On Sept. 28, Millis town officials announced there are several "town owned parcels available for purchase" by any interested party.

The properties are located on or near the following streets/roads: Acorn, Boylston, Brandywine, Broad, Commonwealth, Congress, Court, Federal, George, Henry, Lincoln, Margo, Millis Heights, Morris, Pleasant, Ridge, Roosevelt, and Spencer.

The full list of 88 properties can be found at www.millisma.gov/article/3118877.

On Sept. 2, abutters received an "offer to sell land" from the town with the list of properties, their acreage, and assessed value. All properties are under one acre with an assed value of less than $2,500 each, except for a 2.25 acre parcel on Brandywine Terrace assessed at $68,500. Three of these parcels are on the Nov. 9 Fall Town Meeting warrant.

According to the abutter letter, "The Town has no planned uses for these Parcels and none of these Parcels, on their own, constitutes a buildable lot. It is believed that the highest and best use of these Parcels would be for combination or assemblage with adjacent property owned by abutters, such as yourselves."

The letter stated, "Since these Parcels have minimal assessed values, the Town may reject offers that don't either match or exceed the assessed values. Should you wish to purchase more than one Parcel, the offer must specify a bid price for each Parcel that you wish to purchase. Please note that we are bound to accept only those offers that are in the best interest of the Town. Should your offer be accepted by the Select Board, a routine purchase and sale agreement would be prepared for your consideration and execution."

Offers are due by Mon., Nov. 16, at noon, and should be sent to Town Administrator Michael Guzinski at [email protected] or mailed/delivered to his attention at 900 Main St., Room 220.
