This bill amends K.S.A. 79-2401a to modify the process for redeeming real estate bid off by the county for delinquent taxes and special assessments. Notably, it provides that for partial redemption of homesteads, payment of special assessments for years other than the year being redeemed is not required. The bill also clarifies the definitions of "abandoned building or structure" and specifies the conditions under which real estate can be redeemed, including the timeframes for redemption based on the type of property.

Additionally, the bill repeals the existing section of K.S.A. 79-2401a, thereby updating the legal framework governing property taxation and redemption processes. The changes aim to streamline the redemption process and alleviate some financial burdens on property owners, particularly those with homesteads. The act will take effect upon publication in the statute book.
