Taunton earns almost $1M in land auctions

Published April 29th, 2007


Two parcels of land have brought $958,000 into the city coffers to boost next year’s budget.

Auctioneer Daniel J. Flynn was upbeat as he auctioned off the two tax title properties Friday afternoon. Hearing about the influx of money, city officials were, too.

“I’m ecstatic,” said Mayor Charles Crowley when told the city would collect $129,000 for a parcel on Johnson Street that had been the Old County School.

“The parcel is in an urban residential area and a single family home or duplex could go there by right,” said Asst. Mayor Gill Enos.
