does not specify listing timelines, minimum prices, or marketing details, which are "not specified" in the record.
