Annually by the first day of December, the treasurer and the	34
prosecuting attorney each shall submit a report to the board	35
regarding the use of the moneys appropriated to their respective	36
offices from the delinquent tax and assessment collection fund.	37
Each report shall specify the amount appropriated to the office	38
during the current calendar year, an estimate of the amount so	39
appropriated that will be expended by the end of the year, a	40
summary of how the amount appropriated has been expended in	41
connection with delinquent tax collection activities, and an	42
estimate of the amount that will be credited to the fund during	43
the ensuing calendar year.	44

(B) In a county having a population of more than one hundred	45
thousand according to the department of development's 2006 census	46
estimate, from money appropriated to each office from the	47
county's delinquent tax and assessment collection fund under	48

corporation, the county treasurer and prosecuting attorney may	54

foreclosed residential nuisances, including paying the costs of	56
securing such buildings, lot maintenance, and demolition. At the	57

(3) Making unsubstantiated statements as to the future	71
direction of interest rates, or one-sided representations about	72
the cash savings or expanded buying power to be realized from a	73
loan that may result in a significant increase in payment	74

(4) Any combination of factors caused by obscuring a	76
significant risk under the loan that results in unfavorable and	77
unjustifiable loan terms for a borrower.	78

proceedings in partition, or taken by the election of any of the	80
parties to such proceedings, or real estate is sold at judicial	81
sale, or by administrators, executors, guardians, or trustees, the	82
court shall order that the taxes, penalties, and assessments then	83
due and payable, and interest thereon, that are or will be a lien	84
on such land or real estate at the time the deed is transferred	85
following the sale, be discharged out of the proceeds of such sale	86
or election. For purposes of determining such amount, the county	87
treasurer mayshall estimate the amount of taxes, assessments,	88
interest, and penalties that will be payablea lien on the land or	89
real estate at the time the deed of the property is transferred to	90
the purchaser. If the county treasurer's estimate exceeds the	91
amount of taxes, assessments, interest, and penalties actually	92
payablethat are a lien when the deed is transferred to the	93
purchaser, the officer who conducted the sale shall refund to the	94
purchaser the difference between the estimate and the actual	95
amount actually payableof the lien. If the amount of taxes,	96
assessments, interest, and penalties actually payablethat are a	97
lien when the deed is transferred to the purchaser exceeds the	98
county treasurer's estimate, the officer shall certify the amount	99
of the excess to the treasurer, who shall enter that amount on the	100
real and public utility property tax duplicate opposite the	101
property; the amount of the excess shall be payable at the next	102
succeeding date prescribed for payment of taxes in section 323.12	103

complete, the transferee may bring a civil action in an	452
appropriate court for the invalidation of the contract on the	453
basis of fraud or another appropriate cause of action. In addition	454
to the procedure or civil action for invalidating the transfer,	455
the transferee may bring a civil action for the recovery of any	456
damages that the transferee suffers that result from or are	457
related to the former use of the property in the illegal	458
manufacture of methamphetamine.	459

(D) A transferor of residential real property is not liable	460
in damages in a civil action for injury, death, or loss to person	461
or property that allegedly arises from any error in, inaccuracy	462
of, or omission of any item of information required to be	463
disclosed under division (B) of this section if the error,	464
inaccuracy, or omission was not within the transferor's actual	465
knowledge.	466

(E) Every prospective transferee of residential real property	467
who receives in accordance with division (B) of this section a	468
signed and dated copy of a methamphetamine disclosure notice shall	469
acknowledge receipt of the notice by doing both of the following:	470

(1) Signing and dating a copy of the notice;

471

(2) Delivering in the manner specified in division (I) of	472
section 5302.30 of the Revised Code a signed and dated copy of the	473
notice to the transferor or the transferor's agent or subagent.	474

(F) The specification of the item of information that must be	475
disclosed in the methamphetamine disclosure notice under division	476
(B) of this section does not limit or abridge any obligation to	477
disclose an item of information that is created by any other	478
provision of the Revised Code or the common law of this state or	479
that may exist in order to preclude fraud, either by	480
misrepresentation, concealment, or nondisclosure, in a transaction	481
involving the transfer of residential real property. The	482
disclosure requirements of this section do not bar, and shall not	483
be construed as barring, the application of any legal or equitable	484
defense that a transferor of residential real property may assert	485
in a civil action commenced against the transferor by a	486
prospective or actual transferee of that property.	487

(G) The right of rescission of a transfer agreement described	488
in division (C) of this section or the absence of that right does	489
not affect any other legal causes of action or other remedies that	490
a transferee or prospective transferee of residential real	491
property may possess against the transferor of that property.	492

Sec. 5321.041.  If a landlord of residential premises has	493
actual knowledge of the illegal manufacture of methamphetamine on	494
those premises, the landlord shall disclose that knowledge to any	495
prospective or current tenant of those premises. The disclosure	496
shall not include the names of the persons involved in the illegal	497
manufacture of methamphetamine. If a landlord fails to comply with	498
the disclosure required by this section, the tenant may terminate	499
the rental agreement for the residential premises and may bring a	500
civil action for the recovery of any damages for injury, death, or	501
loss to person or property that the tenant suffers that result	502
from or are related to the former use of the residential premises	503
in the illegal manufacture of methamphetamine.	504

Section 2. That existing sections 321.261, 323.47, and	505
5302.30 of the Revised Code are hereby repealed.	506
