Commission removes Patricia Morris parcel from upcoming tax sale
Summary
The board agreed to withhold Patricia Morris's parcel (1C-0314-0000) from the May 2026 tax sale after staff said she had made significant payments and expected to be current by the sale date.
County staff described a request from Patricia Morris to remove parcel 1C-0314-0000 from the May 2026 tax sale. Staff noted the owner is approximately five years delinquent but had made recent payments (nearly $2,000 or more) and indicated an intention to pay the remaining balance before the sale; staff had withheld the parcel from title companies pending the meeting. The commission voted to remove the parcel from the May tax sale.
Commissioners said the county's goal is to avoid tax-sale outcomes when owners are making a good-faith effort to become current. The chair noted that tax sales are not a general revenue source for the county and that proceeds go to satisfy liens and state distributions.
