In order to take part in the tax forfeited land auction there are some regulations in regards to your own property tax situation with the county:

"To be eligible to bid, a person cannot have any delinquent property taxes on property they already own in St. Louis County  People who have delinquent property taxes must first pay what they owe before purchasing at action or over the counter from the Available List."

This second tax forfeited land auction of the year is one of the ways in which St. Louis County gets unwanted parcels back to private ownership and on the tax rolls.  The county ha "nearly 900,000 acres of tax-forfeited land".  A large part of that land holding is "maintained for resource management, however the county also encourages the sale of land that is not suitable for management as a way to encourage development and increase the property tax base."
