(a) Sale of adjudicated property may be made by public sale, in accordance with the provisions of R.S. 47:2201 et seq. (b) Minimum bid; appraisal. (1) In the event the city government elects to set a dollar amount as a minimum bid for the sale of adjudicated property, the minimum bid for the sale of adjudicated property shall include the following: a. The total amount of all statutory impositions of the city government and of any other political subdivision of the state affecting the property; b. The total amount of all governmental liens affecting the property; c. The costs of adjudication of the property to the city government at the tax sale of the property, if any; and d. The costs of sale of the adjudicated property by public sale. (2) The city government may, however, by special ordinance provide that the sale of adjudicated property by public sales shall occur after appraisal of the property, rather than as set forth in subsection (b)(1) of this section; in accordance with R.S. 47:2202, in which case the city government shall appoint a licensed appraiser to appraise and value the property. In such case, the minimum bid at the first public sale of the property shall be at least two-thirds of the appraised value of the property. If the property fails to sell at the first public sale, the minimum bid at the second public sale of the property shall be one-third of the appraised value of the property. If the property fails to sell at the second public sale, the city government may, by subsequent ordinance, sell the property at the minimum bid set forth in subsection (b)(1) of this section. (3) In addition, the city government may, by special ordinance, provide for the sale of adjudicated property at public sale to the highest bidder without setting a minimum bid or requiring an appraisal, in accordance with R.S. 47:2202(A), as amended. (c) The sale of adjudicated property by public sale may be initiated either by the city government or by any person, in accordance with the following procedures: (1) Initiation of public sale by city government.

The municipal address of the adjudicated property to be sold at public sale; c. The name and address of the owner of record of the property, as reflected in the records of the assessor’s office, as of the date of the tax sale by which the property was adjudicated to the city government or its predecessors. d. In the event the city government elects to set a dollar amount as a minimum bid for the sale of adjudicated property, the ordinance shall state the minimum bid for which the property shall be sold. In the event the city government provides that the sale of adjudicated property shall occur after appraisal, as provided for by subsection (b)(2) of this section, the ordinance shall state that the sale shall be subject to appraisal. In the event the city government provides that the sale of adjudicated property shall be without a minimum bid or appraisal, as provided in subsection (b)(3) of this section, the ordinance shall state that the sale shall be to the highest bidder with no minimum bid or appraisal. (2) Initiation by persons. Whenever a person desires to initiate the sale of adjudicated property by public sale and the city government, in turn, is willing to sell the property, the person so desiring shall submit an application to the administrative department of the city government, requesting the sale of such property, which application shall contain the following: a. A legal description of property (lot, square and subdivision name, if applicable); b. Municipal address of property; c. Name of the owner of record of the property at the time of adjudication and the year of the tax sale; d. Affidavit certifying the prospective purchaser is not a member of immediate family of property owner or entity in which owner has a substantial economic interest; e.

A deposit, by cash, certified cashier’s check, or money order, in an amount as established by the city council form time to time, to cover the expenses of the public sale, including advertising, appraisals (if applicable), legal fees of the city government in connection with the sale, title abstract and mortgage certificate costs and all other costs associated with the public sale. 2. In the event the applicant is the highest bidder at the public sale of the adjudicated property, any unused funds on deposit shall be applied to the purchase price of the property sold at the public sale. If there are remaining funds on deposit after the payment of the purchase price of the property sold at the public sale, said remaining funds shall, upon authentication of the sale as described hereinbelow, be refunded to the applicant. 3. In the event the applicant fails to be the highest bidder at the public sale of the adjudicated property, this deposit shall be refunded to the applicant. In the event, however, that no one at the public sale bids up to the minimum amount, if any, required for the sale of the property, then the deposit shall be retained by the city government to pay the costs and expenses of the public sale; provided, however, that any monies remaining on deposit after the payment of said costs and expenses shall be refunded to the applicant. (d) Advertising. (1) In the event of initiation of sale of adjudicated property by public sale by the city government or any person, the public sale shall be advertised twice in the official journal of the city government, the first advertisement being at least 30 days prior to the date of the public sale, and the second advertisement being no more than seven days prior to the date of the public sale.
