Boyd for acquisition of property located at 73 Central Street. A real estate tax lien on property located at 73 Central Street matured in 2016 and the City took possession. Through an agreement approved in July 2016, the City agreed to convey title back to the previous owner, David S. Boyd, once the property has been renovated to correct all code deficiencies including fixing the fagade, sprinkler system, and creating commercial space on the first floor.

The owner has requested an extension of deadlines for completion of the first floor renovations. If approved, this order would authorize amending the agreement to include a deadline of December 31, 2016 for final plan submission and March 15, 2017 for the required renovations work to be complete. The amendment shall be in in a final form as acceptable to the City Solicitor or Assistant City Solicitor.
