10-22-30. Presentation to county commissioners of uncollected distress warrants--Examination and transfer to uncollectible list. On the first day of each regular meeting of the board of county commissioners, the treasurer shall present all distress warrants returned by the sheriff uncollected. The board shall then examine such returns and, if satisfied from any report of the sheriff or treasurer or facts in its own knowledge, that the taxes described in any such warrant cannot be collected, it shall declare the same to be uncollectible and the treasurer shall thereupon place the same on the uncollectible list in a book provided for that purpose, and no distress warrant shall thereafter be issued therefor except on order of the board or on written demand of the sheriff.
