Treasurer: 206 parcels listed for April trustee property auction; online sales boosted proceeds
Summary
County Treasurer Cheryl Paul told commissioners 206 parcels are scheduled for the April trustee property auction (April 14–18), with online sales producing substantially higher excess proceeds in recent years compared with in-person sales.
Elko County Treasurer Cheryl Paul presented the annual trustee property auction schedule and financial context, reporting that 206 parcels are currently listed for the April trustee property auction and that one parcel has been withdrawn at Roads Department request for road-material use. Paul said online auctions have increased excess proceeds compared with prior in-person sales.
Paul provided recent excess-proceeds figures: $942,000 in the first year of online sales, $534,000 in 2023 and $500,000 the previous year, and explained the process for returning excess proceeds to prior owners upon claim. Commissioners voted to approve the auction listing with an exemption for the roads-parcel withdrawal.
