Text

If real property designated as conservation land
has not been redeemed at the end of the two (2) year period, a fee
simple title to the real property, unencumbered in any way except by
the liens for school fund mortgages that are prior to the lien of the state
for taxes, is created ipso facto in the state. All existing tax liens of the
state upon the real property are considered terminated, and the county
auditor shall so certify to the Indiana department of administration.
