Norwich Commission Debates Purchase of Scrapyard

The property is being put up for auction.

NORWICH, CT — The Harbor Management Commission is debating whether Norwich should try to buy the former Shetucket Iron and Metal scrapyard along with another waterfront property.

The scrapyard is being auctioned July 29. It owes the city more than $62,000 in back taxes, according to The Day.

The property could still be used as a scrapyard if another scrap company buys it.
