(1) Excepting tax liens of irrigation or drainage districts organized before the effective date of the Department of State Lands lien, whenever the State of Oregon acquires property or lands through foreclosure of a mortgage given to secure a loan from the Common School Fund and the state has received the sheriffs deed made as a result of such foreclosure proceedings and the period for redemption has expired, the county court, or board of county commissioners, of the county in which such lands are situated shall cancel on the county tax records all the unpaid taxes levied and assessed against the property. (2) At the time the sheriff issues a certificate of sale in the foreclosure proceedings of any department mortgage, the sheriff shall serve a copy of the certificate upon the county judge, or the chairperson of the board of county commissioners, of the county in which the foreclosure takes place. The county shall have a 60-day period from the date of the sheriffs certificate in which to redeem the land by paying the department the full amount of its investment in the land, including principal and interest, foreclosure charges, abstracting expense, and any other necessary expense incurred by the department in said foreclosure proceedings.
