Bill > SB1495

This bill modifies provisions related to delinquent property taxes by allowing a tax collector, at their discretion and if good cause is shown, to waive all or part of the interest and penalties owed on overdue property taxes, which is a change from the current law that mandates an 18% penalty on each year's delinquency, with a limited exception for lands redeemed before sale. Additionally, for counties not operating under a charter form of government or cities not within a county, the bill increases the fee for making and recording delinquent land lists from ten cents per tract or lot to five dollars per tract or lot for both the collector and the clerk, with this additional amount being directed to the county employees' retirement fund.
