384.69 - PROPERTY SOLD AT TAX SALE.

        384.69  PROPERTY SOLD AT TAX SALE.         Property against which a special assessment has been levied for      public improvements may be sold for any sum of principal or interest      due and delinquent, at any regular or adjourned tax sale in the same      manner with the same forfeitures, interest, right of redemption,      certificates, and deeds, as for the nonpayment of ordinary taxes.      The purchaser at a tax sale, other than the county, takes the      property charged with the lien of the remaining unpaid installments      and interest.  When bonds have been issued in anticipation of special      assessments and interest for which property is to be sold, the city      may be a purchaser and is entitled to all rights of purchasers at tax      sales.  The proceeds subsequently realized from sales of property so      purchased by the city must be credited to the funds of the city from      which deficiencies on the improvement were paid, or if there were no      deficiencies, to the general fund.
