No guarantees are being made by the Land Bank regarding the kinds of activities that will be undertaken by the Land Bank to return the properties to productive use. The Land Bank agrees to invoice the County yearly for 50% of the taxes collected by the 15th of January following the tax year for five (5) years after disposition.

The County understands that the Land Bank will attempt to return the property to productive use, which may include a non-taxable use, such as transfer to the County, School District, or for a charitable purpose. If the Land Bank is able to and does return the property to a taxable use, the County agrees, with regard to all taxes from the County on that property, that, for a period of five years after said property is transferred from the Land Bank, one-half of the taxes collected shall accrue to the benefit of the Land Bank, even though the same may be based on the tax assessed by the County and School District.

Exhibit B

City of Lebanon Land Bank Subsequent Buyer Pre-Qualification Program Purpose:

The Land Bank will then enter into an agreement with the subsequent buyer to sell them the property if the Land Bank does acquire the property at the Judicial Sale. The sales price to the subsequent buyer will be determined by the Land Bank’s policies. In pre-qualifying subsequent buyers CLLB will consider the following information: 1. Legal Status of the subsequent buyer including its organizational and financial structure 2. The subsequent buyer’s prior experience in developing and managing real property 3. An affidavit signed by the subsequent indicating that for any properties it currently owns there are:  no delinquent taxes  no delinquent municipal utilities  no outstanding code violations or previous convictions for failure to maintain property  no outstanding municipal liens
