Subject: 2022 Tax Sale Update
There are now 3 properties in Blue Springs still scheduled for the annual Court Administrator’s Delinquent Land Tax
Foreclosure Sale. The Independence portion of the tax sale begins on August 15. Because they are all existing homes, I
believe that it’s likely they will either be redeemed prior to the sale, or will sell during the sale.
I’ll continue to check the status to report to Land Bank.
