Stratford Selectboard waives tax deed on three properties as process advances
Summary
At its Aug. 25 meeting the Stratford Selectboard voted to waive tax deed on three of eight properties identified in the town’s tax-deeding process; the Tax Collector’s Office will send official notification letters. The board cited state statute (RSA) requirements for the procedure.
Meeting participant Maryann Lister told the Stratford Selectboard that the town’s Tax Collector had advised the board the tax-deeding process had reached its final stage and that the board needed to determine which properties to waive and which to take by tax deed.
The Selectboard voted to waive three of the original eight properties identified in the process. "The Tax Collector advised the Board that the Tax Deeding process has reached its final stage and the Board must now determine which properties to waive and which to take by Tax Deed," Maryann Lister said. The board instructed the Tax Collector’s Office to send official notification letters to affected property owners.
The meeting record notes the process is mandated by state statute (RSA); no statute citation or vote tally for the waiver was provided in the minutes. The transcript does not list names of the properties involved or a roll-call vote. The board did not provide further details about timelines for notifications or potential town actions following the mailing of notices.
Next steps: the Tax Collector’s Office will send the official notifications to property owners as the process continues to completion.
