§ 62-121. Division guidelines  


Latest version.
  • (a) Properties offered at the tax sale that are not bid on and purchased are struck off to the taxing jurisdiction that requested the sale. The taxing entity to whom the property is struck off is then allowed to sell the property in accordance with V.T.C.A., Tax Code § 34.05. If the property was not struck off to the county, the county may enter into an agreement with the taxing entity for the resale of properties within its jurisdiction. Once a tax property has been struck off to the county, or an agreement entered between the taxing entity and the county, the county public works department property division recommends using the guidelines set forth in this Code of Ordinances for sale and disposition of said property.

    (b) When a property is struck-off to the county the property will be added to the county's public works property division's published inventory of properties, advising the public that it is being offered for resale. All bids/offers must comply with the provisions of this chapter.
