Tax Sales Study Committee; reconstitute.
SB 2472 reconstitutes Mississippi's Tax Sales Study Committee, which examines issues with the state's tax sale process - including unmerchantable property titles, blight from current sales, and procedural inconsistencies. The committee, composed of seven members (three Senate appointees, three House appointees, a chancery clerk, a tax assessor, and the Secretary of State as nonvoting member), is extended to dissolve by January 1, 2027, instead of 2026. The bill ensures all prior appointments and procedures remain valid for the reconstituted committee and requires state agencies to provide data and support upon request. This procedural bill affects state agencies, local officials involved in tax sales, and the committee’s ongoing work to evaluate reforms.
