What’s in it

This bill relates to the validity of certificates of the treasurer issued by county treasurers. Current law requires a subdivision plat to be accompanied with a certificate of the treasurer indicating that the land is free from certified taxes and that any certified special assessments are secured by a bond that is double the amount of the lien. The bill provides that a certificate of the treasurer shall expire upon the next annual delivery of the tax list from the county auditor to the county treasurer. An expired certificate of the treasurer shall not be considered an acceptable document presented to the county recorder for recording.
