ADDENDUM 2

Monday, August 10, 2026

RFP # 1851 – Purchase of Delinquent Municipal Tax and Sewer Use Liens

Due: 3:00 p.m., Wednesday, August 12, 2026

To: All prospective Responders

Questions received by August 5, 2026 and answers.

1. § 7(a) requires the transmittal letter to include “the information requested in Section 6

herein.” Section 6 is Purchase of Future Assigned Liens; the content list is in Section 7.

Response: See amendment to RFP.

2. Qualification Reference Forms. The “Steps of the qualifying process” list on page P-19 of

the Proposer Qualification Form identifies “Qualification Reference Forms (3)” among

the documents that must be received. No such form appears in the RFP package. Please

provide the form or confirm that the professional and financial reference sections within

the Proposer Qualification Form satisfy this requirement.

Response: See amendment to RFP.

3. Future Assigned Liens — mandatory or optional. Section 6 of the RFP states that the

Proposer “shall also purchase all delinquent liens on subsequent Grand Lists for

properties on the Final List,” with payment due within forty-eight (48) days after the City

files the lien continuation certificate. Section 3 of the draft Agreement at Attachment B

states that the Purchaser “shall have the option, but not the obligation, to purchase such

Future Assigned Liens,” on a June 1 notice and June 15 election schedule. Please confirm

which provision governs, and if the Agreement governs, whether Section 6 of the RFP

will be conformed.

Response: See amendment to RFP.

4. Foreclosure moratorium scope. Page RFP-4 provides that the Proposer shall not

commence foreclosure with respect to any tax lien arising on an owner-occupied building

for one year from the assignment date. Section 4 of the draft Agreement provides that the

Purchaser shall not institute foreclosure on any Assigned Lien for one year from the date

the Assignment is recorded on the Milford Land Records. Please confirm whether the

moratorium applies to all Assigned Liens or only to owner-occupied properties, and

whether the one-year period runs from the assignment date or the recording date.

Response: The one-year moratorium applies to the commencement of foreclosure

proceedings on all assigned liens and is not limited to liens on owner-occupied properties.

The applicable statute does not distinguish between owner-occupied and non-owner-

occupied properties. The one-year period runs from the date of assignment.

5. Exceptions. Section 7 states that the City will not accept conditional proposals and

requires a statement accepting all terms and conditions contained in the RFP. Please

confirm whether a Proposer that notes a requested modification to the draft Agreement at

Attachment B would be treated as having submitted a conditional proposal.

Response: Minor requested modifications to the draft Agreement will not, by themselves,

cause a proposal to be considered conditional. However, material or substantive

modifications to the terms of the Agreement will not be accepted.

In response to questions 1, 2 and 3, attached as part of this Addendum is a revised

version (Rev 2) of RFP # 1831.

Note: a copy of RFP # 1851, Rev. 2 follows below beginning on the next page.
