  6. The selectmen reviewed the list of foreclosed properties with treasurer Marti Gross. She stated that a couple of the (previous) property owners have made partial payments. As a last effort to work with the foreclosed owners, the selectmen agreed to send a letter to all concerned demanding payment in full by December 31, 2014. All foreclosed properties that are not paid in full at that time will be put out to bid in the spring of 2015. The selectmen feel that this is a fair and final step.
