This year’s tax sale for the Town of Neepawa will see four properties change hands, unless their owners come up with the necessary cash. Over the last couple of weeks, the Town has advertised the four properties which are being sold due to unpaid taxes from the 2014 year.

The properties will be sold by public auction on Nov. 3, at the Neepawa Council chambers. The reserve bids established by the Town include all outstanding taxes and fees up until present.
