AI Summary

  • Changes "shall" to "must" throughout sections 78h and 78k to update legislative language regarding property tax foreclosure procedures and requirements.

  • Adds new subsection (3)(d) allowing property to be withheld from foreclosure if a payment was made for taxes levied after the delinquent taxes being foreclosed, provided the payment equals or exceeds the redemption amount, with notification to occur via a department of treasury-prescribed form.

  • Authorizes foreclosing governmental units to cancel foreclosures by recording a certificate of error if a payment was made for later-levied taxes that met redemption requirements, without prejudicing the taxing unit's lien or the unit's right to include the property in future foreclosure proceedings.

  • Clarifies language regarding lien extinguishment and title vesting in foreclosure judgments by replacing "pursuant to" with "under" when referencing the natural resources and environmental protection act.

  • Makes the act effective only upon enactment of Senate Bill No. 725 of the 100th Legislature.
