I WILL NOT use the requested government records for a commercial purpose.
I AM NOT seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.
Records requested: Yes I am requesting all open municipal tax liens from 2024 and prior that still have a balance due.

Dear Jessalyn Walters,
Quick follow up question. From the list you sent over is your municipality selling or assigning liens at the moment.
Yours sincerely,

Please see the updated list, the Tax Collector ran a report for all open liens, not just municipal liens. Regardless, they are still not selling or being assigned at this time.
