PROVIDENCE – The city’s annual tax sale, originally scheduled for May 14, has been moved to Aug. 26, according to the mayor’s office.

The delay comes after several City Council members called on the city to postpone its sale amid economic hardship posed by COVID-19, which may have rendered some residents unable to pay property taxes.
