Property Developers and those that want to own land will soon have more property to develop – After a vote from the Lake Charles city council to combine several state and local laws governing adjudicated properties in an effort to ultimately get some 375 properties back into a tax generating position.

Revenues from these adjudicated properties being sold ends up going back into city and taxing districts, though plans are to ask the city to cede the funds back to the Lake Charles North Redevelopment Authority, the primary agency initiating the sales process.

In essence adjudicated properties are those which lands including tracts of all sizes inside the taxing district has been abandoned, foreclosed on or otherwise vacated by the original owners long enough so that the city or parish can take action.
