Bill Summary
Altering the requirements for providing notice of the tax sale of property in Washington County: increasing from one to two the number of notices required to be sent to the owner of property after the property is sold at a tax sale in Washington County; and requiring the second notice be sent within 15 days after the first required notice.
AI Summary
This bill alters the requirements for notifying property owners in Washington County about tax sales, specifically concerning the notices sent *after* a property has been sold. Currently, only one notice is required to be sent to the owner within 60 days of the sale, informing them about the sale, the amount owed, and their right to redeem the property. This bill mandates that a second notice be sent to the owner, and this second notice must be sent within 15 days of the first required notice. The purpose of these notices is to inform the owner that their property has been sold due to unpaid taxes and to outline the process and costs associated with redeeming their property before their ownership rights are legally foreclosed.
