Vanderburghurgh County Lists Tax Sale Properties

BY CCO STAFF

August 1, 2024

Vanderburgh County this week listed more than 600 properties where it will attempt to sell the tax liability to recover more than $4.5 million in unpaid taxes.  The properties meet the minimum requirement of missing tax payments for 18 months.

The sale will occur on September 17 at the Old National Events Plaza.

Some highlights from the list:

The property with the most taxes owed is two parcels at 3200 North Sixth Avenue, with a minimum bid of $816,548 and $619,920. Another connected parcel on Allens Lane has $560,000 in unpaid taxes. This location is the former Miller Plating. It is owned by MPMF Realty LLC, which dissolved in 2011. The government spent millions of dollars cleaning the contamination left by the business.

The Miller Plating building was demolished years ago.

The highest unpaid tax bill for a multi-family home is $21,186 for a 10-bedroom and bathroom property at 521 SE First St. It is owned by a company that told the Treasurer’s Office to send the tax bill to an address in Idaho, but registered the business in Indianapolis with a California address.

pastedGraphic_1.pngThe company with the most delinquent properties isn’t even a valid corporation anymore. Masrani Global LLC of Salem, Indiana dissolved in 2023. This company has 24 properties with a combined $66,000 tax liability. All properties are in residential neighborhoods, and the county once auctioned many due to unpaid taxes.

Children from ECHO Housing To Experience a Back-To-School Bash With Community Partners

EVANSVILLE, IN: Getting ready for a new school year can be exciting. Picking out new shoes and students, and a fond memory for many adults. However, not every student gets to experience creating those memories. For the last several years, ECHO Housing and Community Development has been able to bring this experience to the children living ECHO Housing units. This year that experience is expanding with new partnerships.

On July 31st from 12-2 pm, 8+ community partners will come together to hold a Back to School Bash for 45 children and dependents residing in various ECHO Housing and Community Development housing programs. The event will take place at St. Lucas UCC/Fresh Air Church at 33 W. Virginia Street.

The community partners include St. Lucas UCC, Fresh Air Church, St. Paul’s UCC, Pay it Forward Local, Shoe Sensation, Evansville Police Department, Kona Ice, Access, and several private donors of ECHO Housing and Community Development.

The children will be able to pick out their own backpacks, receive all the school supplies on their lists, get new school uniforms, pick out new shoes, have a hot dog lunch, and free KonaIce. ECHO Housing will also provide games and activities for the children. It should be a day of making fun memories for the children, and their families, as well as for the partners and volunteers who are making it happen.

All of us at ECHO Housing and Community Development are truly grateful to our extraordinary community partners for their dedication and generosity. We are excited to see our children start school with everything they need to be successful students.
