Sec. 21-270.
Scavenger sale registration.
No person, except a unit of local
government, shall be eligible to bid or to receive a certificate of purchase
who did not register with the county collector at least 5 business days in
advance of the first day of the sale under Section 21-260. The collector may
charge, for each registration, a fee of not more than $50 in counties with less
than 3,000,000 inhabitants and not more than $100 in counties of 3,000,000 or
more inhabitants. Registration shall be made upon such forms and according to
such regulations as the county collector deems necessary in order to effect
complete and accurate disclosure of the identity of all persons beneficially
interested, directly or indirectly, in each sale under Section 21-260. The
information to be disclosed shall include, but not be limited to, the name,
address and telephone number of the purchaser to whom the clerk and collector
will be requested to issue a certificate of purchase; if the purchaser is a
corporation, the place of incorporation and the names and addresses of its
shareholders unless the corporation is publicly held; if the purchaser is a
partnership, the names and addresses of all general and limited partners; if
the purchaser is doing business under an assumed business name, the county
where such name is registered and the names, addresses and telephone numbers of
all persons having an ownership interest in the business; and the identity and
location of any other tax delinquent property owned by the bidder and
purchaser.
Every application for certificate of purchase and form for registration
authorized and required by this Section and Section 21-275 shall be executed
under penalty of perjury as though under oath or affirmation, but no
acknowledgement is required.
