Clarifies registration and purchaser requirements for tax-abandoned land auctions in West Virginia.

The bill amends the West Virginia Revenue Code to clarify the registration and purchaser requirements for tax-abandoned land auctions. It specifies that bidders must register with the Auditor's office and meet certain criteria, such as not having failed to make payments at prior auctions or being delinquent in property tax payments. The bill also allows the Auditor to refuse to sell to bidders who do not meet these requirements. Additionally, it outlines the process for selling unsold lands and the priority for such sales.
