The Times did more digging… “The latest home sale by the [Hercules Redevelopment] agency, in November, was a three-bedroom townhouse; one of the buyers listed in real estate industry records was a Hercules employee in 2008, according to a payroll list from that year. The price, about $387,000, was the same as the city paid to buy the house in August from the former owners, Ron Johnson and his wife; Johnson once worked as an independent contractor for NEO/AHSG, he said.“
