DAtEOs Thin day of G� , 1985. 'f6mWagoner rbyor e m d eaole Councilmember 1 —W1141am J. q3ightant City Nimager John Wise. Councilmember I Memo To: Kenai City Council From: Charles A. Brown, Finance Director da 4 Date: 4/22/88 Subject: Request for 90-day delay in Assessment Foreclosures A request was made at the 4/20/88 Council meeting for a 90-day delay in the assessment foreclosure proceedings that have recently been published in the Clarion. As our attorney has indicated, if we delay foreclosure on some parcels, we probably should delay on all parcels, then start over with the procedure in 90 days. I agree with Council that there are positive aspects of working with the debtors. However, you've heard all of the positive aspects already; I'll only deal with the negatives. 1) Foreclosure is the only effective tool at our option to force payment of assessments. If word gets out that the City is not serious about foreclosure, then I can only suspect that future collections will be more difficult. 2) It cost the City about $2,000 (not counting City salaries) to take the foreclosure proceedings this far. If we do it again, figure another $2,000. That cost is added to the redemption price, or the minimum bid price if we sell the parcels. Therefore, starting over will penalize those owners who have not requested a delay because it will increase their redemption price. Alternatively, if we sell the lots, the higher minimum bid price will make the lots harder to market. New To: Kenai City Council " 4 From: Charles A. Brown, Finance Director �qQ Date: 4/22/88 !

I M CITY OF KENAI Oil ears" od 4" MO f== KWW ALAfKA NNt ai' Im TO: Mayor and Council Members City of Kenai FR J. Rogers, City Attorney *thy of Kenai DATE: April 25, 1988 RE: Special Assessment Foreclosures In response to numerous questions from the Council regarding procedures and rights of redemption as to realty which is the subject of the special assessment foreclosure, I have prepared the following which should answer most asked and anticipated questions. Special assessments are liens second only to municipal tax liens, AS 29.46.080, which are collected pursuant to AS 29.45.320-470. Initially, a petition for judgment and a certified copy of the foreclosure list is filed with the Superior Court and must contain the information dictated by AS 29.45.330: a. List of interested parties in alphabetical order. b. Last known -owner. c. Property description for assessment roil purposes. d. Years and amounts of delinquencies. e. Penalty and interest due. f. A statement that the list is available for public inspection at "the Clerk's office" (the statute does not specify whether it is the Court Clerk's office or the City Clerk's office). g. A statement that the list has been presented to Superior Court with a petition for judgment and decree. --The next step is to publish this foreclosure list -once -a -week for - four (4) consecutive weeks in a newspaper of local circulation. -1- 3 Within ten days of the first publication, as set for in the above -paragraph, notice is sent by certified mail to the last known address of the owner. This notice is a copy of the foreclosure list which advises the owner that the foreclosure list and the petition for judgment have been filed in the Court. The notice also must describe the property and list the amount due. Thirty (30) days after the last publication .of the foreclosure list, if there have been no sufficient objections, a motion is filed for judgment and a decree. This proposed judgment shall provide a blank to be filled in by the Court showing the date that the judgment and decree of foreclosure is signed. Next there is a waiting period during which properties may be redeemed for one year and ten days from the date written by -the Court in the judgment decree and foreclosure list. Thus, this one year and ten day period marks the anniversary of the judgment and decree by the Court. A redemption period expiration notice is then published in the newspaper of local circulation pursuant to A8 49.45.220 which notice should contain: a. Date of redemption. b. Date of expiration of the redemption period which date will be thirty (30) days after the first publication of redemption period expiration notice. c. A warning that all properties sold under the judgment and decree, unless redeemed, shall be deeded to the municipality immediately upon expiration of the redemption period and that every right of interest that a person has in the property will be forever forfeited to the municipality. Within five (5) days of the first publication of the notice of expiration and redemption period, a copy of the notice published in the paper is mailed, certified return receipt, to each record owner and all holders of mortgages or other liens of record on the property. After the expiration of the redemption period (thirty days after the first publication of the notice of redemption period expiration), a request for a Clerk's Deed is filed with the Court. Upon receipt of the Clerk's Deed, it is recorded and a calendaring notice and internal calendaring notice is made that in two (2) years, these properties are to be sold. The two-year waiting period prior to sale insures that challenges to the sale by former record owners are completely barred. -2- L r— Two (a) years from the filing of the Clerk's Deed, an ordinance is prepared declaring that the properties are needed for a public purpose. The properties' legal description should be set out in the ordinance. Further, the legal description should be published four (4) times in the paper of local circulation along With a notice of the ordinance hearing listing the properties by legal description with the former owner's name. The City Clerk then mails, within five (5) days of the first publication, a copy of the notice of publication of the ordinance to the former record owners as they appear on the assessment roil. Subsequent to the publication described above and enactment of the ordinance, the properties may be sold. However, the record owner has the right to repurchase prior to the effective date of the ordinance. All property acquired by a municipality pursuant to a special assessment foreclosure, should be sold for cash. No terms! TJR/clf =3- - CLERK'S DUTIES 1. Council: a. Board of Adjustment b.
