NOTICE
The Bellingham Treasurer-Collector, Grace L. Devitt, has retained the Boston law firm Merrick, Louison &
Costello, LLP to assist her office in the collection of delinquent
real estate accounts. Given recent reductions in State aid to
municipalities and the decline in the economy over the past few
years, the Office of the Treasurer/Collector will be implementing
measures to increase the efficiency of its tax collection efforts,
including the acceleration of tax taking procedures and Land Court
tax foreclosure actions. Those foreclosure actions now pending
in Court will be transferred to Merrick, Louison & Costello, LLP
for further action, and the firm will be contacting delinquent
property owners shortly in an effort to collect taxes due to the
Town prior to commencement of new legal proceedings.
Delinquent taxpayers should be aware that recent amendments to the
Massachusetts General Laws allow municipalities to recover all costs
incurred in tax foreclosure actions from the property owners in the
event they seek to redeem their interest in tax title properties.
