The Manchester Board of Directors is scheduled to meet Tuesday evening for one of its regular meetings. One of the items on the agenda could decide the fate of the blighted Nichols properties on Broad Street.
The town is in the process of foreclosing on the properties, but the Board of Directors has an item on its agenda to "resolve three tax foreclosure appeals" for a payment of $62,500.
The meeting will be held at 7 p.m. in the Lincoln Center Hearing Room, 494 Main St. The full agenda can be viewed here.

Yeah, the $62,500 is basically to purchase the properties for the town, which would then be able to do whatever they wanted with them, which I'm assuming would be to tear them down. Even though the town is foreclosing on the properties, there are appeals being filed and this thing seems to be dragging on and on. The purchase is to expedite the process, I was told by the Town Attorney. I will have a story on tonight's meeting following up on this for tomorrow morning.
