Ryan announced that his office will “hold a public auction of tax-defaulted property,” and the “parcels become subject to sale by the Tax Collector at the end of 5 years from the date of tax default.”

Ryan in a release Wednesday said the “available parcels will be offered for sale on an oral bid basis for at least the established minimum bid. The parcels will be sold to the highest bidder.”

The primary purposes of the public auction are to first “collect the unpaid delinquent property taxes that are owed to the county,” and secondly, “to return the property to a tax-paying status.

Ryan said he “would like to remind interested parties that these parcels must be withdrawn from the sale in the event that the tax amounts due are paid by the day prior to the auction.”

The list on the county tax collector’s website included five properties to be auctioned for taxes, and showed one that was redeemed and one that was withdrawn. Two of the properties are in Camanche Village and also “are, or may, be subject to delinquent bonds, assessments and/or special district liens under the improvement bond act” or a “Mello-Roos community facilities act” bond.

Ryan said parcels may also be withdrawn in the event that certain conditions exist that affect the sale parcels. Information regarding the auction rules, the terms and conditions of the sale, and a list of the parcels being offered for sale, are available on the County’s web-site.

The tax default auction is set for 10 a.m. Wednesday, March 9 in the Board of Supervisors’ Chambers, in the Amador County Administration Center, at 810 Court Street in Jackson. For more information before the sale, contact The Amador County Treasurer and Tax Collector Michael E. Ryan.
