The County of Saratoga may retain title to tax-acquired lands.
After approval and public advertisement by the Equalization
and Assessment Committee, or its successor, of a list of County-owned
lands proposed for auction, the County of Saratoga shall offer all
approved parcels at public auction for purchase by the highest responsible
bidders.
When the Committee determines that another disposition method
is appropriate, then the Committee shall implement that alternative,
subject always to the final approval by an affirmative majority vote
of the Board of Supervisors.
When the Board of Supervisors, or its successors, finds that
it is in the public interest to convey tax-acquired lands to other
municipal or not-for-profit corporations, such conveyances shall be
conditioned upon timely payment to the County Treasurer of all delinquent
taxes, penalties and interest, and any subsequent conveyance by such
proposed recipient shall be subject to such terms as the Board of
Supervisors, or its successors, deems appropriate at the time of such
subsequent conveyance.
