§ 37-a. Resale of lands.

If the total amount of\nsuch charges be not bid therefor, he shall purchase the same for the\nstate at such amount. If on any such sale, the commissioner becomes the\npurchaser in behalf of the state, in case such lands are not within the\nforest preserve, the commissioner shall direct, whether the land\npurchased be offered for sale by him at the price for which it was\npurchased, or a new appraisement made thereof under his direction. He\nmay sell such lots to any person applying to purchase the same, for the\namount at which the same was purchased for the state, on the like terms\nand conditions as he is authorized to sell the unappropriated state\nlands. If the commissioner directs a new appraisal of such lands, the\ncommissioner may sell the same as prescribed in this section for the\nprices at which the lots are respectively appraised.\n
