Board approves assignment of county-held tax sale certificate for parcel behind 209 East Nishna
Summary
Page County Treasurer Angie Dow brought a request from a property owner to be assigned a county-held tax sale certificate on a strip behind 209 East Nishna; the board approved the assignment after Dow said taxes on the parcel have not been paid since 2019 and the county’s certificate dates to 2022.
Angie Dow, Page County treasurer, presented a request from property owner Linda Terry to be assigned a county-held tax sale certificate for a strip of land behind 209 East Nishna. Dow said the parcel has had unpaid taxes since 2019 and that the county has held a tax sale certificate on the property since 2022.
Dow explained her office’s typical process: requestors sign an agreement, pay up front for back taxes and associated costs, and often must obtain legal assistance and perform title searches before an assignment is granted. She said the county retains only a handful of county-held tax sale certificates—"probably less than 30"—and that the office prefers to process such transfers when requestors approach the treasurer rather than initiating outreach.
A board member moved to approve assignment of the county-held tax sale certificate (reference given in the transcript as "2022Dash22O10"). The motion carried with the board voting in favor. Dow was given signatures to proceed with the paperwork.
The board did not record additional conditions on the assignment in the meeting transcript; the treasurer indicated she would collect required up‑front payment and follow standard assignment procedures.
