They're buying the property, but won't tell us what they want with it.
St. Stephen Town Council passing a motion during last night's council meeting (November 26th) to purchase a section of land off Route 170, between Car Quest and a private farm, from the Dept of Transportation.
Mayor John Quartermain tells Tide News it's a prime piece of real estate. He said they intend to flip the property and make the town some revenue. However, he wouldn't give any further details on what the town plans on doing with the property. Quartermain says, "There's reasons, there are reasons and I can't go into it right now."
The pricetag on the property is $1700.
