After deducting from the proceeds of the sale
the expense of making the sale, the amount of any storage and any
other repair or towing charges incurred during the period in which
the property was in custody, and after the payment of all liens to
which the property was subject in the order of their priority, the
remaining balance, if any, shall be delivered to the Town Clerk to
be disposed of as directed by the Council. All lost, abandoned, or
stolen money shall also be paid to the Town Clerk to be disposed of
as directed by the Council, if the money is unclaimed.
The certificate of the Chief of Police that
he has sold any personal property to a purchaser, as provided in this
chapter, shall constitute sufficient evidence of title to any property
so sold in order to enable any such purchaser to obtain a certificate
of title and registration from the appropriate commissioner, commission
or department, which shall recognize the certificate of the Chief
of Police as sufficient authority for the issuance of a certificate
of title registration.
