Revere begins foreclosure action against dog track

REVERE (AP) — A dog racing track in Revere faces foreclosure proceedings for allegedly failing to pay its taxes.

The city's finance director told The Boston Globe that Wonderland Greyhound Park owes about $789,000 in back taxes over the last two years, along with more than $16,000 in overdue water and sewer bills.

Mayor Thomas Ambrosino was unable to explain to the city council last week why Wonderland was able to renew its annual liquor and restaurant licenses despite a lien placed on the property in June 2007. The mayor said the licenses would not be renewed in December if the taxes remain delinquent.

A message left for the track's president, Richard Dalton, was not immediately returned.
