Long overdue tax sales urged for Franklin County properties
Respondents back overdue annual property tax sales as Franklin County commissioners back the plan. The foreclosure sale, likely in late April or early May, would be the first in eight years and aims to recover more than 160000 across 32 delinquent properties, some overdue since 1991. Delinquencies range from 472 to 15558. A court ruling next week may finalize the list of homeowners and amounts owed.
