A public auction for the sale of surplus property is planned for Saturday, October 7, 2000, at 10:00 a.m., at the Municipal Operations Facility on Airport Road.
Town departments have identified one hundred forty-four (144) items of personal property which are no longer needed, are beyond practical repair or have completed their useful life.
