If postponement is more than 8 weeks, what is required?

• A. Not required
• B. Only for a meeting
• C. New tax sale and new public notice
• D. Only a revised advertisement

Answer: (C)

When a tax sale postponement extends beyond eight weeks, the process must be restarted with a new tax sale and a fresh public notice. This ensures that all parties receive proper and up-to-date notification and that the sale complies with statutory timelines and due process requirements. Simply updating a notice isn’t enough because the extended delay changes the terms and trust in the original notice, so the sale must be reissued and re-advertised.
