Dave Waller was shocked when he received a property tax bill from the Town of Hull last year seeking to collect taxes on Graves Light, a lighthouse he had bought at a federal auction in 2013.
Waller got another surprise in the mail more recently, when the townâs tax collector sent him a letter saying that a âdate of takingâ would be announced soon.
