The commission met with Collector Diane Livengood to review a sealed bid for Parcel 5102-16-000760 located at 403 S. Main Street in Rock Port. Collector Livengood reported that this property has been on the delinquent tax rolls since 2006, offered at every tax sale since the delinquent date with no bids and is a property that a sealed bid can be offered. The bid presented was from Javier Aranda, St. Joesph, Missouri, in the amount of $500. Collector Livengood reported that the bid covers all advertising costs and it would be great to get this property back on the tax rolls. The commissioners voted to accept the bid in the amount of $500.
