Title
Autauga Co., real property sales, transfer of duties from judge of probate to revenue commissioner
Summary

HB470 moves Autauga County real estate tax sale and redemption duties from the judge of probate to the revenue commissioner, effective October 21, 2016.

What This Bill Does

In Autauga County, all duties, responsibilities, and liabilities related to real property sales for unpaid taxes and any redemptions will be handled by the revenue commissioner instead of the judge of probate. The judge of probate will no longer perform these duties, and the law takes steps to avoid conflicts with existing laws. The change becomes effective on October 21, 2016.

Who It Affects
  • Autauga County taxpayers and property owners involved in tax sales and redemptions, whose process will now be handled by the revenue commissioner instead of the judge of probate.
  • Autauga County judge of probate, who loses authority over real property tax sales and redemptions, and Autauga County revenue commissioner, who gains those duties.
Key Provisions
  • Transfers all duties, responsibilities, and liabilities regarding real property sales for failure to pay taxes and subsequent redemptions from the judge of probate to the revenue commissioner.
  • Applies only in Autauga County.
  • Repeals laws or parts of laws that conflict with this act.
  • Becomes effective October 21, 2016.
